Fair system
Cameras are good for daylight or good lighting conditions. Poor to no light the IR lights are to bright for close up items but not good enough for distant things in it's view. Set up was good.

good home system
the system is easy to set up and get going. It has lots of options on the recorder for playback,display and controls. Te weekest part of the system is the camaras. they have good night vision but color washes out and viewing angle is only 40 degrees so you need lots of camaras to see all that you want. I will need to get a couple wide angle lense camaras to fill in the dead spots
