This hidden camera is brilliant. We have other small cameras in the shop but this is unique as it actually serves as an additional outlet and usb charger as well as a very high quality camera, considering the size. This has been perfect for our reception/waiting area in the front of the shop. Thanks to this device, we have picked up some shoplifting issues that we had suspected and repositioned some of our items . It has a wide angle lens that covers the entire front lobby/waiting area which is great for security as wellas safety. Super easy to set up and no silly monthly plans needed. These "spy" type cameras are getting cheaper and cheaper yet the quality gets better. They have helped our bottom line throughout the shop in many ways. Great purchase and highly recommend this to any small business owners.

So far, so good. These things can be temperamental but after the first 24 hours prelim testing all is well. At 16 MP on default settings the pictures are crisp, have a quick capture speed and reflect the activity in our yard as promised. We are getting vivid color pics on daytime setting and very good black & white on nighttime setting. The camera takes a standard PNY 32 GB card as you would find in most stores, so there's no need for a card speed of 4 or 10 for the camera to work. Our gun security lock worked great with the two holes provided. no extra cabling is needed. There is a brief period of fog up on the lens at dusk as we are in fall with temps going from 50's to 30's overnight. We're very happy with this product so far. Will report back if we have any problems.

Built in cameras are famous for warping perspectives which can lead to feelings of body dysmorphia on Zoom calls. This camera provides a welcomed relief with beautiful wide angle lens, minimal warping and array of light settings. It's so simple to adjust to the vibe you're going for.It’s even great in low lighting but even better in natural light, there is barely any noise, unsightly shadows. It also performs well in smaller spaces making the room appear brighter and more spacious. You don’t have to install any software and can be screwed onto tripod with ease.It comes with a camera cover for privacy. My only criticism is the ugly royal blue cable it comes with. It’s quite the eye sore but easily replaceable. Also the menu setting can be a bit had to see on different video platforms

I wanted a baby monitor that did not broadcast over wifi. We've had this one for almost a year now and it's met all of our needs.*No issues with signal (in both condos and 2-level homes)*Good audio and video quality*Camera panning if baby rolls around in the crib (or eventually when they start walking around)Few things to call out, so you aren't surprised.*Haven't used the wide lens yet - can't offer any feedback on that*The camera 'clicks' when you turn on picture from the monitor - the sound hasn't woken our baby, but as a new parent any unexpected sounds are good to know about in advance*Corner mount was included, crib mount was better - crib mount uses a vice grip. corner mount required screws

Really impressed by this Drift camera. I wanted something inconspicuous to mount on my motorcycle helmet, and the Ghost XL fits the bill. The matt black finish and sleek profile mean that I don't know it's there, and it's not too obvious to everyone else. The rotatable lens means I can mount it anywhere on my helmet, then straighten up the shot afterwards. No issues riding through the rain, as all of the inputs and ports seem to be really well sealed.Image quality is very good, 1080p is all I need, and the files are a manageable size that I can edit without crashing my computer!The battery life is amazing, I actually get more than the claimed 9 hours. I'm not aware of another camera that comes close in this regard.Very impressed by this overall, and will be buying the remote control next.

