| We bought 3 of these cameras and they all work great. The picture quality is terrific. The night vision is really good too. |

I am truly amazed on the quality of this camera. I mounted it about 7 feet high to be able to see down a narrow path about 85 foot long. It surprised me how sharp and clear the picture was even past 100 foot. Even at night I was able to see half way down the path with no problem!
If you need a good quality camera I would recommend this one. For the price you cannot go wrong! |

This camera has a very nice picture, only drawback is it has a small field of view.
I replaced a cheap plastic model that had a very wide field of my front porch. When I put this in the same location, it barely showed anything, so I had to move it 15 feet away to see the area I wanted.
However, that far away made identifying people difficult unless you knew them. Not sure if an ID could be made from a screen capture from that distance.
To get a good face shot, you'd have to mount it so low it could easily be stolen.
I bought 4 of these, one has a halo around the frame when the IR is on. Annoying but acceptable.
The IR works great, one on my driveway can see over 50 feet to my neighbors steps. The one in my backyard shows almost the entire 40 X 60 lot.
Not sure about the weatherability, it says it is NOT waterproof and not to mount it where it can get rained on. Finding a place out of direct rain may be hard and might not suit your apps.
All in all, this is a very good bargain...BUT,
If you need multiple cams, buy one to see if the view is what you want.

SVAT CCTV Security Camera With Night Vision
|
| Review Date: July 2, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Charlie Harper, |
| This camera was better than seller described it as far as night vision and distance camera can see. Night vision is crisp and clear up to 20 feet. During the day I am able to view more than a block away. Camera will not show true color if facing the sun, you will see different hues of pink. But facing away from the sun it's fine. I would have given it five stars if it were not for the fact that it says weatherproof, but then it states do not use in rain. My next SVAT camera this seller will be waterproof. For the price you can't beat this one, it gives a picture as good or better than a $100.00 camera I own. |
NON Standard Cable and Camera

| Review Date: August 21, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Douglas W Walhovd, |
| August 2010: I bought this camera as a replacement. After arriving I found that my Standard RCA/power CCTV cables would not work for this camera. This camera, and the cable that comes with it, have a S type 4 pin Din connector on the camera end. So beware, if buying as a replacement, or if you need to replace this camera in the future, the Cable that came with it will not work with a standard CCTV Camera. But because of the good picture quality, I decided to climb into the attic and ADD this non standard cable next to the existing RCA cable to the camera site. And for the price, it was not worth trying to find another with standard CCTV connectors. The 3 stars is not for the quality, but not for making it clear that it is a non-standard system, only one small picture of the cable barely shows the non-standard connector, and one small text indication of the non-standard connection at the end of the ad. All other pictures of the camera do not show the cord. |
