The video extension cable is garbage and totally unsheilded, I was actually picking up radio stations using the cable that came with the camera, not to mention the horrible picture.If you do purchase this camera, be sure to buy or make up your own video cable. Purchased three of these cameras from Amazon for indoor use. Camera quality is quite dissapointing.
Range of IR is greater and MUCH less granulated, resolution in daytime is fantastic, and one unit in the corner of a square room or backyard can cover nearly everything. Picture quality, construction quality, Night Vision, and Field of Vision are all a letdown and I returned it right away. (I suppose I should give credit that it also includes audio, but given that this is advertised as an "indoor camera" one would wish for a much wider field of vision). This product may be adequate for some applications, just be aware that it is very low-end. For the price, I suppose this is still a good "deal", but if you want an excellent quality Dome Camera with decent Night Vision, superb build quality, and a wide angle view look at the unit labeled "vandal proof dome camera", also from Amazon. It is more expensive, but has a VERY hefty and sturdy feel to it.
In high noon screen is white out of the shade. I hooked it up under my open garage on the side top wall and works flawlessly. My garage is 2 cars wide and I can see in the shade very clearly about 35 feet but when it hits out of the shade the screen gets whiter and whiter. This a great camra if your on a budget hooked it up in 30 mins. I WILL BUY MORE IN THE FUTURE. the only thing is in order to see from afar you can't mount it on the ceiling. I can see 15 feet at night with about 5 feet of shadow images. If you mount it on the ceiling the object or scene your watching has to be at least 10 feet away.
Very good night vision for a short distance (about 20 feet). Shipped fast and the price was right. Nice small unit for the front door or driveway. Now I know who is at the front door and have the option to answer or NOT. If you live in an area that's freezing, snowy and very wet, you may want to notice it says "indoor camera". Hooked up easily. Started working as soon as I plugged it in.
