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.

Roelink (wired) as others have said, Amcrest is also good. Have a look at The Hook Up on YouTube for reviews. He does only comparative reviews and local control is one of his most important metric.
