Reolink Elite Floodlight WiFi review: A dual-camera dazzler

PCWorld

Dual lenses give Reolink's latest floodlight camera an incredibly wide field of view, while its bright and capable floodlights ensure the scene is effectively lit. No matter how wide a viewing angle a given fixed-lens security camera might have, it will invariably suffer from this flaw: It won't be able to see everything in front of it. And while some cameras try to solve this problem by employing a fish-eye lens to widen that viewing angle, the resulting image usually suffers from a degree of barrel distortion. Reolink's Elite Floodlight WiFi mitigates that problem via a clever hack. It uses two camera lenses instead of just one to deliver a combined (and relatively distortion-free) 180-degree field of view.
