Works like a charm.
Video quality is great and controls are easy once you figure it out. Would like to have more in depth directions sent with system. Would still recommend to everyone.

Very Pleased
Picture Quality is great. Would have liked to have been told what was needed prior to purchasing it for the sound to record. Also, would be nice if Defender attached to my computer and backed up to the hard drive instead of a USB Stick. Just minor things that would make it even better.

    good first impression
    For the price, decent picture and after a couple of hours of adjusting the settings and connecting the app, things seem to be fine so far. Better image than my old 720p cameras from 2015 from Samsung, but only gave 4 starts because the old cameras had a metal base / metal pivot socket / metal adjusting ring, while these cameras are all plastic and quite lightweight by comparison, but that does not mean they will not last as long or stand up to inclement weather - here's hoping. . .

    The product.
    Camera system is a very good system. The only issue I personally have is the DVR fan is a little loud for me. My old system was in my living room so I did not want to move all the wires for my new Defender system. The app could be a little better. I have to open twice to get the cameras to refresh.

      Defenders 4K cameras System
      This system is very good. It has a very clear picture and a very wide view range. If you have a 4K television or monitor it will look great. But it will work with a regular basis monitor. I have had Defender systems for years. I have even installed them for some business. I highly recommend this company and their equipment.

      Great quality with easy to understand startup instruction guide. Everything was in the kit to get the system up and going. This system is self contained where the video data is stored safety on your local high capacity DVR with no monthly fees that never end. The system is highly customizable to fit your unique needs.

        Won’t buy another system.
        These cameras are wonderful. I like that each camera does not need its own power adapter. We can put 4 camera lines per power adapter. That’s something we had an issue with when it came to a different company. We ordered the 16-channel unit from Defender and it covers a 5000 square ft area easily. We love the quality of the images and how easy it is to use the system.

          Combining 1080 cameras into a 4K DVR
          Owning a 1080 - 8 camera system, I wanted to buy the 4K - 16 camera system, and reuse 8 of the 1080 cameras along with 8 - 4K cameras. The help desk was absolutely unable to figure out how to do that, so I drew up a schematic diagram for them to have their engineering section look at; which they eventually approved. BTW, it works very well. I used the 1080 power supplies with the built-in ferrite beads on the 1K cameras and the original cabling without ferrite beads for the 1K side.

          I have been installing and using my system for several weeks now. I do not hear so well, so I have been relying on Defender's support people for help. They are superb! I love the video quality and the robustness of the cameras and the DVR. Many thanks.

            3 Camera system
            Great system, very user friendly, and great cameras. The only regret I have is not getting the 4 cameras. Its way cheaper to get the bundle compared to buuing a 3 camera system and finding out you could use another one. Cameras are sold individually at a much higher price.

            A wow of a surprise
            We previously had security cameras but the manufacturer went out of business and no longer gave support for them. After researching several brands I decided to give Defender a try. Delivery was delayed several days but when they arrived I had them installed and was very pleased with the clarity of the picture making me feel i made the best choice!

            Hi Set up, thank you for taking the time to review your Defender 4K. I am sorry to see that you are not 100% satisfied with the system. All of our manuals, as well as helpful how-to videos, are found in our support section at www.defendercameras.com. While the 4K does not come equipped with audio, you can purchase a microphone with RCA connections from a third party. The microphone connects to the back of the DVR and is run to the area in which you want to hear sound. It is important to note that the DVR will not record audio but you will be able to hear the audio while in Live View on the monitor connected to the DVR. Please reach out to our team of experts through Live Chat at our website and we will be happy to assist further if needed, we are available Monday to Friday from 8 am to 4 pm EST.
