Great price for a security camera

This is a great camera for the price. My use case was a cloudless baby monitor with a pan and tilt servo to guide the camera. The wide angle made the servo pointless for a child's room, the picture quality is excellent - I stream 640 x 480 until I spot movement or sound, then bring it up. up to 1080p. Night light also works well for a small space, almost as well as the built-in camera spotlight (see screenshots in different lighting conditions). My main complaints: 1. The non-standard form…

Camera in hive

I use this camera in my hive to monitor bee activity day and night. It's perfect for that, except the focus distance isn't quite close for shots that close. However, it's still focused enough to see what's going on, and that's not what it was designed for anyway. One of the IR bulbs on the first one I received was broken, but the seller sent me a replacement camera. which works great! Excellent customer service!

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • No instructions

However, they still do their best to make me happy and since the camera works I'm updating my review. I will update it later. EDIT: The company was very concerned so I'll update my…

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • No auto mode

Great camera with night vision!

Module 1/2 worked during initialization. The camera seemed to work very well, but not in the infrared range. In the month I've had the infrared still didn't work despite the potentiometer adjustment. The camera has been throwing problems intermittently and now there is no signal at all. I have a second device for home and not for work and haven't had any issues with it. - Update (7/25/18) The manufacturer's customer support was great and offered lots of suggestions and troubleshooting tips to…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
