Model: Tapo C120

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

Hey,

I'm curious if it is possible to change the plane of focus of the C120. I DON'T mean the Area which is monitored. In my case I would like to mount the camera in a BirdBox. So, the subjects will be much closer to the camera. Like 10-30cm.

Is it possible to turn the Lense or something like that?

Has anybody any succession?

Thanks and best Regards

Johannes

Hi,
For now, all Tapo cameras use digital zoom rather than optical zoom, which is also commonly used on security cameras. Changing the plane of focus is a form of optical zoom, which is not supported by the Tapo cameras.
Best Regards
