Product Description

The 5.5-inch black-and-white monitor features an auto-switch function so you can view the 2 operating security cameras from the same monitor with pre-set timing. The built-in infrared LED's surrounding the camera enable you to monitor at night or in low-light conditions. The two real cameras are designed with a superior black-and-white lens and a built-in sensitive microphone allowing you to see and hear clearly. All four cameras are identical, which gives thieves the impression that your premises are protected by a higher level of surveillance.

This security camera works great for the low cost that it is. It has a very sharp and clear black and white picture. It dosen't show up in the dark, but if I leave the pourch light on you can see enought to identify someone. It was very simple to set up. My only quirk with the set up was that you could not unplug the camera input lines from the camera itself and with the two RCA jack plugs on the other end of the very long line you had to drill a fairly large hole (5/8") in order to fish them thru the wall and fish the entire length of the line thru the hole even if you only had to go 4-5 feet. This is still a great set up and will record to a regular VCR for upto 9 hours (on a 9 hour tape purchased at Radio Shack)

Swann DIY Security Kit October 10, 2007
This camera set works great at night. The mic is very sensitive..you can hear the wind blowing , crickets etc. The only thing that I did not know is that if the cameras are placed directly in the sunlight the cameras picture is totally white on the display monitor. So, if you have alot of direct sun I would suggest you try to place the cameras in the shady area of your property as you will get no picture on your monitor. This system helped me understand what was going on at night with my motion sensor lights. Also, I recommend motion sensor lights in the area that you wish to photograph at night. When an event occurs the motion lights pop on and your monitor will pop on. This set helped me out alot as I was able to understand what was happening on my dark property.

good bang for the buck January 17, 2008
By car nut
Amazon Verified Purchase
surprisingly decent setup and can't beat the price.
cameras have gotten dropped a few times (i've not yet mounted them/fished wire) and still work fine.
poor detail at distances over about 30 feet, but quite decent closer up.
comes with everything you need and works as advertised.
