Will this camera pick up images through a window. For example if I put it on a table inside to view outside will I get a glare?

Yes, it will give a glare. However, the farther from the glass, the less pronounced it will be.
1864727
Yes. I have this sitting on top of a cabinet, and the night vision light shines back at the camera, making the pic super bright, because of the cabinet's crown molding. I had to keep moving my camera higher to avoid the reflection, but a window would surely be a problem.

It all depends on the angle of the light source in the house and the camera. during the daytime.This camera is rated for out door use. There is a little rubber cup that is used to keep water out of the ethernet connector.You will need to put it on the ethernet cable before cropping on the RJ45 ethernet connector. Also after dark the Infra red Light will cause a glare on the window no matter what you do.

Yes you will pick up identifiable images, but with some glare if the Sun is shining on window.

I haven't tried it but I believe a night the inferred will glare back off of the window.

I went to the beach with this camera, which I just purchased, to take pictures for my friend's Christmas cards. We went close to sunset and depending on where the sun was in the sky, the glare was an issue. I found myself adjusting my angle not only to keep the glare off the screen, but to keep the glare out of the picture. I live in NW Florida, so your experience and conditions may vary. I took some amazing pictures with this camera that day. Why don't you ask the guy at best buy to walk outside with you with the camera to help you make a decision? The people at my local best buy are always more than accomodating. I went to the beach with this camera, which I just purchased, to take pictures for my friend's Christmas cards.

you ca not. since it is glass. it is like owning a plasma tv great picture, but the glass panel produces glare or reflections. you could put an anti glare film on top of the glass if you want. it works but seems a bit over kill, but works.

I tested it indoors and quality was fine. I imagine quality in daylight is better than artificial light...just like most cameras.

Yes, you can get the glass out. The glare is only a problem with the IR's mounted on the camera. I just open the cameras and unplug the IR assembly.

The 700n is an IR capable camera. So if you use it indoor and have it pointing out the window, the IR will get reflected back and blind the camera. This is true if the window is modern and treated to reflect the sun's UV/IR spectrum (most multiplane windows fall into this category, single pane windows not so much hence why they suck for insulation) :-). If you intend to use it indoors and point it out a window, disable the IR capability, or buy the 700i model which has no IR capability and a little less costly. Of course for either scenario, the camera would only be able to view outdoors during nighttime if an outside motion light lit up the viewing area. Otherwise it would see nothing but darkness. With regards to the reflection off the glass, that is a function of the glass, background light sources, and the angle at which the camera is pointed out the window. It is NOT a function of the camera lens. Just put the camera flat against the window pane so it is perpendicular to minimize any reflection or stay light source the lens may see, indoor room lighting.

If you put the camera in your window facing outside (like mine is) you can use it to capture outside activity, this camera is not weather-proofed and is to be used inside only!

If you can stand it on window sill or mount it to something,You can but in bright sunlight it may give a glare. I have hadit take really clear pics and a few washout pic. We use it to hunt, I love it. Have other brand cams but like Wildgame the best.

It will not record through the window AT NIGHT. The lights on it shine off the window. It works just fine during the day through the window. Better without the screen, but still is fine with the screen. I love this camera in every other way.

I've not experienced a problem with glare. My tv is next to a window but angled at approximately 45 degrees away from the windo.

It works well through a glass window. See an example here. The camera is behind a glass window.http://www.tenm3.com/blogs/?p=180Follow the link and click on the photo to see the live weather. The feed is from the TenM3 service

I haven't had any issues with glare and I have the tv in a room with a lot of windows. Maybe it's where I have the tv, but no issues

Yes, it does, but not very well when the upper pane (if there is an upper pane) is all the way up. With the glass up, you get reflection which can interfere with the image. With my storm door, I've lowered the pane, but the cam still has to "look" through the screen, which seems to produce "distortion" - i.e., there seems to be too much light coming in.

I don't like this camera. I shoot inside and there's tons of light coming through the living room window and it's still grainy. I think a video camera is just one of those things you can't go cheap on.

Yes, but remember that this camera has a slightly narrow field of view. You're not going to get a wide angle view of the surroundings. Also, be advised that viewing this image requires that a special plug-in be loaded into your browser. You can't just go up to any PC and view the image.

I have a 6020 that sits near some side windows. I was concerned about the same thing. While there is a small amount of glare, it is fairly minimal. The glare-reduction coating works really well. I looked for glare (and saw it) at first, but now I just don't notice it anymore. Note that I generally keep the shutters on the side windows closed. If I had wide-open, unfiltered windows, this may have ended up being more of a concern for me. That said, this is an AMAZING television!

Glare, no, but it will wash out the picture depending on how strong your lighting is
