Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Q-See QSC48030 High Resolution Weatherproof CCD Camera w/80ft of Night Vision (Color)

Customer Review: You get what you pay for.
Summary: 3 Stars

I purchased this camera to round out the four slots on my DVR... I have 2 LTS cameras and an Alphasonic, I would say the night vision capability of the Q see is the same as the comparable Alphasonic ( both are inferior to the LTS ) The Q see did go up in less than 1/2 the time of the LTS though. That being said, my only real gripe with the Q SEE is that about once a week the darn thing goes scrambled... I cant really describe it in words but basically you loose signal and need to interrupt the power ( I just unplug then replug it) I wish it would actually cause a surge or something so that it would set off the alarm on my DVR so I could get it fixed in a timely manner.

Customer Review: Real Disappointment
Summary: 1 Stars

I bought this to replace another camera which was a few years old and not providing a sharp enough picture to distinguish any facial features to deal with acts of vandalism in my neighborhood. Because the two line connections on this camera are right next to this camera instead of at the DVR like my previous two cameras were, the installation was a series of ladder climbs and hole drilling to pull two connectors through the window frame. After all the effort, the picture is just as undistinguished as the camera I replaced and there was no benefit from spending $137 for this camera. My $49 first alert system produced clearer pictures with better facial recognition.

Customer Review: Solid Item
Summary: 4 Stars

Camera is solid and reliable. I have had it in place overlooking the front door for two weeks. We have had some wind (40+mph) snow and lots of rain. Currently, cold, 20 degrees Image is solid, with good detail.
NO adjustements for focus or zoom. Night time image is in black and white. The IR leds have a slight glow at night, but they do lite up the field of view well. My range is 25 feet. Easy to install, two connections, power and video. Comes with a basic mounting arm that is fully adjustable. Also, 60 feet of cable that is video and power together. Long enought to reach from one end of the house to the other.
I will be buying more of these cameras.

Customer Review: Regarding occlusion while under IR
Summary: 4 Stars

@Gregg Cornett -- I experienced similar clouding under IR in one of my cameras. The fix was to clean it using a solution tailored for optics (just the cleaning agent and nothing else that leaves a residue) and lens tissue. The camera was restored to its original clarity. My theory is that this camera got misted over during a fogging period and subsequently dried leaving a fine residue on the face of the exterior glass. Incoming light would diffuse around it (like spots on one's glasses). Outgoing IR light would scatter and cause lens flair. When I say fine residue, I mean that it would appear clean to the naked eye.

This solution worked for me. YMMV

Customer Review: QS2359c is better product
Summary: 2 Stars

I both both model Q-See QSC 48030 (higher price model) and cheaper version Q-See QS2350C (Cheaper price one)
Compare between these two. Cheaper Model QS2350C has more realistic image. Image look much better than Higher price one. So I bought 2 more of cheaper model. Power wiring is different between 2 models.
QS2350C come with 120v plug at ~ 3 ft. length. Video wiring extended ~50 ft. to video card.
Qsc 48030 Both power/data bundle in one cable with 50 ft. cable. at the end split into 2 wiring for power and video data. Power at the end with 120v plug

I rather buy QS2350C than QSC 48030
