I would also be interested in seeing some
actual Xcam images / video before I
purchase. The fact that there arent any
examples on this site worries me.
thanx

( Robert 7:45:23 ) Where can I go to see
actual x10 camera images on the web?
Referring
Page: /cameras/sc18a_s_3ckp_ps122.html (
GrEg 7:47:31 ) Give me a minute to find
your answer ( Robert 7:58:36 ) .......
( Robert 8:01:16 ) Greg, surely with 100's
thousands of units sold you  can give me an
online  example of the x10's images.
( Robert 8:04:12 ) r u still there?
( GrEg 8:05:23 ) Sorry do not have any
other pictures ( Robert 8:06:26 ) that
doesnt make much sense.  Dont you have any
cams in  your office? Or dont you  have
access to an image from  an x10 camera that
you can  email me?
( Robert 8:07:48 ) i am prepared to buy IF
I  can confirm that your  cameras images
will meet my  needs.
( Robert 8:15:02 ) well, I guess you dont
need  my money.

[rfinsel]

With all the units sold is there not ONE
person willing to share some actual x10
images??
?

I also would like to hear comments about
picture quality!

[Kenneth Herring]

The picture quality is decent within certain
parameters:
1. They need adequate lighting. Once the
light gets down to a certain level ('Sorry,
I can't tell you the lumens, or what-have-
you....) they cannot 'see'. For example,
they can't see twilight. Floodcams do
better, naturally, because they provide
their own light source.
2. Too much sunlight overloads the CMOS and
you see a lot of white.
3. You need a small, portable TV with a
battery-powered video receiver attached so
you can accurately adjust the focus. You TV
needs to have as high a resolution as
possible for best results.
4. The resolution on these cameras is only
so good anyway. They won't pick-up certain
details at a distance.
5. The clear plastic weather cap that covers
the lens hampers the focus, somewhat. you
can see a blurry ring around the edge of the
screen that indicates the edge of the
weather cap.

But they're cheap and mostly work.

Well the old post has been out there for a
while, and i did the same as RF did and
asked about a link to a live cam to check
out the view.... X-10 has nothing to view
and no still pictures, other than the ones
taken by I am sure a good DVC with the
actors in it.  They only sell them, so very
poor answers from them.   In closing, if
anyone of the MILLIONS who have bought an
x10 would like to share a pic or two of what
they see I would appreciate it.  My addr is
in the original post.  I appreciate it.  Dan

i have four wired cams hooked up to a mace
quad splitter which is hooked to my pioneer
dvr. so i'll record a little for you and
send it to you. when i get home later today.

[j]

one other thing is the images i send you
will not have audio because it is hooked up
to the mace and it is only video.

[d allen]

J-- thank you very much, i do appreciate
it.  Looking forward to seeing it.  Dan

[d allen]

whatever you send will be fine.  tyvm

[freshgentle]

Hey, wait!!!
Please do not forget me, I wish to see the same..  Im
interested in the picture quality as well and not sure which
would be better, wireless or wired?  I would also like to
know if the, "Control and see anywhere internet" picture
quality actually works.
I did by the home security system with dialer and it
works great. Now Im looking to upgrade cause I work alot
of night shifts as a nurse and no one is home...

Please will you let me know how good the quality is..
wired VS wireless, internet picture/video quality.

Thank you.

Freshgentle..

[randy]

[anonymous]
