Does this unit have live video, or does it take a picture as some of the units I have seen?

Absolutely, it is live video, along with 2-way voice communications. We're not talking HD quality, but it is plenty good enough to see if it's a friend, or a stranger. I'm a double amputee and it has saved me utter frustration from having to try to answer the door only to find it is some strange salesman. It has the ability to operate an electrically controlled door lock, however I have yet to try that feature. Hope this helps!

It has live video and image is sharp. The sound is also good. I bought two and one is mounted on the door inside and I guess too close to mike/speaker and it causes feed back at high volume. Good buy

Yes...it has camera and video mode,,,,and I think it can be broken down from video runs into still shots, as well. We love it--great underwater video and pictures--posted a golden retriever walking on bottom of pool on YouTube.

Yes, generally it takes good pictures. It also has a little box that recognizes faces. The sound quality on the little videos it takes is amazingly good.

Yes, it does have a built in video camera. Look above the screen on the image and you'll see a "hole" in the middle, that's the camera.

Hi Jennifer, It only records video. Although they quality is fairly decent enough for you to take stills from it. Hope that helps. Desi

If I understand the question, yes. You see the video that is being recorded via the outputs on this unit.

Mine did. I think this is an ok camera. I have had issues with it focusing well, especially when I'm inside. I have also had issues getting the videos to play back on anything but the actual camera itself, too.

It does have a web camera and will take pictures. They will not be awesome as I believe it only has a 1.8 MP camera. It uses a software suite called "youcam".

Yes, it can capture stills both from video playback (in review mode) and in the moment (in photo mode).

The unit does not record video but your computer can. Software is available from many vendors for free or at cost to record the output or you can have the units send snapshots of activity when motion occurs.

the cameras only broadcast the video, it is the software and what you view it on that records, but you can record...Foscam dose make a similar camera that takes and SD card and records on the card. that might be and easier install for what you would like to use the camera for...

It does do video but would not recommend the camera. I was not impressed. Would pay a little more and get a better one. Quality was not the best.

It takes video just fine. I have only taken short videos. There are other type of cameras designed for mounting to bikes and helmets! This is an awesome camera. It takes incredible picts. Its small and easy to use! I have loved my and my son and his girlfriend both have one as well and love theirs! Definitely recommend!

hello jasmine, the camera works but only memory for storing photos. For video has to be with minidv tape.

It does also take still photos, but the quality is nowhere as good as the videos and even cell phone cameras look better. Still camera is about 1 mega pixel..

I have not done any video recording but I have read that the autofocus doesn't work well when in video mode. The still photos are great.

It's just a camera. If you plug it to TV it's live, if you plug it to a recording device (VCR, pc, dvr) the device will record the feed from the camera.
