I have used a number of different security systems, webcams, outdoor and indoor cams, so not new to the hardware and software used with these various systems.This product impresses me with the level of care and quality that has gone into the hardware, in particular.The software and available apps, is also very well managed. It does take some focus and attention to the documentation to understand all the features and how to setup the access to the camera storage options, operational mode settings and how to save and access the captured videos and pictures.Also, to be clear; this is not a live action/wifi-accessed/live viewing camera, as you might find in the 'baby monitor' or 'nanny' cams on the market. This camera has a different approach and purpose to image capture. You can view the images captured, on the LCD in the cam, or download the videos and pictures to your mobil device or computer with the included USB cable. In addition to 8 AA batteries, which seem to last a long time, there is also an option to use a 6v 2A electric wall adaptor, to power it.The options of the image resolution is very impressive: you can save your captured videos in space saving lower formats or in VERY hi-res formats that show incredible detail and quality. Those high-res images, of course, take up a lot of space on your storage medium, so consider that when install your SD or micro-sd (in a SD holder).Storage medium (SD cards) are not included with the camera. However, I consider this a minor inconvenience as there are so many options available. I used a PNY 128GB Elite-X (class 10), micro-sd, in a SD holder; and it works great. I have a standard sized SD on order, to compare capture quality and download speeds. Please also note: a class 10 SD card is required. I attempted to use a non-class 10, slower sd card, and it was not recognized. It requires the higher speed of the class 10 SD's.I don't have any video or picture captures to share here as my camera is being used as a security camera in my computer repair shop, but those I have taken and reviewed are more impressive than any small or many 'professional' quality security systems I have seen before. I can recommend this camera to the trail cam enthusiast, as well as anyone looking to have an inexpensive, easy to setup and use, video security system. I have included some un-boxing pictures, to show what is included. Please note the removal of protective plastic over the LCD, camera and motion detectors. It is not mentioned in the documentation. Otherwise the quality of those devices will be degraded by the blurry plastic protector.
