I was offput by the price at first, but as it turns out these saved me money by getting less cameras.

I installed two of these.  They are angled on the corners and with them I have high definition images from a few feet in front of the camera to over a block away.  This camera sees it all.  The night vision works out to about 60 feet in total darkness.  In fact, it sees so well I did not have to get two more cameras because of the wide and deep view this camera has.  Go me!

Since it is POE all I had to run was a CAT5e cable to a POE switch.

You can directly access the camera via an IP address from a website or your iPad, but be forewarned, this type of image quality/throughput isn't for your wireless devices.  I connected mine to a QNAP NAS and access the images from the QNAP via web/wireless/iPad.

Great products at Vivotek.

This camera is great.  Came with the latest firmware version already installed.  Painlessly hooked right into my Blue Iris package.  There's a lot of configuration options available in the supplied software, but I can't figure out how to get sound from the cameras to play in Blue Iris.  Picture quality is very good.  Can't believe these are what they are for the price.

These work best with advanced to expert-level techies.  Have 4 of them monitoring my house and the image quality is superb.  Compared to the previous generation of TRENDNET megapixel cameras, these blow them away!

Video is vastly improved through software video noise reduction.  Had some trouble setting up with Synology NAS, but have both the video and image snapshots working with it now.

I use the TRENDnetView Pro software with these cameras and they work flawlessly.  I also have them working with my android and iOS apps and the performance is great.

Daytime video/image quality is superb, but night vision video/image quality is limited.  I use mine mostly for daytime surveillance.  If you are counting on these to film people using night vision, you will be disappointed.  These are consumer-grade cameras so if you want perfectly detailed night vision video, you will need to buy a more premium camera/system from a specialist.

I absolutely love these cameras. I have 3 teenage daughters at home throughout the day while we are working. I can check up on them if needed anytime. I can not only see them but also hear them.

These are really high quality cameras. I've had them up and running for 4 months and the batteries are still essentially 100%.  There are roughly 4-5 recordings per day. The only reason it gets 4 out of 5 stars is that there is a slight lag time after motion is detected that the recording kicks in. This has caused a lack of capture of activity if someone is walking by quickly.

Love these cameras. SD cards are a must for recording capabilities. Great quality and the peace of mind is easily worth the price. Will buy more in the future. Already bought two.

Good camera. The picture quality under normal lighting is great, and shockingly enough- night vision is even better! The angle is fairly wide, and makes an easy task out of covering an entire building with properly placed cameras. Be sure to buy a good DVR (960h or higher) in order to bring out the fully quality.  Definitely buying more of these soon.

Absolutely amazing cameras for the price, Replaced my old system that was killed by lightning, The pictures are very clear and the nightvision is great! Not to mention the fact its an 8 channel DVR so I can expand the system at any time and it came with a FREE 1 TB Hard drive!!

This is a must purchase for anyone looking for quality affordable security cameras that have good picture quality.

I have two of these and they have been working great for about 2 months.  Getting them setup is a little goofy (I think D-Link should default to DHCP not some hard-coded address).  You cannot beat the price/performance of these guys.
The IPView software that is provided really kicks these things up a level.  I am able to have my screen split into 4 parts to show up to 4 cameras at once.  You can also access each camera via a web browser (passwd protection, java or active-x, ability to ftp images, etc)
I HIGHLY reccomend these cameras.  I have used Axis products in the past - and yes the image on the Axis is better - but the price was 20 times higher also.

This is my third one, I love these cameras...very clear images even in night mode.  LOVE the SD storage option so I don't have to commit to a subscription in the "cloud" or have another account built in the cyber space world.  Only issue I have with this one is the base tension in the hinge is not very tight, so the camera slips and I have to fix it daily.  Other than that, it is the best out there in my opinion, for what I am looking for.  I was very sad to hear these have been discontinued.

Great cameras, came on time, easy to install, clear directions. Overall good experience. Only thing I didn't like is that the cameras only allow viewing live/real-time footage unless you subscribe to their cloud service (which wasn't available when I purchased) or you must buy an expensive Zmodo storage/replay device

Brought the 6 camera 1080p 8 channel NVR in early September, installed mid September. The picture quality is assume, night vision is also great.
Mid November I started having a problem with the NVR losing connection with all the cameras. Signal strength was good on all cameras. Problem ended up being in the circuit board in the NVR. After communicating with Sue from customer service several times, they sent me a new NVR minus the hard drive. Swapped the hard drive out and re matched the camera codes to the new NVR and all is well. Just a lot of work taking cameras back down to re matching codes to NVR and reinstalling the cameras. These are a lot better than my old Lorex cameras

Great Camera.  The wide angle view is amazing, and these do soooo much better in low light than the so called "night-view" cameras. I have now replaced all 4 of the standard cameras that came with my kit with these. I get a much better view of my property with these cameras.

I ordered several of these and I am quite happy with them so far.

The setup is much improved from the previous cameras.

Image quality is very good day and night - the POE works very well and since I have the router on a UPS I don't need to worry about worry outages

Issues:
I am having issues with their cloud app - I cant use live view and that makes it difficult to point.
The newer cameras are not even listed in the app
I can view all the recordings though. Older cameras work great with live view.

Mounting options are a bit limited and there is only a single screw holding this to the mount - I'd prefer two so it is not so easy to turn it..
You should be able to mount it from the top as well as the bottom IMO.
The whole you need to make to get the connector through is ridiculous - 1 1/2 inches.
You should be able to screw the back off and connect it so you only need a small hole for the wires.

These cameras have very good quality video and work well day and night.. The installation isn't as easy as I want but with support I got it figured out.
I love that I can pull up my app and see what's going on.  I have them installed in my businesses.
All in all I think they are a good thing to have.  I want an alarm option that will create noise after hours and notify me.
