good for certain aplications
By Chris Swiontek
the good: decent zoom {auto focus is hit or miss/but you can manually adjust it daytime view is very clean {sharp image/high rez/and fast framrate} GREAT mounting bracket {very solid and sturdy }the bad: LEAKS LIKE A SIV! {but can easily be fixed with a little silicon around the mounting bracket,and where the dome attaches to the bracket} NO INTERNAL HEATER! this ip camera WILL fog up at certain temperature changes! {but...if you seal it with silicon,its not too bad. NO GASKET BETWEEN THE DOME AND BRACKET! OR THE CLEAR CAMERA COVER AND BODY! {i made my own out of cork,but at this price ,it should have come with a gasket dammit!} WILL NOT work with other Foscam products ,UNLESS you are using BlueIris as your recording software{other foscam products WILL NOT recognize this product thru there firmware {or see them at all thru the Multi-view } This camera pulls 12volts and 2AMPS" of currant CONSTANTLY !!!!!!! {So P.O.E. is out of the question at more than 25feet {that means TP-link/Dlink/and even the "Foscam p.e.o. kits WILL NOT POWER THIS CAMERA AT MORE THAN 25 FEET!} you MUST RUN 110vlt to a 6x6x4 pvc box {to hold the power adapter and cables} beside this dome,just to install it and give it power and lan {cat5e} good cam,if your willing to put in the extra work and parts {still not too bad of deal}NO NIGHT VISION CAPABILITY ! will NOT work with ANY I.R. lights at all {the lense DOESNT SUPPORT IR NIGHT VISION}the "lux " of this camera is 3.7 {anything more than 0.8 -and you WONT see ANYTHING AT NIGHT} this is a DAYTIME camera ONLY!p.s. if youre NOT a Programer, or an I.T. guy Professionally {which i am actually} you Will Not get this camera to work on your i.p. camera system} I am the Owner and Founder of Swan Technology Corp., and it took me a bit of effort to get this to work on an existing I.P. system {but i did get it to work eventually}

Good all around Outdoor IP Cam
By ExITPro
I bought my camera directly from foscam.us, because apparently, that's the only way to get warranty service if you need it.I've spent many hours scouring the web, looking for a camera like this, only less expensive. Well, it appears that this camera is about as good as it gets for anything close to it's price. I've seen some people complain about it not having IR. It doesn't bother me in the least, since I'm pretty sure that IR LEDs mounted in there with the camera lens would tend to reflect on the inside of the dome, back to the camera.I installed it myself, a little over 2 weeks ago. I mounted it on a "ARM Electronics SDOCA Outside Corner Adapter for Speed Dome Camera". I ran 100 foot Cat6 cable to a PoE injector, and into a wireless "n" bridge. It runs flawlessly.This is kind of a side issue. But, I'll mention it here, just in case it can help somebody else. I ran into intermittent video problems, within a day of the install (which turned out to be NO fault of the camera). But, before I figured it out, it had me thinking I was going to have to send it back for repair. It turned out that (for whatever reason) I needed to clear my ARP tables. This is the table that equates IP addresses with MAC addresses. Routers, switches, Computers...etc maintain these tables for every device on a local area network. If something in a table gets out of whack, odd things can happen. So, I turned off everything on my local area network, then restarted everything (Router, then bridges, then switches, then computers). Problem solved, and video's been perfectly stable ever since.A tip: If you use Blue Iris Software with this camera, you'll need to delete the presets (1 - 10) in the Blue Iris configuration. and add presets: 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44. I don't understand why this is? Just do it. :)Bottom line: I really like this camera. It's very fast moving from one preset to another. It auto focuses quickly. It has rock solid performance, even in sub freezing weather. I'm about to order another one for the rear of my house.

By BLAKE
I labeled this as 'The Eye' on my network ;) We own a Company that sells Wrought Iron Parts, having a procedure which requires management to double check each delivery is quite demanding. Thanks to this neat camera & Blue Iris, I can zoom right up to even the smallest leaves to confirm it is what it is supposed to be, in regard to double checking quantity as well. Considering the competition I'd say that though not perfect it's currently the benchmark. Till I see something better in price range & functionality I'd give it and easy 5
