This system works for me. It is simple to use and very easy to install. So I would give it a 4 out of 5 stars. There are a few negatives that need to be mentioned though. The picture quality is not great. If people or objects move fast it will be almost blurred, but most objects and people are captured just fine. The night vision can't see well beyond about 20 feet, but within those 20 feet it does a great job even in no light at all. Overall I would recommend buying this if you only had a few hundred dollars and didn't want anything too complex to install. I do like the intercom feature, however, sometimes you can't hear what the other person is saying at the camera end. I have to push a few buttons to go to different menus to get the sound to work again (even though the volume is turned all the way up).Received this Monitor with two security cameras. It was very easy to set up. I've had it for three days and I love it! I have a long driveway and can see all the way to the end of it even at night. My front door does not have a peephole so I set up the second camera there. My porch looks like I have my porchlight on at night when I don't, the image is so bright and clear. The only two things I would have liked this system to have is longer range antennas (I had to buy one for the camera watching my drive) and batteries for the monitor so it could be portable.Clear in picture, record for couple days, or how you want it to record., You can record over, & over again, I like it !!!!!!Right out of the box the 7" monitor felt extremely lightweight. My son's DSi seems heavier. Hooking it up was very simple and no hassle. However when we turned on the monitor at just after sundown and pointed it at the driveway the image on the screen was so incredibly dark that nothing was descernible. All we could see was black on the bottom of the screen and lighter grey where the sky was. We could just barely make out the driveway as a barely lighter, dark grey line. We sent my son outside to walk down the driveway and there is no way we could have identified him at all. Our outside motion lights came on and then the picture was good and pretty clear for about 15 feet or so from the house. Even lit with the motion lights the farther he walked down the driveway the more indistinguishable he became until at the mailbox (about 60 feet away) he was nothing more than a small, grainy figure. You could not tell if he was a kid or a grown up, male or female. We tried adjusting the settings on the monitor for brightness/darkness but the picture barely changed at all, that was a joke. If you are looking for something to give you a good night picture in darkness this is NOT the camera system. Without the motion lights on there is no good picture, with the motion lights you get perhaps 15 feet at most. We were very disappointed and repacked the box to send back the same evening we received it.this thing Rocks it does it all,motion detection auto record,setup infrared works excellent in total darkness memory card sd type,got an infrared spotlight with it also,lights up the whole area.hardly any wires,got it pluged into the big screen.great setup!!!
