DropCam Pro With Cloud Recording

DropCam Pro With Cloud Recording

DropCam (the company) has an updated version of DropCam (the camera). The new DropCam Pro is a dual-band Wi-Fi video camera that includes two-way audio, 8X digital zoom, night vision, and intelligent alerts (receive notifications via email or text). The lens of the camera has a 130-degree field of view, so you can capture an entire room and then zoom in remotely if you want to see something in detail. (Baby crib, anyone?) An optional subscription-based service saves either the last seven days or 30 days of your video to the cloud, letting you review the video later at your leisure. 

You can even clip and save sections of video to your desktop or share links to saved clips with friends. The Cloud Recording service for one camera runs $99/year for seven days of video storage and $299/year for 30 days; there is a 50% discount for Cloud Recording that you add to additional cameras. The camera itself retails for $199.
