good camera
April 17, 2015
ive had two of these cameras and the first one lasted only two years before it stopped working so i purchase a second one and hope it last longer if they offer extend warranty just buy just in case but overall it has nice bright color during the day and at night its black and white but i still looks clear, after i purchased the second one i found them for $13 cheaper at tigerdirect
still a working camera
February 2, 2014
I mounted it on the rear trailer doors of a 53 foot semi trailer and its holding up nicely in such a harsh environment. The camera has about 100K miles and still looks good though could use a longer sun visor and I had to caulk it for a tight seal. I had to get rid of a wired camera it was illegal and took time to setup. Now just carry the 12v battery & camera to the rear & done in a minute or two. I did use the optional antenna for better reception.
Well worth the money.

If you have a great deal of experience with hardwired and wireless security cameras then my review is not for you. If you are new and have some questions, perhaps this will help. MY APPLICATION: I already have a Zmodo security system in place, with option to add an additional four cameras. I have four already installed and they work flawlessly. I have a motor home that is parked about 75 feet from the house and one side is not visible from the house. Since I already have a 120v outlet live in the motor home, installation of this camera took five minutes completely. Three of that was getting in and out of the motor home. I set the camera down in one end and it has an extremely clear view of the length of the motor coach. No adjustments of any kind were required. Plug and play. Of course the camera transmits wireless data, in packets, so the view is not going to be smooth as silk 'normal motion' but a kind of clip frame thing. That is perfectly normal with a wireless camera. Colors are quite good and clarity is good enough to make out the face of someone in the field of view. You do need a live 120v plug fairly close to where you set up the camera. If wireless cameras of any quality ran on batteries you would be changing batteries every two days. For the cost this is a very good product that does the job quite nicely.
Great for what you get!

Got this for my parents and so far it works great. I put it outside to monitor our porch, drilled a hole through the wall to get the camera wire through, and then connected the power supply to it. I plugged the receiver in the next room on our HD TV and it works great. I get full bars (full signal) even though the camera is two walls away; about 8 meters in distance. Given, the walls here are mainly dry wall, so your signal might be different based on material and distance. Plus the price is pretty good for a wireless camera. All in all (for me) 5/5 stars.

Mixed bag of good and bad experinece....I just need support!--Update is Vimtag has good support. Don't try to work with Fujikam!
November 23, 2015
Update Feb 7, 2016
I now have 3 cameras!
There are so many different reviews about this product and many are not accurate or updated.
If you want tech support go to the Vimtag website and NOT fujikam. Vimtag is located in NY state and their support is really good. At least that has been my experience so far.

The quality of the camera/s for the price is beyond what you pay! We have one camera mounted on a wall up as high as possible so no one can touch it. The "reverse" image works perfectly. I can pan the camera in any direction which is a god send if I need to see if my father is on the floor somewhere.

The picture quality is really good for the price of the camera. Not perfect all the time but for my purposes I can tell who is there and what is going on. The color is true. The night vision is strange but it works!

The app might be the issue for me. I have an iPad and iPhone. I find the iPad is much more reliable most of the time. The iPhone is too small to clearly see but good enough. The iPad is so much better for details and it seems to load faster.

I use the motion detection all the time to see if and when aids, nurses and possible unwanted people come and go from my dad's apartment when he is asleep. There is usually, but now always, a still and a 15 sec (more or less) video clip. The issue for me is there are times that motion is missed or not recorded. the still is not always of the person but the video often shows who it was that came and went.

Often there are phantom stills of things from months ago. many of the stills are blank.
My feeling is that the app needs updating? I am going to bring this up with tech support.

I do recommend this camera. but it has had its challenges

(This review began with 2 stars. I changed it to 1 star and now give it 4 stars. It has been a long journey but please read or skip down to the November 26, 2015 update. The company is now Vimtag. They have great tech support and their tech people return phone calls and responded to my email via phone as well and on Thanksgiving day to boot! I am much happier. See below for information that they gave me to help with some issues with this camera.)

I have a very mixed review and experience. I purchased one camera (from Amazon) at first but now have 2 (both from amazon).

I have a 94 year old father that lives in assisted living. He has been there for 4 years now and the things that have happened will curl your toes and hair! He is a fall risk and has alzhimer's. He uses a walker in his apartment. Part of the reason that I wanted a camera was to see if he was safe at night when his private aids were off and to see if the facility staff were doing their checks that we pay a hefty fee for. In the 3 nights that I have used the camera I have learned that the staff is only checking him one time over night. Not good for someone that is on oxygen and is a fall risk! So the camera has been a great help.

My current experience with the cameras... I tested the first camera at my home and everything worked well. Setting up with my father's internet/wifi was not a good experience. It took 3 different days of attempting to get the wifi to work/connect. I am not using the facilities wifi. I am paying for a high quality private system. Finally that is working and working very well. Well at first it was. It is now very intermittent. I believe it is the software.

I set up the motion alert for both cameras. There is a still photo that shows up but... there is a delay evidently and half of the pix do not show who was there. In other words...there is motion but by the time the camera records the still the person is gone. Well what good is that? That does not help me at all! Also a large number of still photos are blank. I have been in the rooms with the cameras and one can clearly hear the camera clicking away taking the stills but when I look online or via cell Phone or tablet there is no human to be seen. Sometimes there is a blur of a hand. I am so disappointed as well as upset.

I have a question. Is there any way to turn off the clicking sound that happens whenever the camera detects motion and takes a still? I really don't want the people that are caring for dad to know this is happening and it is also very distracting. There must be some way to turn it off, the same way one can turn off the shutter sound in a cell phone. This is a digital devise so there should be no moving shutter parts right?

The good points...
The picture quality is really quite good. There are choices for quality in the setup area.
I have tried to get a hold of customer service or tech support but so far no success. Maybe someone else has had better success.
I'm sticking with this system for now, hoping I can find assistance. If not then for someone that needs reliable alerts and still photos this is not a good match.

I would use the record function if it went to the cloud but it does not. :-( The recording quality is good actually but to have to remove the card every time one wants to save a recording is not going to work for me. It would be fantastic if the camera/s are in your own home. Easy. But not for someone that lives away from the location with the cams as I do.

If this was in my own home I would give it all 5 stars I think.

For the money it is a good quality system/camera.

Bad news is...if someone unplugs the camera it resets and you loose anything stored that was not recorded on the internal card.
Oh and another thing... if you have lots of movement the still pix from motion detection only stays in the "record" section for about 2 hours or less. Then they are erased! I find myself checking the darn feed way to often so I can save to my phone or computer the photo/pix with the time stamp and date.

--------
I just changed my rating to 1 star. I can not begin to share how upset and frustrated I am.
Last night, when I need the camera the most so I can know if anyone is checking on my 95 year old father, the camera in the bedroom area went dead. I thought that someone might have unplugged it but NO. The app and website just was black. Nothing on my cell phone app. I went to the website via my computer and the camera was working! I had to shut down my phone can start it again. Then magically the live feed was back.

Before this all happened the camera was clicking and buzzing away every second. Then the camera died. It was crazy!

Now I can't even log into the website. I have also been logged out of the app and when I try to log back in it does not accept my user name and password!!!! This is horrible!!!

