Great picture and IR night vision

I have bought 13 of these now, I believe, between the 2 versions: Black with zoom and Black without zoom. Although I gave them 5 stars, I would have really loved to have a 4.5 star option. Here's the good and the bad. The picture is great! The setup is simple. They work great with Linux Motion and with iSpy and with VLC, so they do everything I need. Where I found issues is in the "Waterproof". I put some of these outdoor, and after a couple of colder days in rain, I've now had 4 of them get full of condensation on the inside of the lens area. So calling them "waterproof" is really not fair. They absolutely can't handle a direct hose of water, and if they are exposed to rain or even high humidity, you'll be likely to have fogging. BUT, I was able to fix that. What I did was: First, order a 50 pack or so of the 2 to 5oz silica gel packs. Then, disassemble the camera. Pull off the top white plastic..it is easy to pop out but best is to slide it rearward. Then loosen the 2 screws on the back of the camera that allow it to rotate. Once they're loose enough, the mount comes off the camera, giving you access to the nut that the CAT5 cable passes through. Use some clear silicone and seal around that nut seam, and the cable to the nut. Then, Pull off the shield on the front of the camera, and then remove the 4 screws that hold the front on. The camera comes right out. If your'e real careful you can remove the attached wires but it isn't 100% necessary. Remove the rubber gasket between the sections. Fill the groove with clear silicone, and then insert the gasket again. Then put more clear silicone over it. Pack the camera body with 5 or 6 silica gel packs for the future. Then re-install the face on the camera body. After its installed, seal up the lens area. The camera lens is NOT the outer glass. That's a glass or polycarbonate ring around the IR LEDs and a plastic bushing and then another piece of glass in the center of that. I didn't want any vapor in there, so I smeared clear silicone around the outer edge of the big glass, around the outer edge of the inner lens bushing, and the inner edge of that bushing. Then, used a paper towel to wipe away the excess so that just a tiny bit was left in those seams. With that, the cameras have now been sealed up and I have never had any moisture in any of them after sealing. The other bad thing may be quality control. Most likely I got customer returns for a couple of cameras. All functioned, but, I found inconsistency in the cameras I bought. One camera had yellow/white RCA jacks while some of the others only had the red. So one clearly was a little different. THen on the non-zoom cams, internally the various boards are connected by 4 towers of standoffs. On some of my cams, only 2 of the holes actually had these standoffs in them. So somewhere, someone got cheap and decided to cut the parts count. It's not critical, but clearly not built as well as the completely built ones I got. Then on one camera that had 4 standoffs, 3 of them had the screws and washers floating around in the body. So someone had disassembled it and not tightened them again. Easy to fix, but, all of this just goes to show that you can't necessarily trust these cheap chinese products to deliver on quality. In the end though the cameras work well, so I'm still happy. I also blocked with my firewall, any access to the internet by these cameras. In todays day and age, you don't want these cameras sitting on your home network unless you know what they are doing...they could easily be hijacked and used for nefarious purposes. When I connected to one on a different network, I monitored the firewall and saw it instantly try to get to 5 or more outside IPs. That's fine, if it's required, but again, best to not trust it. Just allow it to your Surveillance box. I'm very happy with how they worked out. Would have preferred 100% quality, but got 90%, and that's good enough for me. The picture quality is excellent, they work with POE switches well, and they run great.

Good camera, good price

I purchased this camera, even though it only had 1 review, which I normally don't do. This is my 2nd experience with a JideTech camera, the 1st was good, so when this outdoor POE camera showed up I wanted to give it a try. The price is right. The camera's body is solid and it's molded with just 2-pieces to ensure a good weatherproof seal. The camera was very easy to connect to my POE switch and configure using the included software. I tested the picture indoor and outdoor. It provided a sharp picture with vivid colors. The camera comes packaged with basic mounting hardware and a cover that protects the Ethernet connection from weather. If you're looking for a simple camera to monitor whether someone is in your driveway or at your front door, I would recommend this one especially for the price.

