LEVEL ONE 5 megapixel WCS-6050 Day / Night Wireless (Accessories)

Customer Review

Well - also LevelOne can not override the physics.

5 million pixels in at about the same small sensor as a 1 Mpixel camera means that each pixel only one-fifth as large and only one-fifth receives as much light. Even during the day the sun should appear or fluorescent lamps in the room, so the picture is really sharp and you really can use the 5 Npix. And the picture is really good too.

But in the dim room or even in the dark you have so much Grisseln and noise in the image, that the 5 Mpix for the A **** are. Since the IR LEDs for illumination help nothing. "Up to 10m range" are greatly exaggerated, with me was almost nothing to be seen even at 4 meters. For comparison, I had the Edimax 7110W and Instar IN-6012HD, both only 1Mpix, and both deliver in the dark much better pictures and have really 7m reach, tried by myself.

I wanted to use the cam as Babycam, and wanted 5Mpix to watch in the dark, not only as the other cams that the child moves, but what it does exactly. Nope. One sees on equal Bedingungn less than in the other - and the only cost half. I had, of course, believed by twice the price was a better, more sensitive sensor technology installed. Does not seem like that.

Positive: good workmanship, very good audio. much Konfigurieroptionen in software, good GUI

But useless for my purposes. Since advertising has something very exaggerated. Therefore, only 1 star. The Cam goes back to Amazon.