FYI - the company is now VIMTAG. It is located in New York.

November 26, 2015 update
New experience and so much better. Now give it 4 stars but the jury is still out!

Evidently the app and web sites for the cameras were down last night for updating. I asked if there was a way for them to notify customers. There was a huge silent pause and then i was told they would try to have an announcement via the app in the future. What?

The right website to go to is VIMTAG.US that might be [...]
You can find customer support on the home page as well as a tab for products. Both the contact 800 number and the email will get you a real person. Today I talked to 2 of the 4 tech support people.

The first tech person that I talked to was able to answer most of my questions and issues. One that he did not know the answer to he referred to the senior tech person who called me back at a time we agreed to. Who knew??

In case you are having some of the same issues here is what I was told:

I was told to make sure the camera/s is on 50hz for america use.

To turn off the clicking that can be heard in the camera every time motion is detected you need to make sure I/O is turned off. I/O alarm. If you have it turned on there will be an audible sound similar to a shutter click. Trust me if you don't want anyone to notice the camera you need this turned off! You can get to it via your app or on the website where you view the camera/s feed.

I was told to change the night time sensitivity to "50" for the motion detection notification and to "37" for day time.

I did not get an explanation for why many or several of the stills show a gray icon with the word CAMERA in it. When I click on it the display is black. I have a time stamp and date to indicate there is/was motion but no was of knowing who/what it was.

I was also told to change the length of the alert still to 6 from the default of 3. I don't quite understand but will be testing this over night tonight.

Don't give up if you have this camera. DO call the Vimtag tech support.

I really love this camera and to look at a room anytime on my phone. Will get more sometime to cover other rooms.
Great Wireless Security Camera!
June 4, 2015
The Fujikam model 361 is a great wireless security camera with reliable web software with a lot of features that you might want or expect in a security camera. Some of these include:
• Remote Live Video Streaming Via Smart Phone, Tablet, PC
• Remote Pan and Tilt, Motion Detection Alert
• Video Recording To SD Card, Digital Zoom
• Real Plug And play 5 Minute Setup, Night Vision,
• 2 Way Voice, HD 1280 X 720 Clear Image Quality
There are no extra fees for cloud service and everything resides on a mini 32 GB SD card which must be purchased separately. It works very well and it is remarkably easy to set up. The setup instructions are good and I had no problems during setup and installation. I had it working within 15 minutes after taking it out of the box. The picture is good, the remote rotation (side-to-side and up-and-down) works and the sound quality is good. The camera comes with a mounting kit so that you can put it up wherever you need it. It is a really nice camera for a very reasonable price and I am going to buy some more of them. Note: This camera is primarily for indoor use although it will work if placed outside. However, it will not be able to withstand bad weather. An outdoor version that is designed to withstand bad weather will be released sometime in the future.
The product customer service is great! I contacted them with a question about the infrared feature and the customer service agent answered without a long wait. He was very patient and helpful in explaining the camera features and software settings.
The Fujikam model 361 is an excellent camera, its customer service is great and I would highly recommend this camera.
Setup was very easy, requiring only a brief direct LAN hookup to ...
May 11, 2015
I travel for a living and have always been concerned about leaving my house empty for days at a time without knowing what's going on while I'm away. So recently, I began comparing and reviewing about 10 different surveillance camera options, most of which required a DVR with wired cameras. I settled on this camera because it was both wireless and did not require a DVR, because of the reviews it received, and because its price point was hard to beat.

Setup was very easy, requiring only a brief direct LAN hookup to my DSL router to establish the connection to the camera. Then you simply download the app on your smartphone, create an account, scan the QR code at the base of the camera, and voila, you're connected! You can now remove the Ethernet cable and place the camera anywhere you like, as long as it's in wireless range of your router.

Most of the setup was straightforward, though the online documentation could provide better descriptions of the features and menu options. For instance, if you just want the camera to record only when it detects motion (which is what I bought it for), you have to disable the "schedule recording" option altogether (I had it set on the "24/7" option thinking it would always be ready to record but not actually record until it detected movement--I was wrong).

Also, the camera requires an SD card (not included) to save the videos it records. It mentions using an SD card in the documentation, and there is a menu option for it as well, but for the first two days I was under the impression that it was referring to the SD drive on my laptop and that the videos would be saved to the SD card I inserted into the laptop. As it turns out, the camera itself has a Micro SD slot to store its own videos, and that's what the instructions are referencing. NOTE: Be sure to get a "micro" SD card (smart phone size), not the standard size SD card that you might use on your laptop. You can pick these up at Best Buy (about $15 for a 32GB Samsung card).

You can control the camera via your smartphone or your desktop/laptop. One great feature is the ability to control the camera's direction remotely. You can set the camera to a live shot, and pan it up, down, and side to side for a nearly 360 degree viewing radius.

I actually purchased two of these cameras and set them up in different locations of my house, and I can control both of them through the same GUI and account. Although you can only actually see one camera view at a time, you can switch between cameras very easily and very quickly (all cameras are in a list and you just click the one you want to view). I will very likely add a few more to my collection very soon (I believe you can have up to eight on the same account, but you'll want to check that).

All in all, this is a great little surveillance system for a great price.
Works great! Here's some tips...
February 8, 2015
Great security camera for my little apartment! Just a couple of things to note: The camera must be connected to your router ONLY for the duration of the setup. The little light below the "router" symbol on the camera should flash green three times if it is connected properly. The little light below the "wifi" symbol will flash red, because you haven't set up the wifi yet. Follow the instruction card in order to set up your camera account and hook it up to your wifi. After everything is set up, the light under the "wifi" symbol should be flashing green. It is now ok to unplug your camera from the router and set it up wherever in your home! Unplugging the power supply to move my camera from one spot to another did not ruin anything. To set up the camera's options, open the MIPC app and press and hold the screenshot image from the "Camera List" screen. A menu with Settings, Records, and Delete will pop up. Click Settings to tinker with the options. My favorite way to use the camera is to go to Settings>Alarm Action and toggle the Turn Alarm On button whenever I leave the apartment. That way, the alarm is activated whenever I am gone. When I come back home, I toggle the alert off. Simple. I have set off the alarm a couple of times by accident. It doesn't call the police or anything, but you get a snapshot and a recording of whatever the camera is looking at. If somebody broke in a stole the camera, you'd still have these things available on the app. I had to adjust the motion sensitivity a few times, but everything works great!

