You can use up to 4 additional cameras, BUT, the monitor does not feature a SCAN feature like other baby monitors do. You have to manually select which camera you want to observe. I purchased 2 monitor sets and was forced to return them because of the lack of this key feature.

I had the same question so I called the 1-800 number to Foscam and a rep told me that at this time you can't purchase just the camera you'd have to purchase the entire monitor system again in order to have an extra camera.

I want to have 2 monitors. Could I purchase 2 sets of these and place them in the same room, would they interfere with each other? Thanks

If the cameras are actually available from FOSCAM, i believe you can have up to 4.

You can have up to 4 cameras as long as they are the same brand of course. I bought the monitor with only one camera, but can buy additional cameras as needed.

You can swap out the cameras that come with it. If it is an 8 channel DVR then you can add up to 4 more.

I would think you would need 2 or more cameras. It is my guess that it would be too big, but depends on how much extras you have to put in with it.

Yes it can. You must use their software which will support up to 16 cameras. The software must be running on the computer. Unfortunately these type of cameras are proprietary so they cannot be mixed/matched with other brands. Their camera, their software, etc.

You can, but you have to buy the seperate camera. A very good buy and the picture quality is amazing.

Yes! I have done this and even purchased a different brand of cameras I believe it handles up to 8 cameras.

yes you can add better cameras. But you will need to make sure that they have the same connections.

Yes, you can have multiple cameras set up on your computer and app. You just have to add each camera through the "Manage Cameras" portion of the app. The computer has a number for each camera on the app that you can click on the number to view. This is not the identical camera I have. I have the Foscam FI8910W Pan & Tilt IP/Network Camera with Two-Way Audio and Night Vision. I just had to have my router support "reserve" me a port on the router so it didn't keep changing IP addresses so I could view it on my Android.

The Astak system has capability to handle four cameras on four separate channels. You can find additional cameras at Astak's home web page and probably for less at other sites. Just google Astak cameras and browse. Be aware you have to set a little switch on the camera's pigtail (Check the manual) to a channel that has not been selected already by the other cameras. Good luck, John H.

it could be your only camera but you still need the base station which can up to 5 camera's associated with it

Not that I know of, I know you can buy additional Summer Infant Additional Camera for Wide View Digital Color Video Baby Monitor by summer infant. Plus you can switch the screen to multi cameras.

I do not think you can add additional cameras. I know that out of the box in as-is condition, definitely not. You may be able to hook up something though an output/input, but I am not even sure if it offers that on the back of the DVR - I dont have it in front of me right now to check. I's say your best bet would probably be to buy a system with sufficient cameras.

The quick answer is Yes...but it may not be the best approach. I have done this in situations different types of camera systems are running on the same location. It would be helpful to know more about your needs.

The 8 channel you can add up to four additional cameras. Its' a great system.

Foscam maybe, I am not sure. There is an app on IOS called Live cameras that will give you multiple screens and control over all your cameras.

No. A 4 camera system has only 4 connectors, thus you cannot add more cameras.

Yes you can, with both the front and back cameras, but the picture quality is not great either way. For kids, it's ok, not so much for what I wanted it for.
