I can see the road from my house (400 feet) in daylight. At night I can see the lights of cars passing by. I park my car next to my door. I can see it perspicaciously, even on a dark night.
I will purchase another.

I was excited to see the improvement in image quality over my other cameras, boy was I disappointed.
The daytime image quality on my SVAT camera that only cost $75 are better. And the nightvision is about the same.
Save yourself some money...don't buy this.

I've had two of these cameras for 14 months now. Camera #1 is not working 1/3 of each day, sometimes the image is black or almost black other times it has no signal. Camera #2 is still working but 1/2 of the night vision leds are out. Both cameras o-rings have developed gaps between the o-ring and the cover glass, the result is that the night vision led light leaks into the camera and causes a light ring at night. I have two other Q-see models, one has the same problem as Camera #1, and the other has the led/o-ring issue. So of the 4 Q-see cameras I have, none are working as they did when first installed, after only 14 months. The PC card and software are working fine.

I bought this Q-see camera to replace an old B&W Radio Shack camera that I've had by the front door for the past 10 years. Based on reviews here I got this model over the less expensive Q-see. I went to a color DVR card (Geovision GV-800) so I wanted to upgrade to a color camera with night vision since my front lamp goes off randomly at around 1 AM. I do like the extruded aluminum housing and the sturdiness of the bracket arm but I do wish they would have made a way to protect and conceal the wire.
To me, if I were "casing a joint" I think it would be easy to approach the camera from the side and just yank the wire out of it with a coat hanger or something. Maybe I'm just paranoid but a cable tucked away or in a conduit would be less prone to cutting.
So my main disappointment is the picture resolution. The field-of-view is a little tight, also. My old Radio Shack would encompass a much wider view. This lens is just a bit too narrow for my use.
Night vision is OK for what it is, didn't expext too much there as any IR illumination is going to be grainy and ghosted. Wish it had audio, too. I bought a mike for about five bucks and tucked it under the visor! Q-see could have added one for cheep!
How bizzare, though... the IR LEDs give off a faint red-orange glow that I've never seen on any of my other IR devices. Can you see the light from your TV remote?
So if you are looking for an inconspicuous camera at night, this is not it.
I'll keep it for now but look for something better. Some of the used color CCTV cameras I picked up on that auction site have a fantastic resolution compared to this Q-see but I'd have to house them in a big enclosure.

Bought this camera based on the reviews. It is much better than the cameras that were included with my Q-See DVR but while the images are clearer, Faces are still difficult to identify at a distance.Colors are a bit muted during the day, Nite vision is pretty grainy and I guess I'm getting about 50-60 of effective lighting with the LEDs but images at night are very poor. Maybe my expectations were too high as I've been using my webcam to monitor the front yard (Logitech 9000) and its images are very clear and you can easily see facial features during the day. Thought this cam would come close, but it didn't. I have it mounted about 15 ft. off the ground watching over my drive way so maybe just the presence of the camera will be enough to deter any evil doers.
