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.

My Reolink cameras are firewalled from communicating with the internet, so I can confirm that they function fine without cloud access.
