Myfox Security Camera

As obvious as the camera from France, no other protects the privacy: On the touch screen in the app Myfox Security closes a motorized aperture in front of the lens. Guests do not need to be afraid that their visit to video is being held, and private moments remain private.

The eye protection is also available with a free cloud account. In the free version, however, the app shows only live images and warns by message when the camera detects a movement. Only a paid subscription activates the recording function and the so-called Timeline, with which can be rummaged on the screen in the recorded clips. 24 hours of recording back-up costs nearly five euros a month, the 7-day archive hits ten euros. Myfox is at the top of the price scale in this test.


Conclusion


The picture quality offers little reason to criticize. The Myfox provides natural and balanced recordings apart from light compression artifacts. In zoom mode, it even overruns all others in the test. Although its maximum magnification is moderate (4 times), but the digital zoom can really be used. A function called Magic Zoom smoothes edges and improves the contrast, making the images clearer and sharper than physics actually allows.


Another special feature is the integrated buffer battery. With it, the Myfox Security Camera can bridge short-term power failures. In the test, the battery lasted more than an hour. During this time, there is no video upload to the cloud (as well as without electricity and Internet?), But the camera continues to detect movements and record videos to an integrated memory. When the power supply returns, it automatically uploads its recordings to the online archive.


The camera is quickly installed and easy to use due to its limited setting possibilities. The sound transmission satisfies simple requirements, the picture quality is on a good level - even in the zoom range. She plays all her abilities in the team with a Myfox alarm system.