OK for day use, but IR comes on too soon.
April 18, 2015
The camera is a digital, wireless type. As such, it uses a pairing protocol to connect the receiver, and camera. It's actually easy to do. Just press, and hold the pair button on the receiver for a few seconds, and you'll see a message on screen, telling you to press the pair button on the camera. You'll have 30 seconds to do that.You do need to keep in mind, that when you move the camera, you may need to repeat the pairing procedure, as the signal may drop during camera repositioning. No big deal.During the day, the quality is quite good, albeit 640 by 480, and with a choppy frame rate of about 5, or 6 frames / second. If you switch to 320 by 240, the frame rate improves, but the resolution drops.The low resolution means the camera works best for viewing a carport, or yard, but if you need to view something a block away, it's not going to look very good. You'll want to look for a zoom capable version of the camera for distance viewing.The only big pain comes in the late afternoon, when the IR system switches on. It does so about a couple of hours sooner than it really needs to, and could stand to shut of about a couple of hours earlier in the morning, since the colour sensor is actually good enough to provide meaningful visual information in twilight conditions, the IR is not needed. I wish there was a way to adjust when the IR system switches on/off. IR becomes problematic when you're shooting through glass. You won't see much beyond the frame of the window in IR mode, unless you mount the camera outside, and even then, you're only good for about 25, to 50 feet of distance from the camera at night.Also, when in IR mode, the camera switches to black, and white.I noticed the camera actually has two threaded holes. One in the bottom rear of the body, and one at the back of the antenna mount.While the camera is touted as water proof (rain), I'm a bit concerned some water could possible enter the camera body via one of these holes, so you might want to drop a dab of hot melt glue, caulk, or rubber cement into one of the remaining holes to be safe if mounting outside.I was relieved to notice a BNC to RCA male adaptor was included with the kit, so connecting to the monitor was easy. However, if your monitor is one of the cheap LCD screens that uses the mini plug, you'll need to get either, a BNC to 8th" mini adaptor, or RCA female to 8th" mini adaptor for video.The camera does not have a microphone.I have noticed that things that are in direct sunlight, and off in the distance tend to get a bit blown out, but stuff closer to the camera looks fine.The included mounting hardware was easy to work with, but I kind of wish the mounting joint was a bit more robust.I use over-the-air television from an attic antenna, and there does not seem to be any interference from the camera. It's on 2.4 Ghz transmission.

July 1, 2014
Canera works very well but doesn't fit in with my current wireless system. It causes interference with other receivers. It doesn't have a dip switch to change the frequencies as my other caneras have; it has a switch to "pair" the camera and receiver but I can't isolate what frequency it is using. I may have to return it but first I am trying a few other ideas.
Great Quality at a good price
May 12, 2014
I have 8 of these cameras and the DVR from this same company. They work pretty good. The video quality is good. The night vision is great. The only issue I have is that they do tend to lose the signal every few days, even the ones close to the base station. So I normally have to re-set the whole system once or twice a week. I don't know why that happens. Have had the system for about 2 years. For the price, you really can't beat it, but be aware that they do have some transmission issues at times. But overall, I would recommend this product.
An inexpensive wireless security solution...but with quirks...not 'twerks'.
November 29, 2013
I bought one of these from Amazon in August and one later from another company. The prices were comparable at time of purchase. It/they were both very easy set up with good color and picture quality. This one I had mounted looking out through a window w/ a screen on it with the camera actually against the glass. It worked well until it was in the late afternoon shadows at which time all that was viewable was a b&w reflection off the glass and the screen, although there was still plenty of daylight. I thought it a bit odd but considered the close glass and screen situation. I have since mounted it in a well artificially lit area of my basement studio. Unless light is shining almost directly into the lens, there is no color. B & W pic and reception is good, but w/o the color, I can't clearly define what is going on. The one I bought 2 months later is mounted in the garage and still gives a good color picture. Regarding any sort of service issues, For what it is worth, I have always found it better to deal with Amazon FIRST before having _any_ connect with the manufacturer. Btw, I intend to buy another when on sale.
Nice camera
August 30, 2013
Seems like a nice deal, I'm not a total high tech security needs type a guy so I'm not an expert at all. All I had to do was open the box, grab my screw gun and ladder, put the camera up in the corner of my house, plug it in, plug the little antenna into a yellow plug in the back of my tv, plug it in, turn the tv on and switch it to the yellow plug to show on the screen, BAM... full color pic of my car in the drive way and a very clear shot for about 100 yards or 300 feet clear enough to see some one walking at 300 feet and clear enough to make out a face up to 45 50 feet. At night the light works very very well to see every thing very clear for about 50 feet maybe more but it fade quick past that. It's under my eve so it stays dry but seems to work fine in the rain and wind no fogging no problems. Like I said, is a great camera for what I use it for.
Works fine but don't breath on it!
November 28, 2011
This camera works fine. I have it in my barn, which is about 200 ft as the crow flies from the TV, which is in the center of the house. I moved the receiver around a bit and the reception is fine. I think that if the TV were any deeper into the house (if there were more house between the camera and the receiver), there would probably be a reception issue. The reason I gave this 4 stars is because, although it does EXACTLY what I bought it to do, I have never seen a more brittle electronic product. If you aren't paying close attention to what you're doing and just grab one of the antennas to tip it up into place, it will break off in your hand. No kidding--very, very brittle. And this is an indoor/outdoor camera! If I were to buy another one, I'd also make sure it was one that has a microphone built in. But this product does do the job and was the right price for me.

Nightvision does not work through glass
August 3, 2017
I ordered this for use inside my home, but looking outside to my front porch as I don't have the greatest wifi signal. The picture is clear, the app is very handy and works better than the desktop program. I had no issues setting it up to my network. I like that I can change the camera direction from the app, talk to someone in the room, etc. What I really don't like about it is that the nightvision is useless if you're looking through a window. At first I had it on my windowsill (the base is quite large) but at night the image was only of the windowscreen. So I used a 3M Command Strip to secure it to the top of the window sash b/c the base is large as a temporary fix. But that did not help as the glare from the window creates a mirror effect so all you see is the camera. The "fix" seems to be to have a porch light on. While that does work, I'm not interested in changing out my vintage porch light to an automatic light or leaving the light on at all times. Other options would be to mount it outside, but it has to be plugged in to an outlet to work.
More camera than I expected for the price
March 4, 2017
We have a new pup and she has a knack for getting into trouble. I wanted a surveillance camera I could use to help keep an eye on Maisie Grace. I also thought it would be cool to be able to check on the girls. Finally, I thought this would be something I could use when Maisie grows out of her puppy phase as an outdoor camera.

This was a good call.

The price is very reasonable, the process to synch to my network was simple, and installation was simple. You do need to connect the unit to your LAN for the initial setup but after that, it's a pretty straightforward process - I think I was watching from the camera in less than fifteen minutes.

The app is pretty robust and runs like a charm on my Pixel phone. You can also log on to vimtag's site and access your camera - or cameras (the app supports multiple cameras) from any browser. You can run it in a motion detector mode, an alarm mode, or set up schedules to record. A piece of advice - make sure you get a MICRO SD card - the camera needs this to save video. You can control tilt, pan, and zoom from the app and activate the microphone by touching the screen. All in all, it is a pretty reliable and simple app. The Auto mode works pretty well, but you can adjust the color and contrast settings as well as HD or standard definition. The camera boasts a night vision mode as well.

Vimtag's paper and online documentation are not the best, but there are several reviewers who have done a great job of walking you through the procedures if you have any problems.

