   Not terrible…. But…., January 9, 2012

   Drumbe (SLC, UT) –

   This review is from: Q-See QSZ515D Outdoor PTZ Speed Dome Camera (Electronics)

   I have bought this item from another webiste and the information listed here about the camera is inexact. in particular, the 10X zoom. This is a 3X Zoom camera. Hope this prevents someone from ordering this and not getting what they expected. Check the manufacture website for more info. www.q-see.com.

   FYI – I really like the camera… If some other company list the item, I would be more than happen to give a proper review.

   UPDATE…. Per my previous statement. Here is a better review. The information, about the zoom spec of the camera is still shown as inexact. Below is the current specs:

   540 TV Lines Pledge
   3X Optical Zoom
   Lens: F = 5mm (WIDE) – 15mm (TELE)
   1/3″ CCD image sensor
   0.01 Lux

   It is stated as being a affect camera, and it is. One thing to note is that different cameras handle affect another way. I only know of 2 ways. One is everywhere the picture you see is permanently affect, day or night.

   And another way is like this camera. All through the day ( high light level) the view is in affect. All through the night (low light level) the camera reverts to black and white. My understanding of this is, this improves low light pledge. For my purpose, this facility fantastic. When it does show affect, all through the daytime, it is very accurate and mostly clear.

   Take note also this item needs to be taken apart in peacefulness to be setup. The instruction are not clear on how to do this. The camera comes in 2 pieces, the mount bracket 1 pc and the camera and base another piece. If I get a chance I will post pictures showing what that looks like.

   I highly recommend this camera if you are in search of a PTZ type that has full automatic, basic functionality. Most, if not all of the cheaper PTZ cameras I researched had only manual controls. Example, the zoom was manual instead of auto. And the directional control was manual instead of automatic

   One final thing to mention… The instructions for a first time Camera DIY’er are horrible, especially when it comes to camera setup. If tribulations are encountered try posting comments here and someone may be able to answer your question before to much frustration sets in (smile)….

   I do not work for any of the companies that sale this item….
