ak357 0 Posted April 20, 2009 Looking for advise on an IP (wired) cam with decent resolution and frame rate. Must have IR (or easy to add-on). thx for the help I Have Plug and Play IP camera with IR IP Network Camera is designed with the "user-friendly" idea deep in mind. The user can install the IP Camera easily on his/her home network and then access the IP Camera anywhere in the world through the accompanied video management software- without setting some complicated DNS name or changing the router's settings. It's just a plug & play action. sent me PM if u interested Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Livin 0 Posted April 20, 2009 Looks like the Speco InPro line has 6 cameras. If you have one that matches something I'm looking (per my first post), then great, please post the specs. If you have a web link or PDF, even better. If you don't want to post here then email me at Livin One @ gmail dot com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
griffonsystems 0 Posted April 21, 2009 just get the one from babysrus, youre going to want the audio and it has a button where you can kill the video but still hear the audio and then hit the button to see the video again when the rugrat makes a strange noise i thought for a second about making my own with a cheap ip wireless cam, etc but then my mother in law bought us the one from babysrus, and its worked fine good luck and enjoy your new or existing nugget Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many IP cams have 2 way audio so that will work just fine and I'm sure I can kill the video if I wanted to - turn off screen or minimize window Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
griffonsystems 0 Posted April 21, 2009 ah ok internet changes things, a lot of the cheap ip cams have really bad night ability, what was ur budget? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Livin 0 Posted April 21, 2009 ah ok internet changes things, a lot of the cheap ip cams have really bad night ability, what was ur budget? Plus most web cams have crappy video unless it is 12" from your face. This will be 8-10' away. I want the far off family to be able to see the baby using IE or firefox. I'd like to stick to <=$300 if I can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to stick to <=$300 if I can. I'm soon going to have the need for a baby cam as well and was thinking about the Axis M1031-W. I'm not sure of the cost, but it's got 2 way audio, WiFi and illumination. The WiFi feature would allow for the camera to be moved around as required - that would be handy. I only wonder if the light would be too bright? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Livin 0 Posted April 21, 2009 Looks like the M1031-W has illumination -- is this the same as IR LEDs for night vision? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thewireguys 3 Posted April 21, 2009 I Axis M1031-W is a great camera. The cost is $279 and it has a very bright white LED. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Livin 0 Posted April 21, 2009 I Axis M1031-W is a great camera. The cost is $279 and it has a very bright white LED. I want night vision, not to light the room... it would wake the baby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Livin 0 Posted April 26, 2009 Ebay looks to have many reasonably priced (under $200 shipped) options. Anyone have experience with any of these...

cctv_down_under 0 Posted April 27, 2009 I know the human eye can not see the entire range of IR light, however can anyone confirm that this is truly safe, is it at all possible that this spectrum could cause a human Iris to stay open when staring directly at a camera in turn causing muscle damage to the eye. I would certainly check this out first Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zmxtech 0 Posted April 27, 2009 yes its not a good idea to blast a baby with cheap IR from ebay ! better off with a good low light camera and a small light the AXIS LED will be to harsh also Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sawbones 0 Posted April 27, 2009 Bounce an IR source off the ceiling. It will diffuse the light and won't have any ill effect of the baby. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Livin 0 Posted April 27, 2009 I highly doubt that an IR source 10 feet up and away from the baby will harm it. I'll do some research but it seems very unlikely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scorpion 0 Posted April 27, 2009 Ask Rory! He says that he his eyes have been affected by looking at IR over a period of years. He says he will never stare at them again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zmxtech 0 Posted May 1, 2009 10 feet away will be ok but the indirect bonce sounds like a good idea... or just wrap the baby in tin foil and wear a welding mask ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squelch 0 Posted June 24, 2009 FYI to all the parents that are interested in mounting a camera in a baby's room but are afraid to use IR. I just installed a CNB D2965NVD in our nursery and I am extremely pleased with the results. The picture is clear in extremely low light (nightlight or just having the door ajar) and there is no need for possibly hazardous IR illuminators. Min. Illumination: Day - 0.3Lux / Night - 0.0005Lux. The only con to this camera is I wish it had a wider angle, 4mm works for viewing the crib but a 2.6mm would get the whole room. Great camera for a great price! Hope this helps!!
