Summary: Best Bang for your buck
Comment: I just purchased and setup 6 of these for a customer. I used 2 1TB HDD's in Raid 1 and 2x80 gig drives also in raid 1 so I had some good redundancy. The camera's are great compared to their little brother the DCS-2100+. The software on the D-Link website is great, you must download it. Stick with a good D-Link Switch and router and everything will work flawlessly. I have over 5 years working with D-Link products and have even written software for D-Link cameras. I see a lot of complaints online but I think most of the issues are user based.

This is a great product at a even greater price. Buy it now!

Summary: Good all around security camera
Comment: I bought this camera after an incident at my house while I was at work. Luckily a neighbor witnessed the incident and helped me recover damages, but I realized that I needed something to watch over my property when I was not at home.

This camera has proven to be a great match for my needs. I have it set up to record to my computer hard drive. It sends me email alerts when it detects motion in the covered video area, which is my driveway. I can easily review the video of anyone who drives down my driveway and what they do in front of my house.

The video quality is great, you can read license plates very easily, and can take snapshots from the videos or export the files to avi format.

One minor complaint is that the exported avi format isn't as good as the source format. But I really haven't had a need to export video from the supplied software application.

The software that comes with the system is great. You can monitor one camera or 16. The software wizards have you up and running in minutes. You can even access live video from your camera over the internet - also real easy to set up and access.

I plan to purchase an additional camera to monitor the back side of my house.

The optional weatherproof outdoor housing unit is of good quality and is recommended for outside use.

The system has been up and running continuously for almost 6 months now with no problems.

Summary: Nice camera with falkey software
Comment: Camera and the web interface work well. But, I had problems with the management software. D-Link said to downlowd v3.20. That worked the first time.

Summary: decent product for the price
Comment: I paid ~$50 under retail for this on some special deal. I wasn't going to spend retail price on it, as I'm on a budget.

I've tried many other units, as I setup a DVR on the parking lot in front of my apartment. I tried a Leadtek capture card with Linux Zoneminder, but the quality wasn't very good. For camera, I used a Q-See infared 420line outdoor b/w camera, with very bad results. The image quality was horrible. I couldn't make out a person's face on camera at ANY distance. The only perk was the night-vision was decent - maybe good if you're ONLY watching for large objects moving.

Okay on the DCS-3220, I'm very happy with it. The 10/100 is a very good feature of the product. I have it in an outside enclosure recording a parking lot. The night vision is very poor when in low-light, but that can be expected. The C-CS mount is good because I plan on getting a zoom lens for ~50 dollars to zoom into certain things. The management interface and program is very good. It is setup to handle 16 of these cameras without any problems - so scaling up is no problem in the future. When recording, this thing eats up alot of disk space. I gave mine a dedicated 300gig drive to put its recordings on. All-in-all, it offers more than I need, which is exactly what I need.

If I can find a need for another in the future, I'll buy another.
