Philips Reviews

This system has so many problems it's just not worth it. The IR illuminator does no good unless it's a couple feet from what you're looking at. Beyond two feet, my night vision is much much better than that of this camera. When the night vision does work, it's so grainy that it's hard to tell if I'm looking at my daughter or a pillow in her bed. The picture you get flickers white a lot, when the screen is otherwise almost completely black. (My wife didn't realize we had a lightning storm going on at one point, due to the severity of the flickering and flashing.) This system interferes with multiple wireless utilities we have in the house -- our wireless LAN and phones are completely incapacitated when the carma system is active. Who did they bribe at the FCC to get this approved? Also, when we turn on our microwave, the camera system malfunctions and gives no picture. Yuck!

I helped my brother-in-law install this into my nephews nursery. Even though the transmitter and the receiver are only about 10 feet apart and only going through the floor the picture has lines constantly going through it. We worked on it for over an hour, but we can't get a good clean image. We determined that a lot of it was caused by 2.4ghz wireless telephones. Which is the same frequency this camera runs off of. However it seems that many other pieces of electronic equipment also cause interference. Cell phones, radios, etc.... I would not recommend this to someone living in an apartment or townhome like my brother in law. Maybe if you didn't have to worry about interference coming in from your neighbors it would give a better picture once you shut down the interference from equipment in your own home. As for the night vision it is actually low light vision. It works great as long as there is some small light source such as a night light. In a completely black room you cannot see anything.

I Love this product. Works great and very clear picture. Found add on camears on e-bay. works well in low light or bright light only thing thats missing is color anyway buy this product if you don't like it return it with in 90 days with your receipt to your local Target store or the online center. But you won't need to !!
