Does this camera have motion-sensing capability, and a feature to email or text pictures when it senses motion?

The camera has motion detection capabilities and can be configured to email or FTP images.

Maybe.There is configuration that will instruct the camera to send an Email when motion is sensed. You can use this between the hours she is gone, so the camera will sense motion between times it should not.However, please be aware this camera is not for a beginner to configure. Someone with technical knowledge will probably have to get involved.

You can set the sensitivity on each camera for more or less motion. I don't know if it can be sent to email, we didn't try that. Hope this helps

Sorry. I haven't used the cameras for motion detection. They can be set up to notify your iPhone, iPad upon motion with the Foscam Pro app. The app can record a picture or up to 60 seconds of video upon motion. I just haven't had the need to do it at this point. The night vision on the camera is pretty good but I'm not sure how far it will "see" things through a window especially at night.

No it doesn't record video, but it can be set up to take a snapshot and email it to you when motion is detected.

No, sorry. You can read your email and such. Sort of like a PC on WiFi, you can access the internet. It takes pictures and uses them to locate for the GPS. Take a picture and then the GPS can bring you back to the picture. /Larry

No, there is a separate (included) USB sensor that will detect your motion. I prefer this to save battery life.

Camera Based Motion detection has always been problematic. the best ones let you set specific areas to monitor (like your desk rather that your whole office, or the gate and doorway rather that the whole back yard, etc). I haven't bought this one yet so I don't know if that feature is offered, but it is pretty standard.

My camera was set to send an email when it detected motion. It was aimed through a front window towards the street and would send emails day or night when a car or person went by. It was useful for monitoring when a delivery was made to my front door. It would sometimes even send an email during lightning storms, probably due to the sudden change in brightness outside. I do not know how it detects motion, however.

No motion detection built into the camera. It can function as a web cam so maybe motion detection could implemented through a computer.

Yes. You can set to motion detect but it is fairly sensitive. Leaves blowing trip it. It trips with a 3sec or so delay. Records for 30 seconds, then off if no more motion. Also has sound and good night vision. Not bad for the price. Recommend large SD card to store data.

No. It is motion activated. You set it up leave it and it only takes pics and video when something moves in front of it day or night

Yes, the camera is motion activated. I have been pleased with the performance of the Browning camera. I have been using it for a season in the south -FL so no cold weather.

Not really. It is designed as a flexible and good recording/webcam. There is nothing that activates it through motion. It is very good at what it does but I think you may be better served with something designed to a surveillance camera's specific job...

After you install the software from the CD, you should be able to configure email and video. I had to find a Windows Vista machine to setup the motion detection. I have not setup video recording yet but I can login to the camera and watch streaming. For email, you will need to know your email providers settings so that the camera can send emails from one of your accounts.

When you're a novice like myself, the one thing everyone should do is tweak the "sensitivity" in advanced settings for "Motion Detection", I stopped a sh.. load of unnecessary e-mail notifications. AND also (for new "owners of), you DO have to "continue anyway" and click on that when you get certificate security warnings. There's also a recent firmware update for (DCS-932L)to 2.01 - probably the same with other cameras.
