The only other IP camera I've owned has been the Axis 206 (both wireless and wired). Both had surprisingly good image quality for their size, although for the price one shouldn't be too surprised. Unfortunately, my wired 206 died about a year after I got it, after the warranty had expired. Very disappointing. But Axis is probably the only decent player in this particular price segment ("good performance but barely affordable"), so I went with the M1011 as a replacement.

The setup is as easy as the 206's was, and I was pleased to see they changed the Ethernet jack to point out the back instead of down like the 206's annoying jack. The lens is NOT adjustable (the 206's was), but the focal distance is good as is for my purposes. The image quality is acceptable but noticeably poorer than the 206's. I had heard this but found it hard to believe. Yet, there it is, a grainy, cross-hatched image of my dark driveway. The daylight image is also noticeably grainy, even at the motion JPEG setting. That's disappointing, but I guess not a deal breaker as long as the camera is reliable. Finally, the construction quality really isn't as good as the older cams. The mounting pedestal is noticeably flimsier and the case seems lighter and it seems to flex a bit when I plug in the cables. Again, as long as durability is good, this probably doesn't matter much and the clamp mount that comes with this camera (in addition to the pedestal) is a nice feature. The high point is the ease of setup and the variety of protocols the M1011 supports.

So overall I'm pleased. Still, I can't give this an unqualified recommendation. I hope Axis will work to improve ALL aspects of performance in their next generation of IP cams.

At first I was a little wary of buying a camera that can only produce 640x480 images, when I can buy a 10 megapixel point and shoot for much less, but I realized (duh!) that these cameras serve a completely different purpose. Not only are the images transmitted over my home network, but this camera is designed to take pictures 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

I found the camera very easy to set up: the directions are clear and on a Mac you don't even have to muck about with IP addresses, it will show up automatically with Bonjour. There are plenty of configuration options, you can include a date and time stamp on the video, adjust the compression settings, change color calibration, and setup events that automatically email you or upload images and video to a remote server. You can also adjust the functionality of the status LED and improve the security of the web interface with IP address filtering.

Ultimately while the software aspects of the camera are acceptable, they aren't good either. Setting up an event server is not exactly easy, and an email notification that motion has occurred may not be enough. I would highly recommend pairing the camera with a purpose built software solution. I found a relatively new program called "Vitamin D" (google "Vitamin D Video") that seems to work really well.

Finally, I feel that in terms of value-for-money, it wouldn't hurt to make the camera a bit cheaper. In fact, it seems like they should sell these in a two-pack for residential customers (one for the front yard and one for the back) and offer a bit of discount for buying two.

Summary:
I purchased this camera to watch my bird feeder while I'm at work. I have mine set to take an image every 60 seconds and upload the JPG image via FTP to my website so I can view it from anywhere I have an internet connection. I have the camera looking out a window in my living room so it's out of the elements and can still see outside, but for the price, it does the exact task I purchased it for. Also, when I go on vacation, I turn the camera around to watch my living room, and use it as a security camera that I can check anytime from my iPhone.

Pros:
It was easy to set up right out of the box. Just plug in a network cord, power cables, follow the easy instructions in the manual, and you're up and running.
The image is pretty crisp and clear, and the camera has never failed me yet after quite a few months of use.

Cons:
Image it takes is only a 640x480 image, but for watching a bird feeder from work, it's good enough for me.
I wish it had a scheduler so you can set it to not take images during the nighttime hours, but that's a minor issue.

Overall, it does the job I hoped it would do, and it does it well. This is Axis' entry level network camera, and it's good enough for me.

In July 2011, I bought two Axis security cameras for my front and back entrance. They worked well for awhile and then started developing a myriad of issues ranging from lost IP addresses, blurry images and several other mind-boggling problems, one of which I believe has to do with hacking.

The company even had to develop a patch to fix the problems, but the fix only lasted for a short time. I disabled the cameras a few months ago and I must say two years-on I never got my money's worth for this two products.

I like that camera because of easy installation process. The only problem I have is no sound.. but it's my fault, I did not read product description.

I stream from that camera directly to Wowza Server. It works great. Camera use about 1200-1600kbps with default settings and good quality video. (don't expect too much, video quality is just OK).

Camera has IPv6 support.
