Can these cameras be mounted upside down ? Would they work outside if they were under a shelter protected from rain ?

These do work mounted upside down and there are outdoor cases you can purchase separately.

Yes they can be mounted upside down and the video oriented the proper way. I am sure they would work outside. But they are definitely not weatherproof, so the protected area, better be just that, protected.

Yes they can. I have one hanging upside down for about 7 months now and works great! You just have to flip the image in what ever camera app you are going to use.

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 them base down in outside porch lights so I haven't tried them upside down.

It's an outdoor camera, but mine are mounted under the eaves. I can't attest to the weatherproof status of this unit if subjected to direct rain.

Our area can range from 20s to humid 100. We've had the cameras through a whole year so we can say that so far the temps haven't stopped them from working. They are placed under carport roofs and house eaves to avoid direct moisture but still no humidity issues and no problems from wind.

I returned these cameras back; they are not rated for outdoor weather (rain, humidity). I think they will do night vision also but if you live where it is humid and rain do not get these. you want a camera IR rating of 65 or better for all weather use.

If you mount it on the windshield, your camera will record upside down. If you can flip the video over in your computer then it will look OK. If you place the dash mountadapter on the dash then the device will be in a position to mount the camera upright.

Don't know but a few years back I installed an ancient Sony camera in an enclosure and mounted it on the side of our home. I also bought a (believe it or not) cheap plastic mount that swiveled the enclosure with a remote controlled little motor...worked great and the pictures which I copied onto my hard drive looked fine. I don't see any reason why this newer camera won't produce good pictures mounted inside of a weather proof enclosure.

These cameras are not vandal proof. If you mount them in a manner that is accessible by miscreants, they will be vulnerable and likely vandalized.

Yes, I have mine mounted outside under the eves and out of direct weather exposure.

I have not had the opportunity to check them out in inclement weather,so I am not sure. give that they do not explicitly state anything about that,I would be sceptical of using them out side when it's raining. But I can say that they are optically very good. I would suggest that you use a tripod or other steadying device if you intend to view objects for an extended length of time.

Yes, it can be mounted upside down. The internal software makes the adjustment nicely. Including panning left and right. I have two of the cameras hanging upside down from the rafters of my warehouse. Forget about wireless though, highly unreliable.

I insalled similar camera (the chrome one) with stud facing front and camera facing down. Installed on a truck tail gate. Image is upside down. I should of asked before I bought!

Yes, i mounted mine just under the roof line it doing just fine in heavy rain and sun of Houston tx. I mounted it high to keep it out of reach so it would be hard to tamper with. But it has also made it a chore to get the memory card out. I do not have it directly connected to a computer

I would not mount a camera on these. The reason is the wire that wraps behind your neck does not appear to be strong enough to add a camera weight to either side. I assume that the ear covers will fall off the ears. They do not sit very well anyway. I have purchased a pair of over the head mounted o ones which are much more stable, might work for your needs with the camera. Good Luck Amigo! atxguy

You can mount it as you would any typical tripod mounted camera. As for the software, I am using it with a movie editing program and it can correct for the different angles. I don't know that the camera comes with any sort of software that can correct mounting it upside down. Mine certainly did not.
