Any recommendations for good open protocol cameras? I heard about Reolink cameras, are they ok? I need them to be Ethernet and be able to stream with RTP/RTSP and expose some sort of API for control/monitoring. And not depend on cloud, if possible. Thanks.

Happy with my Reolink RLC-820A cameras. 4K, powered via PoE, and no dependency on cloud services.

I have mine configured in a Frigate docker container, recording to my NAS.