At some seventy bucks are you getting top quality? Nope. But to be absolutely candid, I worked in Loss Prevention for some years and have worked with cameras not a lot better than these - that likely cost the company more. You definitely get a good deal for the dollar.
A good investment for your home or business's security and peace of mind
May 24, 2016
I purchased this cloud box because we already have 2 Fujikam cameras in our home, and not only did we want to save more video footage per camera (they are limited to the SD card that is stored in each camera otherwise), but we also wanted to save that footage to something other than the cameras themselves, in case of a burglary, etc. Before this cloud box came out, if your Fujikam camera is stolen, you lose all your videos and photos--which defeats the purpose of a video camera in the first place, in my opinion (unless you're wanting it for live view only). Since we purchased the Fujikam cameras about 9 months ago or so, the name of the company has changed from Fujikam to Vimtag (I guess Vimtag must have purchased the company?). I would never have known this if I hadn't called the 800 number with a question about the cameras when I was setting them up. That being said--their customer service is wonderful. They are extremely helpful and patient. The only drawback is that they're open from 8:30-4:30 EST Monday-Thursday, half a day on Friday, and a partial day on Sunday, so if you need to talk to them for technical assistance, make sure you plan accordingly for not only the day of the week, but also your time zone. This must mean the MIPC (Fujikam) app that I had previously downloaded for the cameras must be obsolete, although it appears it's still working. There's also a Vimtag app, though, which seems both easier to use and user friendly-it tells you this in the installation pamphlet), so at this point--I still have both apps on my iPhone and iPad and go back and forth between them to look at the cameras and cloud box videos. You can also view the cameras for live view and the footage from the cloud box over the Internet on a computer, which is a bonus.

The reason I called their customer service/technical assistance department in the first place regarding this cloud box was because I thought it had wifi capability (looking back over the Amazon description now, I see wifi is not mentioned, so that was my mistake). When I talked to them several months ago about my camera question, I also mentioned that I would really like to have cloud capability in case the cameras were stolen, as I would have no video footage of the thief. That person told me they were coming out with this cloud box and to keep an eye out for it; however, I could never find it for sale on the Vimtag website, and I looked weekly for a long time. I finally did a Google search for it, which led me to this Amazon seller. I was under the impression from the rep I spoke with that the cloud box would have wifi so you could hide it somewhere in your house, away from the cameras, router, etc, which really appealed to me. When I set it up, though, I could only get it to work via Ethernet. That brings me to another point: one of the main sellling features of this cloud box on the product description says you can "hide it in a closet." Well, you can't do that unless your router is next to a closet and you have a power outlet next to it as well. This box has to be connected to your router and electrical power--so a person robbing your house is probably going to notice that it's next to your router, since most are left out in plain view. I don't see how it would be feasible to hide this box in a closet in its current configuration. I finally called Vimtag tech support after much frustration and gnashing of teeth, and a very nice man told me that they are working on making this device wifi capable and to give it a few weeks, because a software update would be available that will allow wifi connection. That was approximately May 19, 2016, so I'm (im)patiently waiting. My intention is to hide this box somewhere in my house where it won't be found easily once that occurs.

This cloud storage device was fairly easy to set up, but I'm also a techie person and know computers and gadgets pretty well for the most part (I still think most people would have no issues with it, though). You can either activate it from the Vimtag app or go to Vimtag.com and add it from there (you have to set up an account with a username and password first). If you already have their cameras, then you will need to "add" a new device first, though, before you can do anything else, which I don't think was the very clear in the instructions. To make things even easier, as it steps you through the process--there's a scan tag on the device that you can scan with your iPhone (not sure about android) to easily add it to your list of devices on your Vimtag account (or you can input the device code on the bottom of the unit manually) and give it a name (I used "cloud box").

Once you've added the cloud box to your account, then you click on each camera that you want to hook up to the box, choose each camera separately--one at a time--and select the storage device for that camera to be the cloud box (if you were previously using an SD card). Playback of the videos is pretty smooth and easy to figure out. I'm not sure I'm getting 60 days worth of video storage yet. It looks like the 2 cameras I have store up to about 3-4 days worth of videos, but I have my cameras set to record 30 minutes of video footage at a time once motion is detected, and they're both set up in busy areas, so there's a lot of footage for a 24 hour period. I'm not complaining about that, though, because that's a lot more than I had with the SD card, I just don't know if that equates to the 1 TB of storage this device is supposed to have, although I know videos can be notorious space hoggers.

As I mentioned, the installation guide that came with the box is pretty straightforward. I didn't have too many issues setting it up, other than the frustration of not having wifi when I thought it did, but I was able to get that figured out after a call to tech support. So far I'm really happy with its performance. The video and/or photo footage for each camera is easy to locate and plays back nicely on a phone or tablet, or a computer after you install their video plugin. One aspect I really like about the whole setup process is that you don't have to do it all via a computer like you do several other different brands of video cameras I've used in the past. Everything you need to set up this box is available using the Vimtag app. If you check the system settings on your cameras and cloud box occasionally, you will see a red tick mark next to the software update selection, which lets you know that a new update is available for that device, which is really convenient. You can update it right from the app and then it will restart that device with the new software features. I've had a number of software updates on my cameras already, adding new features and such, and it's been a breeze so far. No problems (knock on wood).

My biggest complaint I have about this box is the SMELL. It comes right out of the box with a strong chemical odor, and once you plug it in and get it running--it circulates throughout the whole room via the fan inside the cloud box. It literally made me nauseous. I had to try not to breathe in too much while I was messing around with it, trying to get the wifi to work. I've had it about 3 weeks so far and the smell has dissapated a little bit, but the whole room still smells like it. If you're sensitive to that kind of thing, you might want to watch out for that. Other than that and the wifi capability, which I hope will be resolved soon, this is really has been an excellent investment for our home, safety and security (the cameras are also excellent if you get a chance to try them). I don't think you can beat the entire package as far as price, camera clarity, storage capacity and ease of use compared to some others on the market that I've tried. I don't work for this company or have any relationship with them--this is an unbiased opinion and I paid full price for it!
Works great for live feed. Motion alerts and recordings not that great. Needs better software to view recordings.
November 25, 2015
I have now had this Fujikam 361 HD security camera for 5 months. Here is my experience with it. It is solid and well made. It is bigger than you might think. It is easy to set up. The live feed image quality and audio is excellent. Remote pan and tilt works extremely well with a swipe of the live image on a smart phone. Price is excellent. I do have a few gripes. Motion sensitivity is extremely difficult to set and I'm still trying to get day and night settings that do not over-capture or under-capture. Sometimes I get no recording at all with motion and other times I get a recording every 2-5 minutes for hours for no apparent reason. The clicking sound when the motion sensor is activated is kind of annoying and makes visitors inquire if you are snapping their picture. It rarely and unreliably sends a motion alert to my Samsung S5 phone. My biggest gripe is the software. You must use the manufacturers software to view any recorded imaged. It is difficult to sort through captured images and video with the manufacturers online software especially if there are dozens of "false alarm" motion recordings. As I said above, it is very difficult to get the motion sensitivity setting just right so I tend to over capture rather than risk not recording. It is not possible to download any recorded video or pics to your computer without removing the SD card and inserting it into the computer. You can then save the recordings by copying the files over to your computer from the SD card but still so tedious to sort through them there. I wish this camera would allow me to email images to myself. The camera hardware and software does not allow email of motion triggered pics or video to yourself. (More basic Linksys security cameras have this email function built in.) You have to use the manufacturers software to view any pics or video. Tedious and takes forever. If it emailed the recorded images you would not have to upload them to the manufacturers website and would also have more privacy. I'm still looking for something better but not able to find it at this price point.
Great Quality Camera System!
July 20, 2015
I was very excited to receive this product. As soon as I got it I set it up right away (which took about 5 mins) and I was very impressed with the quality of this camera. I am very happy with my purchase though I wish there were a way to mount it without having to keep it directly plugged in to a power source. It works fabulously & I will definitely be purchasing more from fujikam!

