tds1 0 Posted January 22, 2012 I am considering the Vivotek FD8161 for indoor use (home). I like the built in PIR, IR illumination, 2 MP capability, and adjustible lens. However, if I am reading the specs correctly, the width is 155 mm - which seems very large for a home. Anyone used these in a house - seems like they are bigger than other cameras - how did they look? Any similar spec cameras that are smaller? I was originally thinking of the FD8134 since 1 MP would be fine, but the built in PIR seems like it would be pretty nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alpine0000 0 Posted January 22, 2012 (edited) I use one in my house. They are a tad bit larger than typical 'indoor' cameras, but in my opinion thats not what makes it look bad. It's the color, if you ask me. I prefer white to gray. But its not *that* bad. I think you can't beat it for the money. That said, I have mine in my basement. I would *not* put that camera in my living room, because it looks too intrusive and stands out too much with the gray color.

The Supreme Range model is white though, but more expensive due to the eWDR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
