Spytec Zetta ZIR32 720p HD Night Vision Intelligent Security Camera

Wow, this camera has been a blessing. Ive been trying to catch a culprit making messes in my house. Wanting to go least expensive, I have been buying and experimenting with some mini "cube" type mini cameras, cant get them to work and the instruction manuals are so horribly translated it's a joke. So, not getting anywhere I decided to just 'bite the bullet' and get something more professional. After searching and reading reviews on spy cameras, I noticed this one kept showing up and had a lot of positive input from other users. Found the best price here on Amazon and bought it. Instruction manual is written in cognitive english, all the software you need is on or linked thru Spy Tech's website. Easy to set up and get running for basic operation or you can use an extended custom mode which covers almost any type of scenario you may need to get a subject on video (heat sensor, voice trigger, vibration trigger, motion trigger or you can hook it up to an external sensor for trigger signal).Success!! This camera works awesome!! Used it twice over two nights and immediately identified my furry offender. I am extremely pleased that I purchased this camera and am just as happy with how it operates. Daytime video provides very good results and night mode has been impressive! This camera is made by a company named Zetta, they have five or so different camera solutions. I suggest you research all the varying models with different features to see which one fits your needs. I would recommend this camera to family and friends.

I bought this for protection of my car due to a vandalism problem. I had to format the micro SD card (sold separetely) in order to get it to read in the camera. I am not a technical person, but I was able to follow the directions that were emailed to me by the support team and change the formatting. I set the camera up to run continuously in my car and it recorded all day while my car was parked. I was pleasantly surprised the battery lasted! However, since the camera as inside the car pointing out, the bright sunlight made it impossible to see anything outside the car, but the view inside the car was good. Therefore it would not have filmed anyone damaging my car due to the sun glare. Parked inside in a parking garage, with no sun glare, it did film everything outside my car as well. But you really can't get a good view of both sides of the car, you have to pick one or the other. This is small and compact and pretty easy to figure out for a non-technical person like myself!

Actually works very well.. Sensitivity is more touchy than expected,so taking the time to play with and discover best settings is a must.. Sometimes night vision kicks in a little late but usually works very well... So far a great purchase.. Will update this review after more time is spent with this product.. Now hope I can catch my the if...

Doesn't work as advertised, picture quality of a cell phone camera from the early 2000's, sound quality is laughable, motion activation is horrible, and waste of money.

this is an extremely niche product, and one of the only ones like it that I could find. I needed something that would record under low/no light in an enclosed space with no power source or internet connection.When it worked, paired with the Zetta ZA22 IR , it was actually better than expected. Some other reviews mention bad quality video, but to me, this is about as good as you can expect from a device like this. I could record all night (8-12 hours) on a single charge. I could make out people on the recorded video, even at full darkness (the option IR light was needed).The problem is, I ordered 3 of these. 1 completely quit working after a month, the 2nd one lasted about 3 months until the battery would only record about an hour before shutting off, and the 3rd is actually still going strong. So, the quality control is all over the place with this product, and you might not know if you have a good one until the return period is over.That being said, it's really the only product out there like it that doesn't cost ten times as much, so you're pretty much stuck with gambling on this if you really need it. Unfortunately I am stuck with 2 expensive paperweights now.

Update (12/7/2017): I replaced the receiver port for the USB and cleaned the internals up a bit. Audio recording restored and video image is clearer after cleaning some oxidation on a few connections. [I don't recommend amateurs try this]. Camera is fully functional again, and has been actively recording almost continuously for three months. The battery lasts about a week on a single charge with 3-5 activations each day (lasting 2-15 min each). I was unable to get the night vision to work, so it still needs used in a well lit area.Update (4/28/2017):I've had it for about two years now, with frequent use. Picture has slowly degraded, and the audio sensors stopped working. Does ok with a timer set. Stopped working entirely when the receiver port for the USB stopped connecting to the USB cord.Original Review:1 star for awesomely fast shipping. 1 star for eventually working. 1 star for perfect motion sensor activation.Minus 1 star for complicated set up that required multiple downloads & formatting that took 3 hours. Minus 1 star because there is NO night vision as advertised.

Excellent little camera. The picture quality might not be the best, but it gets the job done. I ordered one to keep watch on my car and it is awesome! I didn't expect much of the night vision, but it works rather well. The battery life has also been good so far. I have charged it once since receiving the item and it is a week later and still going...I use it about 4+ hours a day. I highly recommend this camera.
