Thanks for your feedback! You can also ask your internet provider to enable dual-band Wi-Fi to create a 2.4GHz band for the camera.

This is a very useful dual camera. Lorex provides high quality solid devices that always work correctly and intuitively., I have other Lorex cameras as well, but this little guy is different. This camera has a lower camera and an upper camera that can pan and tilt via a mechanical movement.
I already had the Lorex app installed. I opened the app and plugged the camera in, then pointed my cell phone at the QR code on the camera. The camera was instantly recognized and the app led me through the complete install. You will only see 2.4 GHz networks to connect to. Once connected and you name the upper and lower cameras (and also give the device a name), you will be all set up in just a few minutes. This camera comes with the USB connector cable and the 120 volt adapter plug. It also includes screws and anchors if you want to attach the camera to a wall. However, I preferred to just sit the camera on a shelf since the camera has a flat bottom and this install gives you some portability if needed.
The camera alerted me that a firmware update was available. The firmware update downloaded in a few minutes and installed perfectly. Many times, firmware updates for cameras, key entry locks and other small appliances will require several attempts to complete successfully. Lorex updates are solid and complete without any hiccups. I give the engineers at Lorex a tip of the cap for putting together great hardware and software.
The displays on my phone of the camera videos are crystal clear. You can zoom and pan with your fingers on the cell phone screen. The upper camera can pan and tilt via a ‘joystick’ on the cell phone screen that works smoothly. You can use a view where one camera’s display is a small thumbnail inside the other camera’s display and switch them; or you can elect to see both cameras separately on your cell phone, which I prefer. The many features include auto-tracking, cloud storage (optional), a microphone with a call button to talk and speak, night view, 360-degree view, local storage via a micro SD card (that is included) and more. The camera also sends an alert if it recognizes a person/pet in the view – nice.
My house is one story about 60 feet long and 30 feet wide. I had the camera at one diagonal and stood with my phone at the other diagonal and could operate the pan/tilt feature as well as see the videos very clearly – great. In fact I could view and operate the dual cameras from my backyard, so the WiFi connectivity of the camera is super.
I am enjoying this device with the dual camera design. It is fun and helpful to keep track of pets or just keep an eye on your computer room for example. I would highly recommend this innovative, very functional and well-designed little wonder.

A Lot Of Features And High Quality 2K Video

Lorex has a new pan-tilt dual lens security camera. It's case is made of plastic but is reasonably strong. The pan-tilt camera is capable of cover areas well. There is also a fixed camera. It is within the bottom half of the case. They are 2K capable and very sharp. The cameras are HDR capable as well. Lorex has an app for configuring the cameras. The app is easy to navigate and makes available options that you would expect for a security camera.
App
The app is simple to navigate. You can use it set notifications, motion/sound detection, camera settings, light settings, update firmware, view recordings, download recordings, take still photos, set motion zones, etc. I like the app. If found it to have a good layout and it makes accessing recordings and live feeds simple.
Camera
Both cameras produce a high quality 2K HDR image. You can change this to HD and turn off HDR in the app. The pan-tilt camera can move based on motion detection and, within the app, can be moved manually using a virtual joystick. It can also detect sound, pets, and people. I found that it does move to cover movement, but there are times when it moves toward motion, but seems to have a problem keeping the subject in motion in center of the image. It does keep the moving subject in view. Sometimes when it moves to a moving subject, it will make some adjustments even when the subject isn't moving in the frame. This can be addressed by a firmware update, so isn't a big deal to me especially that the subject does stay in frame. The motors of the pan-tilt camera make a sound. This is a problem since I wouldn't want some intruder to notice where the camera is located. I can hear the motors from up to about 20 feet away. If this was being used to just monitor a room such as monitoring for a pet, then it wouldn't matter, but as I intend this to be a security camera that would record someone who would break into my home, the motor noise presents a problem. Any intruder would be able to hear the motors and see where the camera is. This isn't something that can be fixed by a firmware update.
Final Thoughts
The camera looks good. The quality of the 2K video is good. The app is nicely developed and the features are really good. I would like to see Lorex address the motor noise issue in the next version of this. It is well made and the dual cameras were a good choice by Lorex. If you are looking for a good security or monitoring camera and the motor noise wouldn't be an issue for your use, then consider the Lorex 2K Dual Lens indoor pan-tilt camera as a possible option.

