I am about to purchase the Genie ZB2812 IR camera. I wonder if there is somebody who has been using this product to tell me if he is happy with it's wide-angle capability (2.8mm lens) or not.

what's the difference between a 2.8 1/4'' and a 2.8 1/3'' lens? which is wider? any example?

I don;t need varifocality. Is it such a rare lens?

I need to cover an outdoor area with a 2.8mm standard (not varifocal) lens with night capability. Any suggestions?

what do you reccommend for a 2.8 outside IR camera, preferably with a fixed and not a varifocal lens?

I am about to purchase this standalone DVR and fix 9 cameras into it. Any pros and contras about this machine? Want to view videos in my iphone 4? How happy will I be in terms of picture quality? If we compare it itha Geovision sysem, how much do you lose ?

I still have unanswered questions concerning picture quality. Please reply.

rory, thanks for the prompt reply. Please let me know if the quality of the picure that I see in the 2 systems is really different and if the iphone support is OK for both systems. Which is the time delay? Is it pretty annoying or acceptable? Besides security reasons, my main concern is to have good live picture of the cameras (DSC 101 internal and GKB external cameras) for example when I am inside the house and somebody is approaching at the main entrance. Second, to have the best possible resolution in my iphone when I check these cameras remotely. Waiting eagerly for your reply

I have already put up 9 cameras to control the internal and external views of my house. I am considering a standalone DVR (AVTECH KPD 679Z). However I want to have easily access remotely (from iphone 4). Do you think that the above mentioned DVR will satisfy my needs in terms of picture quality and fast acquisition of pictures? Cpm[ared with a Geovision system, which will probably cost me 3 times more, which are the disadvantages?

I have the same proble. I have a feeling that the reason is that I downloaded rhe 8.3 from ezcctv website. I may need a crack for this vesion to work properly. Any suggestions?

is there a converter from composite to VGA, since I want to see the picture through a VGA cable to my monitor? Actually, is there a difference between composite and VGA cable in terms of quality?

I plan to install a GV 1480 card with 8.3 software. I need to watch 12 cameras and I want the best possible solution for the ideal live view. Can I connect the computer with a VGA or even a DVI cable running from the rack to my office where a 22'' monitor will be installed? Any other suggestions?

a few questions from a beginner at this field: a customer who has a small clinic in 2 different levels of the same building wants to set up a 12 cameras CCTV system. Main interest: live view of the various rooms of the clinic. How can we offer him this? Is there anything better than a GV-1120 or 1480 card? Any other suggestions?

I mean how do I ask for it?

any idea where can I find this flexible cable. How is the commercial name of it?
