Camscura Tilt Hidden Camera Black Box Covert Home Surveillance and Nanny Camera By Brickhouse Security

I bought this unit to upgrade from the Zetta Z12. This one looks like the Zetta Z16, so I thought it would be a good cam. My Z12 was awesome except it is 640x480 and this Brickhouse is suppose to be 720 resolution. The vids are very grainy, and the unit is terrible in low light. I haven't tried it outside because I don't need it out there. Also, I don't like the wide angle lens. It makes everything appear far away. The software is great and easy to use, but wish the resolution was better

this took me 1/2 hour and it worked fine I am 71 years old so try it

A good piece of kit

After trying the camera for a few days it performs as advertised. Setting up the camera was very easy after downloading the software. The battery last for as long as advertised and maybe longer when using motion capture. The motion capture function works great and I like how it only records as long as there is motion. The tilt function on the camera adds a lot of versatility to the lens. And the ability to accommodate a 64gb sd card is a major advantage (compared to the typical 32gb that most of the other cameras on sale are limited to). Activating/deactivating the camera, accessing the files, and changing the settings was very simple. And it's compact size makes it highly unnoticeable. Overall the camera is good.Now for the bad. The lens does not do well in low lighting situations (at least for my purpose)(I'm not using NV to avoid black & white videos). I would've preferred a much more light sensitive camera similar to the corprit and pannovo cameras. When using those cameras objects would appear dark as well but when you brighten up the video (like when using the VLC media player) objects would easily come into view. The same cannot be said for the Brickhouse camera. The other disadvantage for me is the thickness. I would much prefer a thickness of 0.6" or less even if it meant an 8 hour battery life instead of 10. Those two disadvantages keep me from rating it 5 stars. Nonetheless they are subjective and may not apply to everyone.

Item as described, wasn't impressed or disappointed beyond the product description and answered questions. It does not have very good quality in low light, but reading the questions before purchasing, you'll already know this. The battery will last 10 hours in motion detect mode and record continuous for 2 hours. The software provided at the links listed in the owner manual are very easy to use, plug it into the computer, change your settings, watch your videos, delete, charge, and you're ready to go.
