Same issue - the doorbell requires a base that none of the Q cameras have. At some point it may be possible for us to program Qs with the wireless cameras but right now it's not possible.

So it will not work with the base staion at all ....?

 

Or it just cannot trip the camera...which is really useless if it cannot

Not sure what you're asking but the doorbell requires a base and the Q can't interract with devices attached to a base. So, no, the doorbell can't trigger a camera. You're already getting a base with the doorbell so an add-on Pro camera would be the best solution.

apology for my confusion.....the doorbell does not come with a base station I already have the one that works with all cameras....so I cannot find anything that says like you pointed out that it comes with a base station.....where have you seen that it does?

My mistake - the doorbell indeed does not come with a base station since it's considered an option to an existing system. Thus, you'd need to buy a base station in addition to the doorbell.
