Product Description: The camera's built-in sensor is a pyroelectric infrared sensor, which means it uses infrared rays to detect temperature differences within its range that are emitted naturally by people, animals, etc. The sensor can be used to trigger the camera to buffer (i.e., temporarily store) camera images in its memory. You can view these images later as desired. The sensor can also be used to trigger the camera to transfer images to someone or somewhere, by FTP, E-mail, or HTTP. Privacy mode allows you to protect your privacy by hiding the lens inside the camera, preventing camera images from being seen. If users are accessing the camera when privacy mode is turned on, the camera image area displayed in their web browsers turns gray. No camera pages can be accessed by users while privacy mode is turned on. Once privacy mode is turned off, users can press the refresh button in their web browsers to view images again. Built-in Microphone
Very pleased So far I am very pleased with this device. Through research I learned that the Panasonic chip is one of the best video chips and I can back that up. It may not look very heavy duty but during installation, I dropped it about 7 feet onto concrete. I never would have guessed that it would continue to work but it did. The web server is very easy to configure and use. Since it uses an open video protocal, it works well with the IPhone (controls and video fit nicely onto screen), and I'm even able to easily diplay the video on a custom web page.
Great camera I have had this camera for 3 weeks now and it is great. I am using it as a petcam for my dogs while away from my house and so far it has been wonderful. The quality is great for the price of the camera, and the pan/tilt is very helpful. I set the camera up in about a hour, with the free website you get with the camera. You don't have to be technically savvy to set it up, it has detailed step by step instructions. Definitely worth the price!!!
It's doesn't get easier than this... Installed the camera and was up and running in 5 minutes. It doesn't get easier that that. I used my existing LINKSYS router that I purchased for wireless access for our PC's.
Decided to go with wired since the router is in my home office and plan to use it for telecommuting purposes. You can't beat the price!!!
I do plan to purchase at least a couple more (wireless) for home security purposes.
GUYS: Read and follow the directions!!!!
Great for the money I highly recommend this camera WHEN YOU FACTOR IN THE COST. I have DSL (PPPoe)and according to some documentation with Panic-sonic, it does not like DSL. Have not had any problems at all. Maybe the firmware update and also I am using Cat6 ethernet cable...?
Panasonic BL-C111A Network Camera Wired Setup was easy and works as advertised. I own 3 of them. Make sure the camera is upgraded to most current version of firmware.