Two types of cameras in one

This Lorex Dual Lens Indoor Pan/Tilt and Fixed Camera is unique because it offers two cameras, one fixed and the other Pan/Tilt. It is fully configurable using the Lorex software that you download to your cell phone. The software takes you through the process of connecting your camera to your home Wi-Fi network. Once connected you can then work with the camera via your cell phone or if you have Alexa you can enable it with the Lorex Home Skill which allows you to control your camera via Alexa. The camera comes with a preinstalled 32 GB SD card which stores the videos captured. There is an option to add cloud storage for a fee. The software allows you to do all sorts of configurations for motion detection, sound detection, etc. The camera also has a call button on it. I suspect the user scenario of the call button is if you are monitoring a person who might need to contact you. You have the option to use one or both cameras depending on your surveillance needs. I put the camera on our piano which is along the wall so that I could see the entire room with the fixed camera. The pan and tilt camera has motion detection so if someone came up to and played the piano the camera would tilt down and show the person playing the piano. The camera comes with a mount so that the camera could be mounted to a ceiling. I have found that the camera is very capable of supporting a wide range of surveillance scenarios.

Nice Indoor Pan-Tilt Security Camera

The Lorex - 2K Dual Lens Indoor Pan-Tilt Wi-Fi Security Camera provides great options for security and recording in your home. I primarily set this up to keep an eye on my pets, but it will also give me the ability to see if anything else is going on in my home. After setting this up and using it, following are my observations:
- Inside the box was the camera, a USB power cable and power adaptor, a 32 GB MicroSD card, a quick start guide, and a mounting bracket, anchors and screws. The camera can be set on a shelf or flat surface, or mounted on a wall using the included hardware.
- The camera was easy to set up. Just download the Lorex App, scan the QR code on the bottom of the device to connect the device to your App and the App will guide you through set up and allow you to explore settings to customize for your use.
- This Lorex camera has dual lenses, with 2K resolution. This allows you to have a fixed lower camera pointed on your room, and an upper camera that pans and tilts to provide a 360 degree view. The upper camera allows you to set it up to detect, track and follow people and/or pets moving in view of the lens, or just manually move that camera around while in live view, while still having the lower camera fixed on your room. This is a nice feature and allows you to see more than one area in your room or home at a time.
- You can also digitally zoom the camera in and out. The camera also has infrared night vision. The picture and video quality is great on this camera.
- This camera comes with a MicroSD storage card to store videos locally, or you can also subscribe to a Lorex Cloud Storage Plan. I love the fact it has a local storage option. It's nice to be able to see videos of what my pets have been up to during the day, or any other motion events that trigger the camera. I don't need to save these videos for a long time, so the local storage card option works great for me. Local storage is also a good option for security and privacy.
- There is a privacy mode that moves the camera and stops recording.
- The camera has a light ring around the bottom that you can set with different colors and use it for a night light, or just have it set to light up when movement or noise is detected.
- The camera has a two way talk feature so you can hear what is going on in the room and also talk through the speaker. You can use it to talk to pets or anyone in the room. It also has a call button on the camera, so a child or other person can push that button to communicate to you.
- You can share the camera so multiple people in the household can view it via the App.
This is a great indoor security camera! Works very well for monitoring pets or kids or any other activities in your home. The local storage option, 360 degree view, and auto tracking of people and/or pets are some of my favorite features. I'd highly recommend this security camera!

Great qualiy security system

This smart security camera is well in a nutshell awsome. In the past i got a camera for my back yard a different brand that had some of the same options, onboard storage or cloud storage and when i had seen this in the description i was a little leary about getting it. I say that because with the other brand i set it up and it was recording sending me notifications like this one does. But one day i stopped getting the notifications and could not figure out why at first. Well come to find out when you set up the other brand you only get a 30 day trial and after that 30 days you had to pay to use the system at all. Now the Lorex system is not that way. This has two opetions. It comes with a memory card already installed in the camera and it records to the memory card, FREE of charge and to what is see no 30 days and cuts off unless you pay. You do have a choise to go to the website and you can pay a $ 3 monthly charge to save your recordings to there website if you so please. So far this system is a win win in my book.
So out of the box it was super easy to set up. You scan the qr code on the bottom of the unit and it takes you to a downlaod page so for apple the app store. It walk you through the setup and making an account, very easy. Once done there it will show you what to click and how to work the camera. It does ask you a few questions like were are you setting it up at IE livingroom kitchen and so on. Are you mounting it on the ceiling and its basicly for camera oreintation. You can go into the settings and turn on motion and sound detection. So i have 2 cats and 2 dogs so i can set how high the camera will detect before it starts recording or sound you can set the decible to how loud the sound has to be before it starts recording. The stock settings for the quality of the video is set at standard but you can take it up to 2K but i would think that will chew up your hard drive space pretty quick, so i set mine to 720p and that seemed to be pretty good. So far im very happy with the quality of the recordings and just the overall quality of the system itself. Ease of setup and no hidden gotcha charges are 2 things in my book that make or break a quality experience and this checks both boxes among all the other bells and whistles this camera has its an easy yes you should buy recomendation.
