I have all four cameras posted outside, although all are under eaves, and they work fine. There is the ability to zoom in on the images once they are captured on the dvr.

The camera is waterproof. Depending on how close the person is, the camera will give a recognizable picture. Good Luck and stay safe.

Yes weather proof though we put under the 2nd floor eaves. Good face recognition.We are very satisfied This is upgrade from our old Swann system we were not happy with. We can remotely view these cameras on our android phones did not work on IPhone We did have computer guy set that up for us.We use cable company for Internet Good luck!

Yes. all four of mine are outside, albeit under the eve of roof. And yes you can see a face if you install close enough to ground. if you want to see faces install lower and closer to where the perp would likely be. you cannot have coverage with quality in this system, meaning if you want to cover a lot of area with one cam, you wont be able to make out the faces.

it is weather proof and works in freezing temperature very well. I would recommend this camera for use in cold weather climates with rain and snow

Yup I believe so. We have 3 cameras outside and we live in new York... This winter has been extreme and so far all 3 have withstanded the elements.

It is not an outdoor cam or weather proof unless maybe you have under a over hand and you would have to have a USB AC power source. You can kinda use it as a back up cam but only if you make sure the screen is on as it shuts off after 3 mins.

This is not sold as an exterior video camera. That said, if the area is really sheltered from rain (like a porch), it probably would be OK. Really depends on where you live. If you live in a foggy area, I wouldn't use this outside at all. This camera is NOT weather-proofed, so using it outside might void any product guarantee. You can talk OR listen, but not at the same time--I think

This can be used outdoors but you need to make sure the O-ring/ Gasket is Sealed/Seated properly. After it is seated, this is an IP66 camera rated for outdoors which is water resistant, not fully water proof. Thanks!

not made for outdoors. Use this dome located here @ http://www.amazon.com/Encloser-Loftek-Wansview-Surveillance-Security/dp/B005XU7OL0. This will protect your camera

If protected from direct contact with water, as in up under the eaves of a house, it should be fine, or taped up at the connections! I have nine sets in use now and the camera ends of five sets are outside and have given no trouble in the months we've used them!

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!

Yes. This is an outdoor weather proof camera and a good value for the price

The Cameras for the most part are waterproof. I put silicone grease on the power and video connectors. I have had them over six months outdoors in the rain and snow with no problems.

Mine is in a tree. My problem is always having to climb up there and trim limbs back or when they blow in wind it will set off camera. I had 1000 photos of a tree limb one time. It captures all images all down my driveway. Probably 160 feet. However a person would have to get within 50' I would think for you to be able to make out a face. I just use to see what cars come onto my property while I am gone. I am still on the same batteries after at least a year. I have mine mounted about 10 or 12 feet high. I have to get out the ladder to take the card in and out.

Honestly I didn't see anything stating it was weather resistant... so far the camera has been amazing camera for the price.

These are not outdoor rated. It is physically possible to put it outdoors, but I wouldn't expect it to last long! If you are looking for a good outdoor camera in a similar price range and POE check out the Ubiquiti line of cameras.

It claims to be an "outdoor" camera, however, the camera is plastic junk! So I dont how long it would make it outdoors, much less lasting any kind of weather.

Yes, youbcan use this outdoors. Just to help with weather-proofing, I put a small piece of plastic mounted right above the camera "tube".
