Outdoor cameras
« on: May 04, 2007, 08:54:49 AM »
Shhh...it's a birthday present for my hubby!

We have a lot of wildlife that visits our yard and I know he'd love to have a couple of remote cameras out there on a motion sensor.

I have zero knowledge as to brands, quality, if night-vision is possible, etc.

Need something that will be easy to attach to trees or the house, weatherproof, and that will talk to our computer at a good distance. Two or three little cams in different places in the yard would be nice if the money's not too crazy.

I'm thinking the added security benefits would be nice as well.

I have one mounted outside on my patio, once the new pond is completed I plan on moving it over to that corner. I use an apple isight camera, and a program called imagecaster to upload the image to my iweb website. Let me know if you need anymore info

If I remember correctly is was around $140 at the apple store a couple of years ago, however I just checked and they no longer sell this camera, they have switched to a USB 2.0 logitech "quickcam" for $99.95.
