Nice

Clear picture, easy set up, attached easily to my existing DVR.

This camera gives impressively good image clarity and night vision image brightness. Unfortunately, it causes incessant false-triggering of the DVR's motion detection while in night vision mode. I haven't been able to resolve this by any adjustment of the DVR's motion detection parameters (sensitivity, etc.). My guess is that the IR illumination is so intense that it causes an over-saturation of the image which in turn spoofs the DVR's motion-sensing algorithms. (It is especially frustrating that the DVR is the same brand as this camera, yet it causes motion-sensing issues while other brands of similar cameras used on the same DVR do not produce false triggers of the DVR's motion detection. Weird!) The other thing that I don't like about this camera's mount is - unfortunately - a common problem shared by many cameras: The mount's aiming adjustments are secured by set-screws, which often are difficult to access when the camera's housing is in the desired aiming position, making installation/adjustment more painful than it need be. Although this is a very common mounting/aiming "mechanism", it is much inferior to the universal ball-joint/locking ring "mechanism" that's available on some cameras - which does not have tiny set screws to be loosened/tightened individually (with the potential for them falling out and getting lost), and provides a quick and simple "point-and-lock" aiming adjustment - unlike this camera's mechanism that requires two separate axis adjustments plus a tilt adjustment - which are time-consuming, fiddly, and risk the loss of adjustment tools and/or set-screws. So, unfortunately, this otherwise very nice camera is hampered by an archaic aiming mechanism.

works well
