The 2mp version is fantastic. Super clear. Highly responsive.
It does in fact have a 36x optical zoom, not 20.
Switching it to the optimum video mode for your DVR is easy. Just read the instructions, is done via preset command numbers, sent one after another. It ships in the lowest resolution setting for compatibility with older systems.
DO PLAN ON USING THE POWER ADAPTER IT COMES WITH. It's 4amps for the 2mp and 5amp for the 5mp. It does need all of that for the impressive IR lighting. A short 14 gauge extension is fine.
Get yourself a corner bracket to get the best coverage it of this type of camera. I can look down the street both directions as far as I can see and view most of my yard and zoom to the creek behind my house.
Pictures attached of min and max zoom.
The Jeep in the picture is moving at about 40 mph.
On a side note, I received an open box product. I tested before installing and it worked fine so I don't really have any issue with it, just saying..
Side note, the 5mp camera is NOT compatible with 5mp lite DVRs. Ask me how I know!

works great, problem is the camera requires more power than dual wire camera/pw cables can provide.
works great, but the problem is the camera requires more power than most dual wire camera/pw cables can provide. I read this early and plugged a power supply directly to the camera. I ran an extension cord to the p/s plugged to the camera. I didn"t use the power cord part of the siamese video/power cable. I have been running a continuous scan for over a year flawlessly. If you take this into account doing your wiring plan you are likely to have a great camera install.
I constructed the sofit mount using a electrical box cover and a short piece of conduit.

Easy Installation
This was a drop in replacement for a much more expensive model from another manufacturer, on an analog DVR! The only issue I had was when first installing, it was rotating at a high rate of speed. A quick email to customer service revealed how to access the camera menu to control the rotation. I am VERY PLEASED!