**UPDATE**
After using the camera system for about 2-3 weeks I have to admit that the MIPC app is not very good at all. I'm constantly having to reset the app because the picture keeps freezing on my phone & the touch to pan and tilt doesn't respond on time , if at all. Also the app crashes on my Acer All in one tablet. Basically I HAVE to use my laptop... Which it still freezes. Disappointed with the app you have to use with camera.

Pretty crap quality
August 22, 2016
Pretty crap quality.. Wireless is kinda cool until you realize that its not wireless power and if you have to run a cord for power, you might as well run a coax for a standard camera with better res. If this is needed indoors for a well lit room, it may be beneficial.
Very basic functionality and very basic reliability.
December 12, 2015
it's an okay entry level security camera. the main issue is it's wireless signal quality vs distance. the quality degrades real fast the farther away you are from the receiver. i wouldn't setup this thing farther than 2~3 rooms away. even 3 rooms is a stretch. probably no more than 2 rooms is the most ideal. the main issue is once the signal degrades, the signal drops and will require a manual hard reset to bring it back online. now how many of you actually constantly check the signal on a daily basis. i have three of these setup around the house. two for the front of the house, one for the backyard. the security system is setup in a way that's closest to the two cameras in the front of the house. naturally, the 3rd cam is getting less than ideal signal, i think 2~3 bars out of 5 bar signal. the 3rd camera constantly drops signal and would require you to unplug the AC adaptor and plug it back in to reset, and even then, it doesn't always do it right, sometimes you're required to reset both the camera AC and the receiver. I"ve had one cam die on me in the course of roughly 3 years.also keep in mind that even in essence it's a wireless cam, but in reality, you're still tied to an AC outlet. even the video feed is wireless, the power unit still needs to be plugged into an outlet. which is why i said this is meant for amature entry level users like me. in the most ideal condition, would want to stay away from wireless and use wired cams and run the video and power feed all around the house. but that would require a lot of work around the house either before it was built, or renovation.as long as you're aware of its pros and cons going in, there won't be any surprises.only thing i would suggest if getting this unit is, stay away from Lorex's own security software and monitoring programs, they're very poorly written.
Lorex LW2110 Wireless Digital Camera
August 29, 2013
I have a property that already has cameras installed (hard wired) but wanted to add coverage of a couple of other areas without having wires trailing everywhere. Going 'Wireless' was an option I was prepared to explore. With two buildings back to back - one containing the central hub, dvr, wireless receiver etc. and the other with the camera set up, I found that the actual wireless signal was comparatively weak for such a short transmission distance.Granted, the signal had to travel through a couple of brick walls, but the monitor on which the camera feed can be viewed showed that the camera was constantly in a "Connecting" mode. When that happens, nothing happens! You can see a picture on the monitor but it could be 5 seconds or 5 hours old.The solution, as such, was judicious positioning of the receiver until such time as the "Connecting" message disappeared from the monitor. At that time, the camera started to function properly and streamed pictures to the DVR. Focus quality is just average so don't expect great detail.I am constantly amazed that a satellite orbiting the earth can 'see' clearly enough to read the headlines of a newspaper someone on Earth might be holding, but the picture quality of pro-sumer CCTVs is still very poor when trying to record people or an event just yards away from the camera.I wasn't expecting the world, and got just what I expected.
Having to unplug and plug back in frequently
April 16, 2012
Camera worked very well first few weeks. Simple to install. I have it on my front porch and the receiver is inside my home so it appears to be fine through bricks. I was going to buy a 2nd one for back porch but am now hesitant. The camera stops working ar least once every 2 weeks. I'm having to unplug it and plug it back in to get it reconnected. It worked great for several weeks when I first used it. Really disappointed since it was easy to set up and had great night and day vision.
GOOD ENTRY LEVEL CAMERA
November 1, 2011
Better than expected. Image is pretty clear in daylight. Image OK (not great) with IR turned on. Extremely simple to install. No drilling or attic work required. I use this camera to augment my wired cameras. Note that a power source outlet is needed either indoors or outdoors to operate the camera. The receiving antenna also needs a power source. The antenna output either plugs directly into the video in on your television or goes into an open channel on a DVR. The camera is a good buy considering the convenience and fairly decent image quality. Image resolution is user selectable at 640/480 or 320/240 my simply pressing a button on the receiving antenna. The actual camera is smaller than it appears. It can be mounted near a power outlet or simply stood up on a flat surface.
Would not purchase this one again.
August 7, 2011
I purchased this to replace a sharx unit. The sharx would die after a year or so outside. When I opened the box I discovered that the camera was missing the small plastic pin which keeps the antenna on the camera. I hate the hassle of returning so I made sure it still could send a signal and used silicone to keep it in place. My choice not to return it so thats on me but the lack of a pin is on them.The nut on the back of the mount was left loose and so I had to remove the mount after I had already installed it to fix that (while perched 14 feet up in the air on a ladder). The wing nuts on the mount strip easily because they are plastic not metal. How much could a metal wing nut cost? A nickel more?The range on this camera if very good. I have to span 125' and pass through one exterior wall and I still get 3 bars of signal. The approx 12 frames per second is not too good, much worse than the Sharx. The picture is good with regard to color and field of view, but has less resolution than the Sharx (which costs less). You can tell the model of a car and get a general idea of a persons size but you'll never be able to make out a face or license plate or anything like that.I'll reserve final judgement until I see how long it lasts in an outdoor environment (under the eave of a roof), but so far, I can't recommend it.

Good camera but too sensitive
April 4, 2017
I ended up retuning it.
I thought the features and function were great. The video quality was pretty good and the motion alerts with live video to my phone were very useful. I was able to be alerted when the dog sitter came and talk to her through the camera.
My two knocks, and why I returned it are: (1) the motion sensor was tooo sensitive. Even when turning it way down in the settings. To cover a room it had to be pointed in the direction of the window. Every time a branch or the power lines blew (a minimum 20 feet way) I'd get an alert to my phone. Let me tell you how that freaks you out at night in a new house you are still getting used to.
(2) No Zwave or Zigbee compatibility which meant that I couldn't connect it to a hub later for better and integrated functionality.
As a stand alone camera, I was still happy, especially at the price. But being unable to resolve the alert sensitivities sealed it for me.
Mostly good, but certainly not perfect
March 5, 2017
We have this placed in our living room mostly to keep an eye on the 22-year-old when we are away. I bought this one because I didn't want my living room video stored in the cloud and the price was good. Also, I liked that I didn't have to have a separate hard drive and would just record to an SD card on motion. It mostly works well. Set up is pretty simple. The video is decent quality and the app is easy to use.

