 Great product and great support July 7, 2008

Works great. Had some issues connecting to a Macintosh but with the assistance from their technical support it was nailed down very quickly and I can now access from outside my home network. All features can be configured via. the Mac from the administration interface the only things you can't access w/out Boot Camp and/or Parallels is the zoom/audio features. If you have a newer Mac that can run Windows then your golden.
For configuration, I followed the steps provided in an earlier post and confirmed that they would work with the BL-C131A by emailing Panasonic. Panasonic's tech. support was great and very responsive to my needs.
With the motion detection feature I was able to obtain photos of a visiting black bear in our yard while also triggering email when FedEx/UPS delivers packages.

Overall good product, would purchase another. Offers dual-axis control for a much lower price then its competitors. Internet cameras in general have very small image sensors, this leads to poor image quality compared to other digital cameras, the BL-C131A is no different. The on-board camera software offers very fine control however documentation is very poor and it is basically a trial and error process when setting up advanced features.
Good Webcam but Great Tech Support July 3, 2008

I bought one of these to monior my house while on vacation. The reviews suggested that it was the best for the price. The set up was also supposed to be the easiest of the lot and it turned out to be relatively simple until I got to the internet set up. Using a Mac with a Time Capsule router was not the "easy as pie" operation that I had hoped for. It was more like French torte with cream and chocolate sauce. I began gathering the packing material for a return, and made the cursory call to tech support. I've never had good phone tech and did not expect anything different this time. I was wrong. Best ever. The guy walked me through the not-too-obvious steps and within less than an hour was up and running. The phone tech was worth the price of the product itself!
Great Camera for the price June 30, 2008

After reviewing the reviews on this camera I decided to give it a shot. Let me tell ya, this is a great camera for the price! I have mine looking out a window (not recommended but it works fine on clean windows!) on to my front porch to record motion. It does a great job capturing video and images and then sending that to where ever you like. I love the wireless capability! You might want to have a friend help you set it up for the internet if you are not tech savy but once you get it going it works great. You can control this camera from anywhere in the world with an internet connection and see what is going on at your home. The sound function is also nice but I did not feel the need to use it since I was monitoring outside. I could say more but there are plenty of other reviews out there. For what you get for your money, I would recommend this camera. Although it is "wireless", you still need to be close to an electrical outlet to power the camera but since it is suppose to be for indoors, that should not pose to big of a problem. UPDATE: My camera recently caught a bunch of kids that have been trespassing and ringing my doorbell for months. The police and local crime watch were able to identify the kids and cite them!! Sweet, Sweet, justice!! Thank you Amazon and Panasonic!
kdan's review June 24, 2008
Nice cam, I purchased two, movement is a little jerky and I never could get the zoom feature to operate correctly. but the cam as a whole does everything else I expected of it. cust. service is very good. As for recommendation I would recommend it.
