The CV65 camera is ideal for monitoring your children, your home, your retail outlet and more. The Clearvu 65 is an outdoor color camera with a resolution of 330 TV lines and with 15 infrared LEDs. The LEDs allow you to see what is happening even in the dark up to six feet away as the camera automatically switches to night vision. The metal casing and mounting bracket provide durability and weather resistance, not to mention style. The camera is also wall or ceiling mountable addin (more…)

Great for the price
I have to give this 4 starts. Easy to hook up, works great, good color,
seems to be within specs.
This is a good camera for $50 but it does have some limitations that more expensive cameras do not suffer from. The picture is decent, nothing special, and the night vision is OK for about 10-15′…but the lack of a wide angle lens makes this camera not very usable for monitoring areas like your front door. You need to mount it at a far distance to get a wide field of view and since its nightvision is only fair that kills its performance.
All in all, decent unit for $50, but the nightvision performance and narrow field of view really hurt when compared to CCD cams like Topica’s. Good for a CMOS camera but no match for a slightly (OK..over twice the price) more expensive CCD camera.

Junk, Junk, Junk
Junk, Junk, Junk. Don’t waste your time buying this camera. Mine was bad from day 1. I sent it back to SVAT and after a month, they sent me a whole new unit.
This is my first security cam purchase. Installation could not have been easier. The 60 feet of cable was more than enough to pull through the attic and through a 1/2″ hole for the connector to pass through at the installation location. Video quality is great, and the sound quality is much better than would have expected (I can even pipe in bird songs from outside). The little camera feels very sturdy in its machined aluminum housing. No problems with the adjustment.
Night vision range is okay if you install within about 10 feet of the subject.
I’m very happy with it, especially the price.

good enough for short term
I’ve had this for about 15 months. It is useless now. The field is completely washed out and software adjustments don’t correct.

Impressive
This was my first foray into CCTV and I must say the functionality of this little camera was impressive.
This has to be one of the best deals for a color camera that has night vision capabilities. I am completely satisfied with this camera. Very solid housing, plenty of cable included and good quality for the price. Worth every penny, plan on purchasing several more.

SVAT CV65 Review
This is an ok camera good construction,easy adjustment,easy installation.
Down side,the glowing red led’s are a dead give-a-way at night, not a very good camera for home…

Monochrome
During the day, the camera displays colors that are not the actual colors: Red is orange, gray is green. The display of reminds you of the first monitors made; green.

Sure BEATS Wireless!
After a failure in less than 3 weeks with a NEW wireless ASTAK Multi Camera system I have learned a lot. Maybe I should list them as I found them.

Outstanding in every way, easily worth the low price.
I bought this camera for my store. Not only does it see & hear everything happening, it also picks up what goes on right out front.

You get what you pay for
Setup and mounting was easy, it comes with plenty of extra wire. Daytime picture isn’t so great and there is no focus so what you have it what you will always have.

the camera installs easy enough.. and the picture quality is very good even the night vision… but the only down side was the it doesnt give wide enough picture…
