    • Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)

Q: Can this camera work as a stand-alone?

A: Hello, This camera can only work with the LW2730 series monitors, and does not work as a standalone camera. Best Buy is carrying another model, the LNC226X which is outdoor rated, and is an IP camera which communicates on WiFi to your existing router, and can be viewed directly on iOS and Android devices with an app. Thanks, Lorex

Q: Waterproofing the Camera

A: Hi Isabel, We do not sell any specific housings for this model or any other cameras that can be paired to the monitor. Some customers have built custom enclosures by cutting down larger plastic soda bottles or other larger plastic bottles or pails, from modified wooden bird houses (test your reception through any thicker surface at the install location before permanently mounting the camera), and from other materials they have found in home improvement stores. We would not recommend a metal enclosure, as it would block reception. Also, any housing you put the camera into can greatly reduce or block the effectiveness of the 2-way audio if it blocks the speaker and mic on the camera. If you plan to mount the camera on a tree, the camera does require constant power so a long extension cord would also likely be needed. Thanks, Lorex

Q: LW2731AC1 series camera - does it include the wireless receiver?

A: Hello, This is an accessory camera to go with models LW2750 and LW2960 series. It is not a standalone camera and does not come with a receiver, and cannot work with a DVR unit. Thanks, Lorex

Q: Is it compatible with smart phones?

A: Hello, The SD+ systems use Skype for remote access. If there is an official Skype app for your smartphone platform (iOS and Android both have one), you can connect to your system remotely in the same way you would connect from a remote computer. In order to use Skype on your smartphone to connect to the system, you must perform the full setup for connecting to your camera from a remote computer on pg. 38 of the manual (available for download here: http://www.lorextechnology.com/Home-security-cameras-and-Wireless-home-camera-systems/Home-video-surveillance-system-monitor/prod340001.p#downloadsTab).