There are a few quibbles I have with it. 1. From time to time the thing needs to be rebooted or the video won't capture. 2. Getting the motion detection settings right is difficult. The challenge is getting it set so that it will capture video when someone walks across the room, but not too sensitive that it will start recording when a bird flies by the window. 3. It would be nice to have an on/off toggle in the app so that I can turn it off when I'm home without having to unplug it.
A cheap alternative to real security cameras
February 10, 2017
One thing I hate about this device is you have to download a PDF file to read instructions. Way too many pages to print.
Took me an hour before I gave up and called support to ask why the printed password wouldn't work.
I had to "reset" the device and nowhere on the PDF instructions even said this. I'm having a hard time finding a place to put it. While it looks small, it's not. I was planning to put in window but too big to sit on window sill. Dragged a table to window. Too low. So now it sits on top of the box it came in on table. I thought I could watch video by playback. You have to use one of those itty bitty SD cards, take it out and put in computer to watch video on what went on. If you can watch playback, I can't figure out how by instructions. This device will work for now. But as soon as I can afford it, I'm getting a security company to put in real camera's.
Separate reviews for Vimtag B-1 outdoor and VT-361 indoor cameras - outdoor is 2 star, indoor is 4 stars
August 9, 2015
** Be aware that reviews for the Vimtag B-1 outdoor camera and the VT-361 indoor pan/zoom camera are mixed together in these reviews so be SURE you know which camera the reviewer is talking about. I review both cameras **

2/22/17 update - Today, FiOS updated my internet service with 150/150 service with a 2.4Hz and 5GHz dual band router. In order to update the Vimtag wifi on both the B-1 outdoor AND the VT-361 indoor cameras, you HAVE to run a CAT 5 cable directly from the modem to each camera and then drill down into the app and update the router name and password. What total a pain in the a$$ because I have 4 Vimtags, two B-1 outdoor and two VT-361 indoor cameras. Apparently you can also use a laptop with a CAT 5 cable as well but I was too far along in the first process to switch over and I was too aggravated at the clowns at Vimtag. To add insult to aggravation, the bozos at Vimtag DO NOT anwer their phone. It's "leave a message and we'll call back" or "email us". I chose the latter and got called back about 20 minutes later and informed about the CAT 5 cable from the modem to each camera. So if you order these from Amazon, put a 100 foot Amazon basics CAT cable in with the order because you're eventually going to need it.

12/26/16 update - I have two of these cameras front and back at my home. I just installed the Ring Pro doorbell camera and it blows the Vimtag B-1 cameras away. The Ring Pro is easier to install, a LOT smaller, requires one doorbell wire, can be mounted without using a doorbell at all with a 24vac transformer, has a 160 degree field of view compared to about 100 degrees for the Vimtag, The Ring Pro can pan and zoom and has audio communication which the Vimtag B-1 also lacks. I pointed my Vimtag front B-1 camera at my front door and the Ring Pro covers everything else. The Ring con is price - $199 versus $99 for the B-1 but I found the Ring Pro from a new seller for $99 but the jury is still out on that acquisition because the second Ring Pro has not arrived yet. But even at twice the price, the Ring Pro is 4 times the camera over the Vimtag. The final plus for the Ring pro is that rather than fooling around with a 32gb card and hoping you capture and event, for $30 a year, Ring will keep the data in their could for 6 months. I looked at the Nest doorbell cam but the monitoring for an outdoor camera is $200 a year!!!

In summary, give the Ring Pro a hard look before the Vimtag B-1 and certainly the Nest cam.

Original review -
This review is for the outdoor B-1 camera (NOT the VT 361 indoor camera!) that I have setup overlooking my driveway. It works really well but I have a requests for improvement

Pro -
Easy initial Set up but lots of "drill down" settings
Installation is not difficult, it you mount it upside down it has a "flip" control to invert the image
The app works well on my iPhone. It's better than the D Link app which cuts out frequently
Very Clear image
Highly weather resistant - I live north of Buffalo, NY and this camera can take weather beating
There are a LOT of settings and it takes a while to get familiar with all of them and figure out how to get it take snapshots and record.
On line upgrade is simple and only takes a few minutes

Con -
Wish it had a wider view.
Wish it would pan, zoom and tilt and voice/sound
Requires some skill to install outside due to the large RJ-45 coupler for set up. I used a Carlon 4" x 6" box custom configured for the camera.

Overall this camera is crisp and clear, has an on board 32GB card and the iPhone app works well. My one star deduction is for the limited viewing width, no pan and tilt and ingenuity required to install outdoors with the large plugs for the RJ-45 connector, power and reset button

VT-361 Indoor camera - This camera is a lot better than the B-1 outdoor camera because of tilt, pan, zoom and voice functions. Uses a 32GB storage card that works OK. I paid $99 for my VT-361 and for $69, it's a lot better deal. I have no issues with the VT-361 other than updating the wifi for a new modem/router or password change requires a CAT 5 hardwire hookup. If you have the VT-361 camera 20 feet in the air in a large entrance way, get the ladder out and practice your cussing right now.
I expected more based on all the great reviews.
July 18, 2015
I wanted a camera to check in on my dog and chose this one based on all the great reviews and it being an Amazon Best Seller. Perhaps all the hype raised my expectations too much. It's OK. It was easy to set up, sort of. The first day, I could only get a picture if I left it plugged into the router; it would go black when trying to use wifi, although I completed the set up process and it had said I could unplug the cable. Today I managed to get it to work without the cable allowing me to move it to a better location. A lot of reviewers talk about the HD video. Well, I have seen some moments of good picture, but most, especially movement, is pretty broken up, and the lag time for me is an issue. Sometimes the lag time is a few seconds, but sometimes the lag time is much longer, perhaps closer to a minute. So, if I see my dog doing something he shouldn't, I wouldn't dare to use the voice feature because it may be long over and he may be sleeping on his bed by the time I see it. The lag also applies to the pan and tilt. That feature may be useful if you decide you want to monitor a different part of the room, but if you are trying to follow something that is happening, realize it may have already happened and it can take a few minutes to have the camera actually turn to see the new area. At the low cost, I will keep it, but I don't see it being as useful as I had anticipated.

