 Great Professional Camera for the Money |
| Review Date: September 27, 2007 |

I'm building a surveillance system. I coupled this with Avermedia's product card (NV7000), and it works wonderfully! The picture quality is awesome. It is a far outcry from the other cameras we have tried in that it is extremely better, and the others were in the same price range. The night vision is fine, but can use some boosting for more distance. But, you can get those IR boosters to do that. The picture quality is great in both color and the black and white. Also, no jumping of the images. I found the combination to be a wonderful alternative to higher end and higher costing systems available as kits.
On the other end of things, I found it a little longer setting up. It took me one day to get the system going. But, once it was setup, it is amazing. I believe it would couple well with any of the Avermedia cards to be honest. But, I cannot rate it with them since I've only tried it with the NV7000.
The 4mm lense is better than most cameras (which seem to range from 6mm to 12mm) for more area of coverage. But, I found wide angle lenses readily available for it on Amazon. |
It works and is inexpensive

Mine came with a 6mm lens - not the 4mm specified (and preferred). Luckily I purchased the wide angle lens which allows locating the camera in a corner.
Pros: Inexpensive, has top and bottom standard mounting (threaded). Clear picture. Infrared only active in DARK conditions.
Cons: Not the 4mm lens specified (I almost think I might have received a unit that was returned with a non-oem lens on it.) Infrared lights on front glow (red) visibly at all times - not super bright but definitely visible. Threading for lenses was rough. No way to deactivate infrared mode. |
Great Camera...Only if can get the drivers to work!

This camera "was" exceptional until it rendered me useless after Swann software support left me in the dust. The software is horrible. It looks and acts (usability-wise and just look & feel as well) as though it's from 1994 or something. It's just horrible. The worst is that there are no 64-bit drivers for this card for Vista or Windows 7 so you cannot even use it on a home PC running 64-bit windows. Most of the world has already started moving to 64-bit windows to take advantage of more RAM, etc.
Also, the cable that goes from my Swann C510R video camera that works with this card is starting to fall apart at both ends. Poor workmanship.
I would **not** recommend this product nor any products from Swann period. They do not care about software, drivers, etc. so that you can actually use their cameras on the latest 64-bit operating systems including Mac 64-bit. |
