SWANN Wide-Angle CamJun 23, 2006
By Qurus2000 This is a good all-around indoor camera. It uses an RCA connection, so if you are plugging into a DVR that uses the CCTV-style connection, you will need an adapter. I got the adapter at Radio Shack for a few bucks. The "wide-angle" lens was wider than standard, but a bit dissapointing for me. I got around this by moving the camera back until I could see what I needed to monitor. Overall, this is a great little camera for the price.

Works very wellMar 23, 2010
By Tim I had a sticky fingered tenant sharing my home and the first cam I tried from Radio Shack was more expensive and useless in low light. I put this in my basement and ran it to my computer to record automatically when it detected movement. Worked great and did quite well in a dim basement. I haven't tried the wide angle lens yet. I also ran this on the dash of my car as an inconspicuous camera and ran it to the inputs on a camcorder. Worked very well in all lighting and the night recording was very good. Audio seemed fine as well.

Excellent choice in this price range!Mar 11, 2009
By C. SILVA I recently upgraded all my cameras in my business to these (I previously had the Swann B&Ws which lasted without problems for 6 years). An excellent color camera for this price range - much better picture quality than many of the others (Q-see!) of similar cost.
It is very small and discreet and my B&W Swanns were very reliable for a long time. Very easy to connect and produces a very good quality picture. Only issues - (1) definitely needs a lighted area - don't try in darkened areas - (2) not a real wide angle on the lens, and the changeable wide angle is not much wider (although changeable lenses are available like the extra wide and the fisheye) - (3) audio mic is not great.
Still a very good camera for the price. A reasonable quality option for home and small business.

Swann DIY Security Camera w/Bonus Wide Angle LensDec 12, 2007
By S. White This is a good camera for tight places. The wide angle lens could be a little more wide angle.
Mini camNov 07, 2011
By Nelnsuz This camera is nice and small as stated. There are two things that I do not like. first, the camera needs a ton of light to get a good Picture. Second, it's hard to keep the whole frame in focus.
