Got a deal on some used cameras

The c-store thats part of the casino here decided to upgrade their security camera setup.

So, I asked what they were gonna do with the old cameras, and heard back today that I could have 3 of them.

When I got them they were still in their outdoor enclosure and was told to take em as is.

Well I didnt say no and brought em back over to look at em.

Inside the camera looks to be a no name unit.

Here are some pics of the cameras.

Any idea what kind they may be Nick?

Re: Got a deal on some used cameras

Well I have tested them now.

One has very blury resolution, so Im thinking its no good.

The other two are good, but they are like Nick said very narrow focused.

They also appear to not be the highest definition cameras either.

The color seems very washed out and on diagonal lines you can see where its jagged instead of smooth.

At this point it still looks like my little 30 dollar logitech usb camera is better than the security cams I have.

At least I have the outdoor enclosures.
