The TC34 uses a large f\/1.6 aperture lens combined with dual smart supplemental lights (white light and IR) to produce full-colour footage in low-light and dark conditions. The camera intelligently adjusts between colour and IR modes based on the ambient light level, so you get colour footage when it matters most.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need a subscription to use the TC34?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo — the TC34 works fully without any subscription. Insert a microSD card (up to 512 GB, sold separately) for local continuous or event-triggered recording at no ongoing cost. Tapo Care cloud storage is available as an optional paid subscription if you want off-site backup of your recordings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it need to be wired for power?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the TC34 is a wired outdoor camera powered by the included 12 V DC adaptor via a weatherproof cable. It connects to your home network via 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, so no Ethernet cable is needed for data. A nearby outdoor power point is required for installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The TC34 carries an IP67 weatherproof rating (fully protected against dust and heavy rain) and operates across a wide temperature range of -30 °C to 60 °C, making it well-suited to Australian climates from tropical Queensland to alpine regions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I view footage remotely on my phone?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