I am disappointed in this camera
April 26, 2015
I am disappointed in this camera. I have it in the garage and it keeps going off. I have to go out to the garage unplug, wait a few minutes then plug it back in It will work for about 10 minutes then go back off. It is wireless and I don't know why it does not stay on.
Not a reliable product
July 28, 2014
Simple to set up and pair, but over time, the camera's lose connections to the receiver and has to be re-booted about once a month. Have had the receiver fail twice. Once under warranty, it took a long time to receive the replacement. Another receiver has failed after the warranty period. Telephone support means very long wait times on hold. eMail support a little better to respond. I would not recommend this product.
Has it's place - but not in my system :o(
October 3, 2013
I have a regular wired system and thought this wireless camera would be usefull for temperary uses. WRONG! The major issue it has is the delay it causes a DVR for "Motion" alerts. I couldn't figure out why when I would look at the alerts for this camera nothing was ever there. I did some testing by having someone walk by causing an alert and watch what happens. By the time the alert was passed through the wireless portal the person had passed and was not recorded. Using fulltime recording for this camera allowed the person to be recorded but then you have to review a lot of data. Also found that the connections are not very water resistant and lost video during a storm. After drying the connections I gave them a heavy coat of spray lacquer and that seems to work. It has a descent field of view but I prefer cameras that have a manual zoom feature to adjust what you want to see. If your just using it to see who is at the door when they knock and don't want the trouble of running video cable it would work fine. The cost isn't much better than many high quality wired cameras I use and will stick with them. :o]
Very Easy to use! but short life span :(
July 7, 2013
Install the camera with 3 screws and plug it into an outlet. Hook up the receiver to your TV, Computer or DVR, plug it into an outlet and you are done! I have mine installed 75 feet away and I have no problem with the wireless connection. Night vision is not that great, then again I'm using it to monitor a large area. I'm sure it's great within 10 feet. If I knew it was this easy, I would have bought a few of these with a DVR and have myself a complete surveillance system without the wires. Are there better cameras with higher resolutions? Sure, but you will pay a lot more for them. I give it 4 stars for my needs.Update: The camera occationaly loses signal at night. I'm glad I bought the hard wired system as my main security.Update: After 8 months, it stopped working. I checked it out and noticed water vapor inside the camera. This is NOT weather proof! Don't buy this.
Started out good but declined rapidly.
September 8, 2012
Worked fine for about a month then started loosing connecting more and more. After 3 months it is disconnected most of the time even though the camera is only about 30 feet from the receiver. Disappointed after the awesome performance of their LBC6050 camera.
Wireless internet interference @ 2.4 GHz
April 7, 2012
The concept of this wireless security camera is great and easy to setup, yet it heavily interfered with your wireless internet network.I brought the DVR with 4 wireless camera to install around the house. However, whenever the wireless receiver power up, my wireless internet network basically dead on the spot. My family rely heavily on wifi access from VoIP, smart phone, tablet, laptop, computer, smart TV, etc. After some digging and test and trail, I finally realized that the Lorex LW2110 Wireless Digital Security Camera is running on 2.4GHz band, which is same band as most of the router out there. Whenever the receiver is on, it will jammed the 2.4 GHz band and virtually make all the other wifi receiver slow down (in my case, from 20MB to 1.5MB according to speedtest website). Unless you have the newer 5.8 GHz wireless router in your home network, this unit will jam your normal 2.4GHz Band wifi router.

Hard to get it to record at a specific time
November 29, 2016
Very hard to get it setup to record correctly. I have had 4 calls with the technical support. They are very nice but I can't get it to record at a specific time. The tech resets the paramaters each time and then reboots my camera. I lose whatever I have recorded but that doesn't really matter because I can't get it to record at the right times anyway. It seems to keep changing the time zones. I'm pretty technical but this camera is too buggy and I'm spending over 2 hours with the help desk. 30 minutes a clip. I haven't tried other cameras but this is very hard to schedule a recording.

Half of the time I can't get it working and I have to wait until I go to my mothers house to reset it. It's very buggy. I often can't move the camera
update: dropped another star
October 31, 2016
**Update**
Dropped one more star. I still only use this for live monitoring since the motion detection feature gets really frustrating. In addition to all other issues, one of my cameras periodically shows offline and can't be accessed. It comes back on its own after a while. Also trying to use these for live monitoring with audio on gets annoying after a while because of the constant device generated background noise. It must be a noise from the tilt/pan motor but it comes through constantly even when the camera is still. They should find a way to filter that out. I am definitely looking for a better security camera now.

The good:
- It was fairly easy to set up
- Tilt/pan feature is nice and has a good range
- It's nice to be able to listen in - I have not had a chance to use it for a two-way conversation to see how good the speaker is

The bad:
- The motion detection feature has been the most frustrating part. It just did not work for me. I ended up getting so many false notifications that I disabled the alarms and just use it for keeping an eye on things when I am away. I played around with the sensitivity settings and still could not get it to work. I put one in a dark attic with no movement and it would still send me motion detection alarms.
- The software is not that good. There are no controls on the video playback. You don't seem to be able to select videos/images you get with the notification on your device to delete the ones you don't want. Given the false notification issue, you end up with a bunch of useless images/videos.
- One of the units seems to have an issue with a flash of light that gets captured on the videos and snapshots. There is a sudden click that you hear along with the flash and a couple of seconds of the video or some of the pictures get completely blurred because of it.
- No cloud storage. You have to use the SD cards, but you can also save the images/videos on your device.

Also the "Super HD" title is misleading. The picture is just ok, but definitely not "Super HD". Overall it's an ok unit for the money, but I will be looking for one with better motion detection capability. If anyone has any suggestions for a better unit, please comment.
Red glowing purposeless piece of plastic
June 26, 2016
It has been a year and I really can't stand this thing. It would seem easy enough to set the sensitivity to capture motion from a person and not from a leaf dropping from a tree or dust in the air, but I simply can't reliably. It either captures everything sending notifications every few minutes or seconds, to absolute ignorance of motion. It does not help that after each adjustment you need to turn it off and turn it on to make the setting changes take effect - really you do even though it says you don't. But there is no guarantee of this and after a year I have given up. It is not reliable. You ask it to record from one time to another and nothing happens. So you try resetting the setting to ask again and it works once. Then it doesn't. Why? I don't know. You get the sensitivity of motion close enough and ask it to stop notifying you then bam - it fails to notice any motion whatsoever. Why? I can't tell. You think - I will just record for a set amount of time to capture the entire babysitting time expecting to fast forward through the footage to save time - but no - no scanning. What I ended up doing was to use the screen capture while showing the video feed on the screen. Well this lets the entire household know you are filming and whatever is said by the computer is picked up on the screen capture. So you are looking at what is being filmed but experiencing ghost vocals during playback (who is talking?). Any way, maybe this would work in another household where motion and playback is not important so I gave a second star. But for me, it is a frustrating piece of red glowing purposeless plastic.
Looked Forward To This But Ended Up Disappointed.
March 26, 2016
PROS:
1) Easy to setup.
2) Nice & simple design.
3) Showed a good image when it worked.

CONS:
1) Stopped working after day 3.
2) Could not get it to work again even after resetting it to manufacturer settings, re-downloading the app and trying to set up a new account.
3) I noticed it did not always record moving objects/persons as I programmed it to when I sat in the same room with it while doing my computer work. Neither could I get it to record me as I blatantly moved in front of it.
4) Camera head which rotates on the black base felt like the movement was not smooth.
5) The original made for packaging/box did not look like it came brand new from the factory due to the multiple etched impressions and smudges I saw on it, and I then suspected that it was previously owned or used by someone else.
6) Expected a brand new camera but believe I got a refurbished one.
7) Customer service had odd hours opening at 10:30am the earliest on the weekday that I called.
8) Customer service personnel said they had to have someone else call me back to help me reset my password, which lead me to believe the company was not entirely professional or well established.

CONCLUSION: I returned this item for a full refund.
Was hopeful, but.....
July 25, 2015
The features and quality of this camera are decent, but there are 2 major drawbacks: both the Android and iOS apps only allow you to remotely view for some variable amount of time before the streaming just stops without warning, and the apps sometimes cannot connect to whatever "account" needs to be created. In the latter case, the app must be force closed and, in the case of our iPad, the device must be restarted in order for the connection to the service to complete successfully. Another drawback is the fact that the "MIPC" Android and iOS apps do not maintain their settings each time the app is opened - you have to unmute the sound every time you look into a camera feed, for instance.