Quality ratio! Top camera

At first I was attracted by the price of this camera, the price is very cheap, and the appearance is delicate. Specifications and performance can also meet my requirements, so I bought one to try. And Note it!!!!! This camera do not equipped with a separate power supply and POE power supply. I have a POE injector, so install is very easy and i install it in my warehouse. At the beginning, I thought the camera could only use IE, which is very bad. Then i ask the seller, they told me i can also use the chrome browser, but need to install the IE TAB. However, i do it, i really do not like to use the IE. After adjust the camera ip, i can view it on my PC also on my iphone. The camera left me with the deepest impression is the complete 1080p image quality which is very clear, also the night vision. 20m is enough for me. Also support the detect motion and the FTP and SMTP, provide support for IGMP, DDNS, P2P applications and ONVIF. And you can set specific parameters of the camera, such as exposure, saturation and backlight compensation, scene mode, etc. This is what i need. Purchase this camera at this price, which is excellent value for money.

Great Camera!

This camera is a fantastic addition to my home security system! Here are the pros and cons: Cons: It is large and bulky, came with a veryyyyyy short Ethernet cable most other cameras come with at least 100 feet. The papers that came with the camera are a bit off. Pros: Amazing resolution and great quality build. Has great field of view and awesome night vision! Easily connected to my NVR system. All in all I highly recommend this camera for home security. Will definitely buy more if I need them!!! I will add pictures of the camera itself when I have my phone but here is a picture from my pc I took from the camera point of view.

Best Amazon Seller so far

I have a camera system that's run by Blueiris. It has 12 cameras already and this camera is by far the best looking and Performing camera of the Dozen I already owned. The seller was super easy to talk to when I asked about firmware and wend above and beyond offering help I didn't even need. I could tell they know their products and networks very well. Awesome experience They include a piece of software called IP wizard and is very helpful. You should start there when setting it up. Tells you everything you need to know and lets you change anything if you need to.

Arrived Assembled Incorrectly-Feature Rich-Manuals are Terrible

See UPDATE at end. This camera has a great picture and I was able to hook it up to my network very quickly. So, from the time I plugged it in until I saw a picture was about 10 minutes. There are a lot of settings, so you can customize a lot of video options. I turned motion sensing on, but it didn't trigger recording, so I haven't figured that out. See note below on manual. Sadly, the web interface only works on IE-a dead browser. I bought this as a test, since I need several cameras, and the price-point was good, and reviews were overall good. Some bad news, the camera was assembled 90 degrees off-axis. So, if you look at the picture, you will see the picture is not quite what you'd expect. I have contacted the manufacturer to see if it is something I can fix, or if I need to return to Amazon. Likely that latter... Also, the security on this camera needs to be set correctly as out-of-the box there is none. Port 80 by default... Not good. The manual is a joke. It is a bunch of screen shots-duh!! How about explaining what each of the options actually does. I tried to download the mobile app, and my phone's Spidy senses went through the roof! When you try to download the app, another app tries to take over and tell you you can download apps faster... I did not download the mobile app. I'm getting another system for recording, etc., and it won't have all the scary stuff anything made in this product's country of origin has. This camera is not for the novice. So, beware... If I get my issue resolved in a timely manner, I will likely raise the rating, but time will tell... UPDATE: Received a replacement camera from Amazon in two days, and it works! I also received a response from the seller, and they were very concerned and offered me a SD card for my troubles. So, overall, I am happy.

