Have the same camera. It's pointed to the street, not up towards your window

Also it's wide angle and low quality. We used one as a baby monitor. They're not going to make very satisfying porn of OP with that camera

u/cannavacciuolo420 6h ago

yup, not to mention how horrible the dynamic range is. I have one for when i am on vacation, and if there's something shiny that reflects light it's impossible to properly see the rest of the frame.

Big market for “amateur” right now

You obviously never searched for porn in the 90s/early 2000s.

What camera is it? It looks like my reolink e1 pro, but the base is different, but if it's just a different base that's a 4k camera.... And very high quality

I own 4 of those, so I could bet it's a TP-Link TAPO C200.

Could be any camera so many look exactly the same but best bet is Xiaomi mi 360. Cheap popular and its at the top of an amazon search for home cameras.

In OPs video it’s also pointed at the street.

u/cannavacciuolo420 6h ago

yeah that's what i meant, didn't write it properly. It's evident that the camera is pointed at the street

u/Similar_Pie_4946 6h ago

I was just thinking looks like a multi apartment building, OP has serious main character syndrome if they believe the camera is pointing at their apartment

u/King_Chochacho 5h ago

Even if it were pointed up, it looks like OP is in an apartment building. At that distance it would be picking up a dozen windows.

Am I blind? The zooming in shows its clearly pointing up at OP window not down at the street.

u/SpiritualMongoose751 3h ago

I mean, it really doesn't look like it's pointed up towards OP so... probably...

Even if you've never owned a motion tracking cam, notice how the lens is on the lower 50% of that sphere; that means it's pointed below horizontal and OP is clearly on a higher floor.

I know cameras, I work in video haha but I’m telling you the lens seems pretty much aimed at OP to me (hence my comment and me wondering if I’m blind giving the general consensus)

u/deltajulietbravo 6h ago

Clearly. He's videoing down on the camera. And the camera lens is facing down from there.

u/SweetPinss 2h ago

And it can never be pointed up?

u/AlphonseLoeher 6h ago

That's still weird. Why would you need a camera in an apartment like that? OP should still laser it.

u/cannavacciuolo420 5h ago

Checking your car on the street is an option

u/AUDI0- 6h ago

Or just dont have main character syndrom, not every camera pointed in your general direction means its YOU theyre recording :)

u/AlphonseLoeher 5h ago

We don't need more surveillance. We already have flock cameras popping up everywhere. These home cameras all use cloud storage so the company that runs that software can access the videos they take.

u/EverythingSucksYo 1h ago

Ok but did you stop to think that maybe OP thinks everything is about them?