This is one of those situations where it's hard to compare apples to apples. I don't know how far Amazon will let me take this, but while most cameras sell for less in the USA than in shops 500 feet from the factory they were made in, the EOS M3 is an exception. So I'll just say that at the current US prices, the Sony cameras are a better value (although the M3 does take better pictures than the RX100 series because the M3 has a full APS sensor.)Now, at the right price, the EOS M3 is outstanding. It does not have the dynamic range of the Sonys and it's a bit noiser in low light. But when it comes to capturing fine detail and not regretting that you left your SLR at home, the M3 is great. With the APS sensor, it's essentially a tiny APS SLR anyway.Two of the four lenses are outstanding. The 22mm f/2 is excellent and and the 11-22 f/4-5.6 is terrific and includes image stabilization. The 11-22 is the one lens in the system that's worth the money even at US prices. The 18-55 and 55-200 lenses are pretty good but probably not a justification for buying an EOS M camera.The focusing speed is much improved over the EOS M and M2 but still too slow for action. OTOH, I have yet to use a mirrorless camera that focuses anywhere near as fast as the cheapest SLR so if you want to shoot sports or race cars, mirrorless will make your life difficult, compared to just using an SLR.The M3 body is very solid and kind of heavy, to be honest. The only part that seems a little delicate is the fold-out-up screen. Unlike the original EOS M, the M3 has knobs or buttons for most things so if you've found the touch screen making it's own adjustments every time you grab the camera, this can now be avoided.Using non-EOS M lenses. Yes, you can use your Canon EF lenses with the beautifully made adapter than Canon sells. And they'll have full AF. Some people think this is great, but focusing is still slower than with the dedicated "M" lenses and honestly, the size/weight difference between most EF lenses and the EOS M body make this kind of a jury rig, in my opinion. There is however, a great alternative. Since the M3 has an excellent focus peaking display, you can use just about any lens that will fit on the camera ($10 adapters on eBay) and focus faster and just as accurately the old fashioned way, by hand.Lack of a viewfinder. The M3 is small camera. Sony found a way to pack a viewfinder into a camera that you first have to pop up to get access to. There's no good answer because (a) there's no place to put a viewfinder on the M3 except in the shoe and (b) good viewfinders are really expensive and the same people who insist on having one won't pay for it. Canon knows that adding an additional $200 to this camera is out of the question so there is an accessory electronic finder available. I got a kit overseas with all the pieces and I have to say while there is nothing wrong with the "EVF" I rarely use it. So maybe I didn't need a viewfinder after all, although I suppose Canon might make a super EOS M at some point, for people willing to pay Fuji prices.Other stuff. The built-in flash works and can be tilted a little. The output is small, but if the idea is to carry as little as possible at least you don't need to bring a separate flash to take photos of people at the dinner table. Selfie-screen and 2-axis level--nice. 18-55 lens--perfectly ok if you stop down but you do yourself a disservice to have just this one average lens. 55-200 lens--Quite good at 200mm; a little less so at 55. Still, it's small, image stabilized and light as a feather. Its not fast, which is why it's light as a feather; can't have it both ways. (55-200 has a plastic mount, no idea why they cut this corner. Shame on you, Canon!)I guess that's it. The video looks good to me. Not as good as my 5D3 but good for the occasional use I put it to. To summarize, on paper, the EOS M3 might not sound so spectacular. People who want the latest innovations, useful or not, will probably want to look elsewhere. Web sites and self-proclaimed "experts" thrive on the newest whiz-bang and there's not much of that here. But the ratio of camera size to image quality on the EOS M3 is really impressive and at the right price it's a very underrated camera.

This is the Best Bang for your Buck of any of the D-slr out there. The quality is great, and the build is also wonderful. Pair it with one of the fine L series lens, like the 17-40 F4 or the 24-105 IS and you have a true Picture taking machine!!! It is basicly a Mark 3 in Pro-Consumer clothes!!! Blows the pants of all the other brands out there and the image quality is almost the same as a 5D. The 14bit processing helps give a lot more Color detail and depth to the Photo. The Guy from Alaska about the Mark 3 was right about the wonderful colors, and the 40D has them as well. Puts the Nikon D200 to shame, at a fraction of the price! I got mine From Sal's Camera in La Verne CA since Amazon was on backorder and I am so glad I got it, it is by far the finest camera I have ever used!

I bought it for my Sony DSC-f828 and now use it with my DSC-R1. I love this flash. If you have a Sony DSC-F828 or DSC-R1 then this flash will work with your cameras through the lens metering system. The flash will also assist with low light auto focus by using the built in LED's beneath the main flash head.The flash mounts on hot shoe on the right side of the camera body providing a nice balance feel to the camera and more importantly; by the flash being offset from the center of the lens it eliminates that dreaded red eye you can get while using the built in flash.There is also an optional diffuser that pops down over the flash for wide angle shots. This lifts up and stores in a special slot above the flash head where it can't get lost but it's always there when you need it. The flash can be used in full "Auto" mode or you can manually adjust the settings. the features in this flash are usually found in units costing many $$$ more, and this Flash communicates with your camera to get that perfect shot every time.My only complaint with this flash is it does not use rechargeable batteries. I wish Sony had designed it to use the same battery as the camera (like they do with some models of video camera lights) This would be a great idea.This flash operates on four AA batteries. I have tried all brands I could find and my best results (ie: quickest recycle times) were with Energizer e2 series batteries. This is not meant to plug the batteries, just to save you time trying them all out yourself.Here's more from the Sony site: Get outstanding flash coverage of up to 32 feet with this Deluxe Sony High Grade Flash.
