Amazon.com Product Review

The Samsung 7597 PrivateEye StealthCam 2.4GHz Wireless Camera allows you to put a color camera in places where it's difficult or impossible to run video cable, and is especially suited to installations requiring discretion. Just connect the 7597's camera to its included AC adapter, and it will transmit sharp, color images up to 300-feet to a wireless receiver that you connect to any TV, monitor or VCR via an included connecting cable.

The Samsung 7597's camera includes a built-in rechargeable battery that can operate the camera completely wire free for up to two hours, making this system perfect for applications where you need total portability. Designed to fit almost anywhere, even on a remote-controlled airplane, the camera measures just 3.5-inches long and 0.75-inches in diameter. The 7595 is built with a 0.33-inch color CMOS (complimentary metal-oxide semiconductor) image sensor with a pinhole lens that covers a 90 degree area, and achieves a horizontal resolution of 330 TVL (TV lines) down to a minimum illumination of one Lux.

Technical Features:

• Resolution: 330 horizontal TVL
• Image sensor: 0.33-inch color CMOS
• Sensitivity: minimum illumination of 1 Lux
• Camera dimensions: 0.75 x 3.5 x 0.75 inches (W x D x H)

To prevent interference with other 2.4GHz wireless devices in your home, the Samsung 7595's camera and receiver can operate in any of three frequencies, selectable with dip switches, which also allows you to expand the 7597 into a three-camera system. Users should note that the CMOS image sensor in this camera may become permanently damaged if exposed to long hours of direct sunlight or halogen light, so the camera should not be mounted or pointed directly at the sun or other bright-light sources.

About Surveillance Camera Technical Features
Lux rating is the measurement used to indicate how sensitive a camera is to light, and stands for the level of light reflected off a piece of paper by a candle from one meter away. Thus a sensitivity of three would mean a camera could generate an acceptable picture of a piece-of-paper-sized object that was illuminated by the equivalent of three candles from one meter away. The lower the level, the better the camera's ability to work in low-light conditions. The camera's resolution should be greater than or equal to the resolution supported by the system's recorder or monitor. The S/N, or signal to noise ratio, is an important measure of a camera's quality. A poor camera, low-light conditions or poor wiring causes "noise" which consumes processing power and disk space. A camera with a wide dynamic range is ideal, especially for recording areas in which both indoor and outdoor light are present. CCD (charge-coupled device) sensors provide high-quality images that are less susceptible to noise. CMOS (complimentary metal-oxide semiconductor) sensors offer less image quality, but are usually more cost-effective and energy efficient.
