Best Buy is blowing them out for $19.95. It was so cheap I thought I'd try it out. What a waste of money. Hope I get a refund.

This isn't bad for a little toy camera with a 1/16" lens, about the same as other tiny cameras and webcams. They claim 640X480 resolution but I think it's more like 320X240 but it's fine for checking to see who's at the front or back door. Don't use the USB adapter though, that produces an even more fuzzy picture. The combination of a low resolution camera and a fuzzy USB adapter makes a combination that produces video where you really can't make out much detail. I took mine apart to focus the lens because you have to turn the front to focus it but it can't be reached inside the case and noticed that it was somewhat better outside the case. The plastic cover on the front seems to distort the video and wash out the color so I drilled it out leaving the front open. With the front open it won't be water proof any longer but the picture is better, at least in bright daylight. The infrared LED's also cause the picture to look mostly bluish/gray so you want to have good light, preferrably daylight, so it's best if you use this camera in a sunny location. Don't expect it to last long if the sun falls right on it though, that will cause the plastic lens to turn white and the picture will go out after a period of time in the sun. To use it in the dark with IR illumination you need to open it up and remove the IR filter that's stuck over the video sensor with double sided tape. It seems odd that a camera marketed as having "Night Vision" would have an IR filter but it does. With the filter on it won't be able to see much in darkness, even with extra IR illumination but with the filter removed it's nearly as bright as a real camera, still just as fuzzy as before though.
