I really don't know exactly. But is a fix camera. If you want to see I can send you a picture of one of my cameras. Just send me an email address.

The camera is at an angle. I was able to shim the opposite side of the smoke detector mounting base to increase the horizontal perspective by several degrees. I can see an extra 15 feet or more by making this adjustment. This is a low end camera with no night vision. The resolution is diminished over greater distances. I still like mine anyway.

I recently purchased the Simply Monitored 807 PKG equipped with BL-3200 cameras. The Simply Monitored web site list the specification of these cameras with a viewing angle: 75.8°.

why do u want a view finder? I have an old S110 and I can never recall ever using the view finder. I want the 40D but my wife says no. So I'm thinking about setteling for the 790IS. The rest look like cheap plastic.

Both the back and front camera's give about the same range on the view. I have both hooked up and if you use the screen to look at them the back camera uses a little less than have the screen. But if you download the card onto your computer, the recorded views are the same range. The range is slightly less than 180.

I bought the ip cam viewer app and was able to set it up see it on the same network but once I leave the network it wont work. Something about the ip address not being static but always changing. I was unsuccessful in setting up the record either since I'm not an IT guy. I think unless you really know networking it's pretty complicated for a noob like myself. There are couple of free ip camera viewers out there so check it out. I'm able to view, pan, and tilt with the one I got. Just wish I knew how to take advantage of the full potential. Sorry I couldn't have been a better help.

Hello Michael,I think one need to play with the different viewing angles and see what works best. Sometimes I switch angles because of wanting to change my sitting position, other times, it depends on what application I'm actually using wit hthe product. As was mentioned already, a monitor mountign arm works wonders in finding that perfect viewing angle.- C.

The monitor only has two positions, open and closed. When open, it is only at that same angle that you see pictured. It seems like a good angle for general use, and all of the reviews say the viewing angles of the screen are very good, although I haven't seen it for myself. I am also wondering whether the limitation has been problematic for anyone who has used the device for a while.

Hi,I sent mine back. It was hard to focus and also if any light was on nearby like you said about the porch light I couldn't see anything.

I would guess more like 140 - 150 degree viewing angle. Really have never measured it as it hasn't been an issue. --- Camera has worked and performed as advertised and we are pleased with it. Concerns over the dinky wires turned out apparently not to be justified. It really has been trouble free.

Dear Stan,I just purchased the S10 as a replacement camera and generally love it. However, the lack of an eyelevel viewfinder is a huge drawback. I spent a week in Mexico at the beach and just couldn't for sure see what I was shooting. The good news is that I shot anyway and got some really awesome action shots of sea birds and ocean wildlife. I've learned to view from the side so I don't see a bright reflection of myself in the LCD. I'm sure it does not help that I need reading glasses (the I generally don have on outside) to see close objects so that blurs the LCD too.

If you can find a location that is sheltered and doesn't have large temperature swings throughout the year you would probably be okay. I have 3 of these cameras on my front and back (covered) porches and they have held up great. If you are looking for something you can mount on the side of your house you will want to look elsewhere.

You will first need to open up the camera's glass dome; inside the dome you'll find 2 chrome knobs located right underneath the camera lens. You'll need to twist on both knobs to adjust the camera's viewing angle (40-115degrees) and viewing distance (40-120feet)

Pretty good and you can adjust it. This camera has a wide-angle lens... i found that the street lights\house lights down the street and can throw it off a bit. I wish I had paid the extra few dollars and bought the 3MP... my other cams are 3MP and the quality difference is impressive. You can see the raindrops hitting the driveway with the 3MP.

Hello man, front camera angle, I am not sure, but it's amazingly good, I would say +/- 170 degrees. Quality is amazing. The back camera I have not installed yet.

The camera angle can be adjusted after mounting, but it's a tedious process and would be less frustrating if you can have someone assisting you. Adjusting the camera, getting back in the car to see the change, getting back out to adjust again, etc. can become aggravating after a bit. Place an object 3 feet from the edge of your bumper and use it as a measuring tool being sure it aligns with the third 'distance line' on your monitor. Again, it would be much easier if you have someone adjusting the camera while you sit inside and watch the monitor as the changes are made!

Simple, why not just return the "Cam" for a complete refund backed by a full warranty with it? I just wished THIS particular cam had a wider view area, color is alittle off as well. (grn"s) I run shielded cable, power at the cam install site as well. Could drop down to a 650 tvl with more view area for a hundred bucks less to, with color! Just a suggestion?! Bv
