As described.

Not bad for the price.
Picture quality not bad but colour not great. Good to have zoom facility Very sensitive focus adjustment. I used this as a webcam for zoom and for that use it worked well.

Picture quality is great, connectivity and adjustments not so much
So, firstly, this is not a security camera with a WiFi connection or a sd card slot, it has to be plugged into a usb slot for power and connectivity (usb 2.0 will do).Pros: surprisingly good image quality though autofocus isn't amazing it serves well as a basic feed as seen in the second picture it can capture near and further away things at the same time without a full lens flare from bright daylight. Doubt it'll do well at night as there are no IR sensors so not suitable for nighttime applications either.- Small enough considering the big lens on it, definitely not ultra small, and if you want it as a hidden camera for your own house security youll have to get creative as it's still sizable enough to warrant some attention.-Comes with a long usb cable pre attached which is slightly more than 2 metres it seems which is great if you'd need it, though I see this as more suitable to have with a raspberry pi nearby-Compatible and plug and play with windows laptopCons: The usb connection was a bit spotty when the usb plug is moved at the start but on a second test this stopped, so maybe not a permanent issue.- Adjusting the focus etc requires a tight grip ot small screwdriver and turning the screws manually... this is a bit of a process, I had hoped it'd be OK with fingers alone but you need a good grip which is hard with the dial for focus as it's a bit bl9cked by the camera body itself, makes it hard to turn.- I can see IR written on the camera but nighttime vision seems non existent when tested in dark settings.- While it is plug and play a lot of the settings to use the camera require a random 3rd party program installed on windows which for security reasons is never nice. Would suggest using your firewall to block outgoing connections from the program. But I didn't want to install it for security reasons, if you wouldn't either then likely no need to get this camera since you won't be able to access it's settings properly.Overall not sure either can recommend this as a security camera so not sure why anyone would want one. Usb cameras could just be a webcam if you need something like that, and they would likely be more adjustable etc and easier to use with the stock windows camera app.
