This cam is nice for small areas as well as bigger areas. It serves its purpose and then some. The broad view of areas is what I was searching for. It keeps me well informed when I’m away from home. The notifications are spot on! The playback version in HD is awesome! The feature of playing back as well as saving images on the SD card is a game changer. Time stamp and date is a constant. Well worth my money which was a decent price. Great job Lorex. Thanks again.
