I love these cameras!

Pros: Accurate, Easy To Set Up, Long Range,Sensitive

I love these cameras. They work great day and night, at long range. I wouldn't recommend them for short range, or where you need a wide-angel view of things... they are perfect at about 60' and 100' (as I have them in their current configuration). I did replace one of these with a Varifocal dome camera with a wider viewing angle. However, these are still my most viewed cameras.

Great camera

The view is excellent. It has an extremely long range both night and day. No need for lights with this camera for night vision. Highly recommend this product.

Impressive clarity 

Very clear visual. Daytime is the best with the view in color, but night is also very clear and the view is black and white. A great buy, now I want to change all my cameras to this model

What a view!

Crystal clear vision. Field of view is a little narrow, but I should have read that spec first.

surprised 

I'm shocked at the quality considering I was told not to buy the "big box store" brand of surveillance cameras. This was once a $200 camera so I figure I'd give it a try. Plus it already comes with 60ft of cord. 

Picture: This camera has a very nice picture during the day but the highlight for me and why I bought it was for at night where I can clearly see everything. My target area is pitched black and you can barely see your feet underneath you, but with this camera I can see everything down to the termite bait stations in ground. And to think that I was going to put up a motion spotlight to "help aid" the camera see better at night. pfft 

View: This is the part where you must know what you want in a surveillance camera. For me this Lorex model is set up to get close up body shots of my monitoring area, while a separate wide angle camera records the wider aerial shot of the area. This camera has a 1/4 chip with a fixed 8mm lens so the shot will be somewhat tight depending on what you wish to monitor. Within my target viewing area I can clearly see a person's face, clothes, etc. With this camera you can reasonably monitor an area 15ft +/- wide while the length of the shot depends on how you angle the camera. I was able to see over 100 feet down the strip while fooling around. I personally think this would also make a good camera for a long narrow alley or side parking lot. It is possible to view a larger area with this camera, however you'd need to mount it pretty high and far away(at least 75ft away) from the area you want to monitor which would then eliminate it as a zoomed shot surveillance camera. However, If at the end of the day what you really need is a wide shot then this is not the camera for that job. Wide angle camera lens will probably be 4mm or less with a lot of people using 3.6mm cameras for wider shots. 



Durability: Time will tell 

Price: Look around as this camera can be had locally for $100 after rebates.

Great value

So far very happy with the product. Haven't put it in the final location yet because of the weather. I like the wide angle it covers a lot of ground.

High Res Long Range Color Day/Night Camera

The first two days the camera was plugged in, I did not receive a picture. (Video Loss) At night I noticed the infareds were lit, still no picture. On the third day, we had a very warm day. When I got home that evening, I checked the video, we have a picture. What happened, I'll never know. At night the infrared produce a not so clear picture unless I shrink the picture to a very small square. I wouldn't buy another one of this type. All other Lorex Cameras I have are great.

Not Bad But Not Great

Plug and Play installation. Attached BNC connector makes for difficult install as you have to drill a hole the size of the connector to pass through anything. Quality is marginal won't be able to read licence plates or get a good facial recognition but it does provide a nice pic for viewing and motion activation day or night.

I believed that they would be better

I researched these and other cameras on the Lorex site and purchased (4). I am not pleased with the overall picture quality in day or night modes. Very fuzzy and blurry and not of a quality that would be very beneficial in an investigation. I had hoped that buying one of the higher end cameras as produced by Lorex would have provided better images.
