Decent Cheap Surveilance Camera 07/13/2006
This review is from: D-Link DCS-900 640 x 480 MAX Resolution RJ45 Internet Camera
Pros:
The price, easy setup, pretty much does what it says.
Cons:
Poor image compression engine, When motion recording, the image on the preview looks nice and sharp, but once recorded, the image is heavily compressed and looks nothing like the preview image. There is no way to reduce the recording video compression. But it is pretty much the softwares fault and not the camera's. If you are going to use it with your own software to recrd motion, then it should be alright. Also, I am frustrated with unintelligent and oversensitive motion sensing. When set to the lowest setting, it still picks up slightest changes in the image, such as birds flying by, far away lights etc.
Overall Review:
On the other hand, if you are goign to use it to record inside, where it is absolutely still, then this camera is aewsome choice!