I was really only looking for a simple solution here to replace a baby monitoring system - a camera in a room that I can view on a smartphone/tablet at all times for any duration of time. I need to be alerted to movement of a child - even in the middle of the night - and I can do this with this camera and app. Perhaps there is another app that can connect to this camera without the need for some account to be created, certainly seems like our video feeds are going through some offsite system somewhere - doesn't give you the warm and fuzzy, that's for sure.

Have very good picture. These cameras lose their night vision after a year. Have four of these and all are blind after the sun sets. Installed motion lights and cured the problem, but beware of this problem. Installed model up @ neighbors and all are still working fine after more than a year.
Terrible! Had 4 replacements

Terrible! Had 4 replacements. Payed for myself! The system went down quite often! Cameras blacked out or simply broke!. Never ever again would I buy a product from Lorex!
Lorex LW2110 wireless cameras can fail in less than one year of service.
March 20, 2016
This camera, that was protected by a surge protector Failed in less than one year of usage. I purchased it in August of 2014 but did not put into service until April of 2015. The receiver works, the power adapter works but the camera no longer activates or is operational!
Failed again
July 1, 2013
Ordered a four camera security system from Lorex and all four cameras failed within 10 months. Lorex replaced the cameras and they also failed within months. Ordered this LW2110 camera from Amazon to replace a failed camera (not wanting to wait weeks to receive a replacement camera from Lorex). This LW2110 camera failed within days. These are indoor/outdoor cameras, my cameras are all installed outdoors, but out of the weather under enclosed spaces - they still fail. Lorex technical support is grueling. As a security camera the LW2110, in my experience, is an unreliable camera.
LOREX SECURITY CAMERA
February 9, 2013
This camera's pictures have a jerking motion when it pick up something and you cannot make out what is on the picture that you see, forget about asking for technical help all you get is the run around if you get anybody to snswer the phone at all,I do not recomend anyone to buy this security camera because in my opinion you are throwing your money away.I got so discussed trying to get help with fixing tiis problem that I threw te whole thing in the garbage and AMAZON was of no help either and I have been doing business with them for several years and will not ever buy electronics from them again ever,over the years I thought AMAZON was better than that until I had a problem with something I bought from them and needed their assistance.by the way this was supposed to be a new item.I DO NOT RECOMMEND.GOOD BYE AMAZON.
NEVER PURCHASE A LOREX PRODUCT!!!
March 19, 2012
I purchased 2 Lorex LW2110 Wireless Digital Security Cameras and one was damaged. I called Lorex to get a new camera and was told to wait . After waiting and waiting I finally received a camera that was refurbished. I was told no matter how much money I spend they will never send a new product, it has to be a refurbish. The camera I received came with giant scratches on it and one of the places to secure the bolt was completely stripped out. This is a terrible company never do business with them.

Not reliable
September 16, 2017
This has not been a reliable system. Cloud box seems to record ok, The data labeling has been erratic. Cameras purchased for this system are not reliable as well. First camera worked great for three months then stopped recording. Confirmed this by purchasing second camera. Second camera records but has software issues. Would definitely not recommend purchasing if you want to be sure it is going to work every time it is activated.

Impossible to completely deactivate the microphone on the camera. This is very important if you don't want the sound to be transmitted. You can go to setting and turn the volume to 0, but sound still can be heard. For example, if you connect to camera from your office pc with speakers attached, you WILL HEAR the conversation. I called their tech support twice and explained the problem and asked if anything else can be done. They couldn't help.
Doesn't connect to WiFi but the older model does
July 31, 2017
I ordered this quite awhile ago when it was called "Fujikam". I still have that camera, which works flawlessly, and wanted a second. I'm disappointed to say that the Vimtag seems to be unable to connect to Wifi. I tried a replacement and got the same issue. How do I know it's not a problem with my home Wifi setup? Because I have the previous model that was called "Fujikam" that IS able to connect to my Wifi. I had to troubleshoot this myself because the "product support" doesn't really have the capability to help troubleshoot issues like this beyond suggesting a return / refund and a few obvious fixes. I AM able to connect to wired Ethernet but that's not going to cut it for my situation. The setup process using the Android app doesn't even work, either. You're supposed to hold the phone near it as it plays a sound or show it a QR code, neither of which worked for me.

Avoid this. If you run into a problem during setup, you're going to have a hard time resolving it. Also, I heard that it's very easy for someone to hack in and view your camera.
Vimtag B-1 Outdoor Video camera.
May 24, 2017
I can't believe this camera gets good reviews. When it arrived (late) I thought it looked well made, and after reading all the positive reviews
I was it expecting it to work well, that was not the case.
I had to use the included cable to set it up, it would not connect via wifi. Once I got it working all it would do was display real-time video,
with no instructions and no customer support available I could not get it to do what it's described to do.
After two hours of trying to get it set-up I re-boxed it and sent it back. What a waste of time!
Motion detection is utterly useless
May 8, 2017
This was such a useless purchase. Overall the camera is fairly user-friendly however no matter how much you adjust the sensitivity of motion detection it constantly records from the slightest change in lighting, etc. I had hoped to use this as more of a security device while away on trips etc but when my home is empty, lights off the motion detection is constantly triggered by as far as I can tell by watching the videos, absolutely nothing at all. I could have gone much cheaper than this but should have looked at more expensive systems/cameras. Avoid this at all costs unless you feel like sifting through hours and hours of useless videos of absolutely nothing at all.
READ THIS! Use this camera at your OWN RISK!!
February 4, 2016
I cannot believe Amazon even sells this item... The worst possible thing that could happen with this product happened to me, 1 day after setting it up. Ironically, using this camera for peace of mind actually put me at more risk of criminal activity. Here's why...

I read other low ratings for this noting that people gave high ratings for discounts, and that this camera does not encrypt your wifi password when you set it up. I'm no expert so google it- lots of expert info online about how risky these are. So I see all these warnings and I'm like, tons of people rated high so it can't be THAT risky. I even called Vimtag and asked their tech guys about it. He claimed "bank level security", but could not offer my any documentation, encryption methods, nothing. I ignored my paranoia and installed it anyway. Then it got weird...

It worked for a day, I was liking the image, and alerts etc... I had it pointed out my front window sitting inside on the sil. I got a movement alert to my phone and later checked the live image. Somehow, the camera was now facing the opposite direction pointing up my stairs. The recorded video on the SD card was of me, walking down the stairs. It turned all the way around and recorded me in my house. I was the only person home and absolutely did not move the camera myself.

I then noticed that my 2015 Mac Pro which was closed/asleep, had gone from 100% to 75% battery within an hour or so - again, while closed/asleep. I had JUST taken it off the charger. My router records also showed thousands of access attempts from IP addresses all over the world had just happened.

I called tried to change my wifi password and someone had already done so. They also changed my device access code for the router. I factory reset and within minute it had been changed again. Now my net is disconnected, pending replacement of my router for security reasons.

Why Amazon sells a product with known security risks speaks volumes about their priorities to me. I thought people were being paranoid, but turns out exactly what they warned about happened to me within a day. DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT. So shady... I now have the pleasure of resetting all my passwords and info and not having access to the net for several days while I clean up this mess. I only hope there are no other precautions I'm missing that will pop up later... Ugh...