A Professional Security Camera at a Consumer Price

If you've read my other reviews, you'll know I like details, so I'll try to give you a lot of useful information, here. I'm a professional installer of security cameras and recorders. My specialty is giving my customers high quality equipment at a good "value". There are a lot of choices out there and this camera is one you should consider. To be honest, I purchased this camera, even though I didn't need it for a current job. I've had some good previous experiences with JideTech, so when my search showed this outdoor POE camera with an advertised 65-foot (20-meter) IR Distance, I wanted to give it a try. For this price, my expectations were low. The camera arrived much sooner than I had expected (Prime told me to expect it in 4-5 days... it arrived in 2). The first thing you'll notice is the quality of the camera's case/body. It's solid and it's molded with just 2-pieces to ensure a good, weatherproof seal. And, I know this won't matter to most installers, but the body is tapered, so that is looks modern and attractive. My first action was to connect the camera to a POE switch on my network. For me, POE is critical for outdoor camera installations, so I had to be sure it work without any issues. It was quick and easy and worked perfectly. The label, on the camera, showed an IP Address, so I connected to it, with Internet Explorer, using that IP Address. Small problem: My new BitDefender AntiVirus program interfered with the installation of the ActiveX Control. Once I realized what was happening, I added the exception to BitDefender and it was "smooth sailing," after that. The interface was very complete and modern. There were some features that I wasn't expecting like "back-light" control and adjustable WDR Control. Very cool. I tested the picture for indoor and outdoor use. I had to know whether the 36 pieces IR really gave a 65-foot range. The first thing I noticed was that the Sony CCD Sensor provided a sharp picture with very vivid colors. It's a 3.6mm lens so don't expect close-ups. It's a wide-angle, fixed-focus picture. I'd use this camera to cover an area, like a small parking lot, where I'm monitoring general activity and movement. If you need a license plate number, this isn't your camera. If you need a sharp picture of an wider area. You'll be very pleased. I've attached some pictures to help your evaluation. In the first, indoor picture, the bookcase is ~ 13' from the camera. I highlighted the outdoor picture to help you see the excellent IR image. The tree in the center is ~40 feet from the camera. Most amazing is that the garage, across the street, is almost 100' away... and the picket fence shown is more than twice the rated 65' distance. VERY impressive. The camera comes packaged with basic mounting hardware and a cover that protects the Ethernet connection from weather. Admittedly, I usually use waterproof PVC boxes for my installations. The look great and really protect all of the cables. A short Ethernet cable is also included. Because nothing's perfect, here are a couple of things you'd want to be aware of. The included instructions might be confusing to less experienced installers. They refer to the "included power supply". Because this is a POE camera, the Power Supply is not included (you can use a standard 12v 1a adapter). Most professional installers will use a POE switch or a POE converter, but you could plug the AC Adapter right into the connector on the camera. Also, the instructions direct you to download (or install from the included CD) their "search tool" to connect to the camera. However, that isn't necessary, because the initial IP Address is shown on the camera's label. The P2P function is very good and easy to setup. However, if you want to record images, you'll probably use an NVR. I didn't see where you could add a memory card to the camera. It's "possible" that it's available, but you'd have to dismantle the camera to find it... I'd never do that with an IP66 sealed camera. I'd be afraid that when the camera was re-assembled that the weatherproof seal could be damaged. Overall, you should give this camera some consideration, if you need to cover a wider area and if you're looking for excellent IR distance and coverage. For this price, it really does offer an excellent value. Hope this helps.

Spy on the block

This is a preliminary review will update as I use it more. I found this security camera to be easy to install and use. The hardware is robust as it has a metal shell and a well-insulated cable. The cable measures about 16" from camera mount to the tip, be aware that you will have to make any cable you attach to it will be water resistant if you plan on running it outside (not through a wall). The software was a major pain in the a**. The enclosed CD would not load and I could not copy the files off and install from the hard drive. While trying to copying, the CD it would just freeze at 85% never finishing the copying. The file from the website is zipped as a .rar file. I ended up using an online converter and converted it to a .zip file and was able to install it. Not a major deal breaker but unnecessary work. Daytime: The video quality is excellent, experience no lag in what I saw in real life vs what the camera showed me. Nighttime: The camera will show you black and white but everything is very clear, from my angle no I can't see a license plate but I can make out a face with clarity. Overall, I really like this camera and may even purchase more once the house is finished being worked on. Again I will be adding more pictures/video once I've used it for a while and run it through its paces completely.
