Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

These cameras have 2nd-to-none daytime video performance and very good nighttime performance. The ir is good enough not to wash out people close by, and there's dynamic range compression so backlit people's faces are not just blank shadows. The image ...  Read More

Design and functionality of these cameras are unbeatable. They dominate the intersection between price and functionality. Interface is surprisingly robust and non-activex dependent!

The included web interface is easy to navigate and full of features. The supplied software is basic, but worked without too much fussing. It runs well off the ip cam $4 app found at the iphone app store.

Night mode works great but is a little sensitive to subtle light changes which sets off the motion detection. Works well with blue iris and has been very stable. The motion detection is quite good.

No more grainy, low-def images after replacing the old analog security cameras. Image is crisp and clear. Excellent crisp video.



Cons

The video is foggy and blurred. You have to disconnect power and reset camera for it to start working. Your browser needs a driver to view the current scene.

    The camera has a nice high quality picture and can be viewed with an app on your iphone or in internet explorer with the aid of a free plugin


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    For the picture part it has worked flawlessly now for about a month


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Lots of adjustments for picture and you can also set up alerts but the motion detection stopped working almost immediately after first use

    Could possibly be irritating too if you get too many alerts but it does have adjustments for sensitivity and fields for detecting the motion in a custom area


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Camera has been operational in all weather conditions for 30 consecutive days
