If you are looking for an inexpensive one that allows you to remotely pan and tilt it, then the sibling to the above fixed position camera is (indoor model):

Or the outdoor version (even though it's WiFi, you still have to run a power cord to it, just like the above two cameras - it is not battery powered):

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08LHG2W7Y

The clarity of the video for the camera I bought is good. The default is 1920x1080, but you can change that in the settings to 2304x1296. Colors seem a little washed out, BUT I have the camera sitting on a window sill looking at the outside through a dirty glass window, and into the sun. Those are not ideal conditions for showing off video quality! I have not tried the sound - speaker and mic - because I don't need that functionality. Nor have I tried the infrared LED for nighttime illumination - another functionality I do not need. Nor the microSD card (you have to buy that separately) - I don't need that functionality either. Nor the motion detecting and alerting - you guessed it, more functionality that I don't need.

So I am ONLY commenting on the clarity of the video, which as I said, is good. This is a fixed focus camera. You can zoom the image, but it's a digital zoom only, not optical, so when you zoom in the clarity goes down - just like when you zoom an image on your computer to more magnification than 1:1.
