Common questions
How far can the Amcrest 5MP Turret PoE Camera, UltraHD Outdoor IP Camera with Mic identify someone?
Amcrest does not publish both a sensor resolution and a focal length for this product, and DORI distance cannot be derived without both. Rather than estimate one, this sheet leaves it out. If you have the manufacturer datasheet to hand, the DORI calculator on this site works the distance out from those two figures directly.
What is the infrared range of the Amcrest 5MP Turret PoE Camera, UltraHD Outdoor IP Camera with Mic?
Amcrest does not publish an infrared range for this product, so this site does not state one. An invented figure would be worse than no figure, because a reader would plan a camera position around it. Where a maker does publish a range, treat it as the distance its own lamp reaches in ideal conditions rather than the distance at which a face stays identifiable.
What specifications does Amcrest publish for this product?
Resolution: 5 MP. Everything in the table on this page is taken from the manufacturer listing rather than measured by us. Any row shown as not published is a figure this maker does not state, and this site will not fill that gap with an estimate.
Is the Amcrest 5MP Turret PoE Camera, UltraHD Outdoor IP Camera with Mic worth buying?
Five megapixels and a built in microphone, and that microphone is the reason to read the audio recording section on this site before switching it on. This site does not test products in person, so that assessment comes from the published specifications, the applicable standards and verified owner reports rather than from hands-on trials we did not run. Prices change often, so check the current listing before deciding.

Work out whether it fits
Specifications are published figures, not measurements we took. This site does not test products in person. Where a maker does not publish a figure, such as a true infrared range or a low light rating, this page says it is not published rather than estimating one, because a reader planning a camera position around an invented number is the worst outcome this site could produce.
