I need to buy an additional camera for my new baby. Is there only one model that works with this unit? If so, what one?

We added an additional camera to the Best View Monitor and it works great. Camera/ Model no. 28074 is compatible. On scan mode it will flip every 8 seconds between cameras. Best of luck.

I bought 2 of these cameras to add to my baby touch boost 28810A and they did NOT work. When I ordered the original 28810A it came with an extra camera in a separate boxes and on the box it says 28840A. For some reason you need the A at the end of the number. I am calling summer infant now and will update as soon as I get an answer.

Don't have both cameras, only Polaroid, but pretty sure they only work with their own brand

Did you ever receive an answer for this question? This is the same model # we are working with in need of a 2nd camera...

I really don't know about the other cameras. This camera is perfect for me. Excellent photos in a well made small camera. There is a problem for some people. You must have read about it. It hasn't affected me at all.

This is a four channel model so you cannot upgrade. Check out other eight and sixteen channel models which allow you to add additional cameras.

You have to look on this camera on youtube. There are several very good videos about this model including all the items that come with it.

I am having the SAME problem ... I did all this research and determined that the 880IS was the camera for me. And I saw a number of posts indicating that people were paying around two fifty for it. And now ... I cannot find it ANYWHERE!! Does anyone know if it is discontinued or replaced by a newer model?

Mine did not work at all out of the box. It appeared to be a flaw with the unit not linkage to the camera. Good luck.

I'm also looking for a camera to take photos of children and was considering this model. If this is not the one, what would you recommend?

After being "forced" into a more expensive model, the unit is still useless as it is limited by the software. I have not had any success on either of the three you asked about.

Hi Michael, my apolgies for the late reply. I have updated my review and went from 5 stars to 1. Out of 2 cameras, I am now on my 3rd replacement. One of my replacements is a V2 and that one has been working well with no issues for 2 months now. I just got my other replacement last week so early days and amazingly it was a V1. I emailed them and they said they were out of V2's and the V1 should be just fine now. I am hoping I will have no more issues - they otherwise work very well.

I have no idea since mine came with the camera and I haven't had the need for another...sorry.

hi there....I have this unit, absolutely love it for location shoots for my clients to view right on the spot..they are always impressed when they see it on an ipad....any DLSR that has a usb connection on the side of the camera should work...you just need to find out what kind of usb connection it is, whether it is a micro or something else..cords come with the camranger and the cords should have come with your camera too. If you have any questions on buying the unit, contact them directly they are great about answers. Also, if you buy it and shoot raw, it is extremely slow. I contacted them and they told me to put it in small jpeg and raw so the viewing would be faster for download. hope this helps

we use one that has a hrd drive in it. There is one that comes as part of a package deal with four or six cameras that works great. I hope this answers what you needed.

I'm wondering this too. Did either of you end up getting one of the cameras? Any reviews?
