No! Not weather proof. READ their manual: Although the cameras are water resistant they are not waterproof. Cameras are intended for use in direct exposure to water, rainor snow. http://www.svat.com/downloads/manuals/CV301-8CH-008-manual.pdf

I have this exact setup, purchased through amazon. They are mounted under sofit, and so far been in sleet, snow, rain for days straights, and very hot and humid weather. In my experience yes they are so far in fact weatherproof

These cameras are not intended for use outside. They can't get wet. However you can use them. I have one mounted under the edge of the roof to give it some protection from the weather. I also modified a dummy housing to fit one camera. When you do that you can't use the globe because it reflects the infrared back into the lense

I have used them for outside, but put them in a birdhouse or some other container so they are not out in the elements. They are great little cameras.

I have not paid any attention to the warranty conditions. Water resistant? ..... I live in the Puget Sound area and have left the camera out in the rain for as much as four days at a time with no problem.

It is not weatherproof like camera's intended for external use are. Power connection is not waterproof, and no hood to protect the lens from sun glare. I would not recommend.

I am not sure what the temperature specs are for the camera's other than the description says that they are weather proof. You might want to try looking at the company website for Q-See and contact them about the temperature range. Good luck.

I wouldn't rely on it for rainy weather however, I do highly recommend the case! It has 2 parts so it is possible for the water to get in and I am not sure how the leather will handle. If you are looking for a good waterproof case try the 'Canon Waterproof Housing WP-DC44 for Canon PowerShot G1 X Digital Camera' I just purchased for our most recent trip to a location with frequent tropical rains and it was also a great case!! Hope that helps.

I honestly do not know. Although I use it both indoors and outdoors, it does not appear to have any extra protection. I have used it in light rain and snow, but I would probably be cautious in a downpour. That being said it takes great pictures and we have been pleased with it.

I brought the cameras to the tropics where rainfall is higher than here in the US. So far I did not have any problems with water going into the cameras. I should say they are waterproof.

It is NOT waterproof or water resistant. You can look for a camera enclosure and that will work. The range will be reduced as it will be in a metal box. To prevent this, get a cheaper plastic box.

The camera is water proof. I have used one for my work in harsh environments for some time now, and it is an excellent camera. Due to this, I bought one for my son.

We got two of these. IMO it is the best bridge camera out there. It is weather sealed, and we've had no problem taking it out in a light drizzle; I wouldn't risk heavy rain or putting it under a waterfall...hope this helps. If you can, follow @brimarkphoto on twitter for more.

No, the camera has a water protective cover on it but this is just for possibility of maybe a light rain, not submersable

The camera is weather proof, as long as it is not exposed directly to rain or snow. Mine is mounted under the eaves near the front door and I have not had any problems so far.

I have never used it in rain. Would be ok in light rain. I would keep a water proof bag handy inside backpack for camera

This is a very capable camera that has fair waterproofing. I don't know how it would take extreme cold. Be sure and choose a lense that is also weather proofed. Picture quality of this camera is very good.

No it is not - water or moisture would damage the camera as there is a micro USB connection port on the side. Almost all water-proof cameras will advertise a "water proof" feature if it is included.
