Panasonic BL-C131A - Network camera - pan / tilt - color ( Day&Night ) - 802.11b, 802.11g

It's tilt and swivel

Acquiring video from applications seems to lack a standard for interoperability ; There is a less than optimal web interface with plug-ins ; The user-presets don't appear to be able to be selected as default home if the device is powered off and on...

Very easy to setup most of the part and the free access from the Internet is very nice. Great quality

I still can't the email client to setup to send me notifications

This camera has great web server software. It will stream a very decent quality video stream to your browser. One can log into the camera's web server with a mobile phone like an iPhone and it will actually stream video to Safari. It can email, text or...

Not much really. At this price, you really can't ask for much more

Once working it's a decent camera and does what it is supposed to do

It's a bear to set up to your liking...and I still haven't figured out the pre and post trigger image settings. I also can not get it to connect to my Linksys router if I have wireless security set up. It will only connect when I have wireless security...

Price could be lower. 802.11N would have been nice

The pros for this camera are a lot. It is very customizable, has a detailed menu/setup/control panel. The phone tech support is outstanding. I've owned very little Panasonic stuff, and it was great to speak to a human who really understood what they...

The only con I found was the lack of an instant record button. Although you can set it up to trigger on heat, motion and time. I just wish it had a record instant button

You don't even need a computer on site, once you have set up the camera/s

None

Phone support; WPA2 security; free dynamic DNS; accessible from mobile phone; built-in

Poor low-light performance; no video recording
