What is the RANGE? What is the maximum range of this camera's motion detection?

When I had the outdoor camera attached to my garage (while it worked,anyway) it was about a 100' out to the street and the camera generally had no problem detecting vehicles as they drove by the house. People at that range, however were not always detected. On my front porch the camera picks up people walking, probably, around 70' to 80' or so. Having said that, If you get an outdoor camera that works dependably over the long haul, consider yourself lucky. Mine worked, maybe six months then started working sporadically untill it quit working altogether. I have an indoor camera outside on my front porch (protected from the weather) and it has worked flawlessly for a few years. In reviews of the outdoor camera it has been documented there can be a problem with a capacitor or something on the circut board that fails due to heat issues. Too bad because the logitech system is far and away the easiest system to set up, and review recorded images. I just could not deal with the undependability of the outdoor camera and installed a different system (with night vision capability).

There's a sensitivity level you can play around with. At a sensitive setting, my camera picked up dust flying by it in the middle of the night. I think the AC kicked in and blew some dust and the infrared was able to detect it. As long as it detects motion within the range you pick, it will start recording (you have 2 different ranges you can set).

It detects motion from up to 15 feet away according to the listing so if it's in that range then yes.

Thats a very good question... The glass is not clear so I'm not sure if the sensor would be able to detect motion at all times.

Hi it dose not have a motion detection. It is a camera lens what you wire into your monitor.

I believe the remote is supposed to have a 75ft range under ideal conditions. In practice, ours (outside, with no walls in the way) seem to have an effective remote range of 40-50ft. The motion detection range, though, may even be better than the 25ft claimed range.

Sorry but I do not use the motion detectio0n feature. I do agree that the instructions are poor.

I have yet to try this camera at night. It does, however, work well in low light conditions. I would say that the range for good images is around 15 feet, but this camera does not have the same high resolution as a normal point and shoot.

I use this in a barn. You are either in range or out of range. The closer the camera is to what you are watching the clearer it is. It truly is 600 ft range.

It's mounted 7'-10' high to be detected maximum distance up to 60'-70' (@75F or less). if just detects 10'-20' away that have to adjust sensitivity knob via clockwise to increase its sensing range.

For a complete understanding of how trail cameras visit trailcampro.com. The flash range is totally different from the detection range. Detection is triggered by heat and movement. Check detection range by walking across the camera's field of view not directly towards it. A detection range of 50 feet or more is excellent. This camera will not flash with rechargeable batteries and needs lithium batteries to perform best. See website above for real world tests and comparisons among many cameras.

Yes, this IP cam does sense motion and sound. I can't find specific documentation about range for either BUT... Motion and sound detection can either be armed or disarmed in the web browser interface under the Alarms tab - it's like logging onto your router. Note there are multiple options for what happens when motion and/or sound are triggered: send an email, upload image to an FTP site, or begin local recording to a separate connected device. Short story, I tried the motion and sound detection. With three cats, I was getting emails all the time for motion. I only use sound detection and that works great.

The camera will not trigger that far away. I would say 60 feet is the max. However the field of vision is much further than that. You would get clear pictures out to 150 feet I would estimate.

The one I purchased works fine. It does have a very sensitive motion sensor with a wide angle. Check to see if there is any moving object within the swath of the detector.

I am not sure how it detects motion , i think it detects sudden changes in light intensity . I have it mounted in the garage facing garage door and about 18 feet away from it and it was detecting motion through the little garage door glass opening. Motion sensitivity is adjustable .

The manual implies up to 50 feet. I deliberately aimed my unit to try and cover a limited area, but it seems to detect people at about 25', cats at about 12' and moving cars at about 40'. I'm sure the range would be greater if I aimed the sensor up a bit more.

I'm only using it as a camera connected to DVR. I have not used any other features that may be on the camera. I am unaware that it has motion detection built in. Regards
