GAWKER G1083PDIR Dome CCTV Security Camera, 1080P HD-TVI/AHD/CVI and CVBS(Default) Video Out switchable, True Day&Night, IP66 Vandal Proof, 2.8-12mm Lens, IR Smart, DC12V/AC24V.

This is a great little camera. Good night vision, and very sharp, clear picture. I will order 4 more of these, for outside use.

Replaced one of my expensive 1080 cams with this cheaper one. Video quality is just ok. The zoom and focus controls are hidden under a removable plastic insert at the top of the cam lens. No instructions that show this. If you have a remote view on a smart phone, it's not that difficult to configure. What I don't like is the narrow field of view from the IR. They're bright, but only an eight foot wide field of coverage at 20 feet away. In all, you get what you pay for. Also, the video quality and IR is dependent on the wiring. I found that RG59 coax with the tandem power lead is a must. Too may reviews will down grade a cam because of the small cheap cables out there.

Easy to install and works great. Tried to focus it by myself, not a good idea. Grabbed a coworker and we had it focused and aimed in less than 5 minutes.

This camera is perfect for secure home

Awesome quality

I’m giving this camera four stars because the video quality is just so so. It does have a focus and zoom that you can manually tweak, but the video quality is not the best, but I do feel you get what you pay for. This camera housing is very durable and I feel like it’s high-quality, it’s better than most cameras at a much higher price. I haven’t looked at this camera at night yet so I can’t see what the night quality is with the IR’s.

I thought we would save some pennies and buy these from Amazon. After spending over eight hours trying to get them to work, we concluded something is wrong. We bought four of these units. One is noisy, one the contrast is way too high (classic horizontal saturation streaks), the rest are staying in the boxes. It advertises an external button to access the standard OSD menu so that these various video parameters can be adjusted. --No external button as advertised. And no internal miniature mouse switch either as would be expected in professional grade security cameras. Nothing in the instructions either. Called the vendor, and they don't have a clue either. --So I should have stuck with a professional security camera store. As it is I have >$1k in labor by trying to save pennies and several hundred in worthless hardware..

Good camera but, the focus knobs are hard to use.
