Works Great as Advertised! |
I can monitor and control the camera's from anywhere in the world using the internet, as well as monitor and control the camera's on my tv. The keyword here is MONITOR. These Panasonic camera's are basically webcams, and should NEVER be compared to a professional grade CCTV security camera system. Even their own website refers to them as "pet cams".
I previously purchased a single BL-C30A camera that worked so well that I needed more for other areas of the house. The BL-MS103-PK ($500 less than the MS103-A version) fit the bill, plus I could connect and control each camera from my TV. The BL-MS103-PK comes with 3 BLC30A cameras, and a BL-WV10A monitoring unit (the part that connects to the tv).
Pros: Panasonic provided DDNS service (viewnetcam.com) which allows for internet viewing from anywhere in the world (apparently you can can also view from your pda and/or cell phone too, but I haven't tried). You can even Pan and Tilt the camera (and digital zoom) over the internet for versatility.
Cons: Cumbersome setup, but not much more complicated than setting up any other wireless peripheral. I used software version 1.23, but I saw they have 1.30 on the Panasonic website. I don`t know if that would have made it easier. I'd rate the difficulty of setting up the camera's as a 7 (10 being most difficult) for the first camera, and 1 for all camera's after it.
Generally I don't agree with the other 3 reviews on the BL-MS103-A. Trying to use a webcam as a security system is just foolish. Unable to view 3 cams on one page? I can view all 4 of my cams on one page, and if I had 12 cams, I could watch all 12 at once! To get a better idea of the review ratings, look at the reviews for the BL-C30A camera. This is the real meat of this kit.
