    Camera lights don’t dim. Makes the camera very noticeable. Which might be the point I guess, you’d rather have a bad person bail out than rob you, but that still seems very counter-intuitive.

    Overall, camera seemed to function great but the main reason for purchase was to have 2-way audio. That function only works if you subscribe to the system, it is not free. I then returned it.

    This camera had a great picture, but the video and audio were not consistent live feed. Cut in and out, hard to follow.

    I am having a great deal of problems keeping my home camera online but I bought the same one for my church and it works fine. This lets me know that everything is going to work as soon as I get use to the camera. Thanks.

    Dont get suckered into buying a baby monitor because its shaped like and owl or because it has a cute baby on the box. Save yourself half the money and a get this better product. Just my opinion.

    The motion sensor is really good. It picks up movement before it sppears on the camera. The day and nightine view of the camera are very clear and good. Very good camera for the price.
