Hi there, I am new to this forum. I was wondering if anyone has a sample picture or video as taken by the KT&C KPC-N600H camera. I am considering buying one, and was just curious as to the quality of the image that it creates. For my installation, I am looking for a somewhat discrete camera for the front of my home to monitor the driveway and front door (in day and night). So some of the requirements that I would like it to meet are: -Color during the day -Good low light ability -Weather resistant -Discrete -Price <= $250 If anyone has a better suggestion than the KT&C KPC-N600H in a similar price range, let me know. Thanks. -Andrew

I use Motion (search on Google for "Motion Web Home", this forum won't let me post links yet). It is free and open source software. I don't have an IP cam, but it does work with most cameras that can provide a JPEG image or MJPEG video stream.

Attached are some pics from my camera. I am pretty happy with the camera. The color during the day isn't great, but it works, and the IR beam at night is a bit narrow, but other than that it is a great camera for the money I think. I'm also giving it a bit of a cold weather test recently with our temps here dipping to -10F . I've now ordered the KT&C WDR dome camera and can let you know how that is too. -Andrew

Yes, this has 520 lines of resolution (in black and white I assume). I had no idea that these LEDs produced visible light. Thanks for the tip. Do all infrared LEDs produce visible light like this model?
