Great camera October 5, 2008 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
This camera works great. After reading other reviews, I bought one and now I am regretting not buying more. I bought it last week at $120, now it is over $150, what is up with that? I am going to buy 3 more, but I might wait to see if the price goes down a little. Great picture day and night, decent mount and decent construction. I would recommend this camera to my friends.

I have used this camera for about 2 weeks. It worked ok for about a week. I also purchased an expensive new TV monitor to use with this camera. The tv monitor shows big white / gray circles when I try to record on it at night. I am assuming the white / gray circles are the led lights on this camera lens. It made no difference in the picture quality even if I turned off the outside lights on my house!
The white circles block out a lot of what I am trying to record ... faces, vehicles, and neighborhood criminal activities.
It works ok for day time monitoring (only) but I would not recomend this camera for day or night recording. You CAN NOT identify faces, vehicles or anything else even if you are up close up to the camera!
I would send the camera back for a refund, but it has been painted white so it would blend in by the house and not be seen by people. I am VERY DISAPPOINTED in this camera! Don't waste your time or money buying this camera!
Many cameras tested August 28, 2008 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Ok heres the info that I was lookin for but had to find it the hard way. First off I was looking for a camera that had good range, clear picture and the ability to see clear at night. For the price this camera is well better than the others in the same range. In fact probably the all around best for the price. It offers a wider picture, A little bit more distance and a slightly clearer picture. But a fact you should know!!! I mounted this camera and with a day or so I caught my car getting robbed. The distance was about 30 to 40 feet and it was impossible to make out a face. The burglar stopped the car and the car was difficult to spot make model and accurate color but with some effort got it done. If your intention is to catch someone in the act and be able to prosecute them, upgrade to some better models. Spend the money. My things were still taken and all I can do now is watch it happen. Nothing else. I have tried all the cameras just about and all the different ranges. This is the best one but like I said before, you get what you pay for. Hope this helps.

The camera provides a good picture. Unfortunately, water damaged the adapter and the camera is now damaged :-(. However, while it was working, I was impressed. The night vision works well even in ZERO light. Great buy!!
Fantastic camera August 5, 2008 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have a First Alert security system. It's inexpensive but works great. The camera that came with it was OK but marginal. I researched many cameras and this one came with high praise. It deserves it. I could not have been happier. The only slight downside is that the IR lights can wash out the subject when they are about 15 feet or closer away. I covered the lights with a disc of smoke colored plastic. It helped a lot. I am thrilled with this camera..
