Foscam, Fosbaby Baby Monitor, 720P, IR, H264 + 8G BSD Card (foscamwa.com.au) Free Ship $109.99

20

I have been looking into IP cams to use with my Synology NAS as a security camera. I came across this and bang for buck, its pretty loaded with features, 1MP resolution, H.264, wireless, FTP, standalone AP + wireless connectivity. While this is more targeted at being a baby monitor (that's ok because we have one of those too) I suspect I will be be able to get it working with the NAS.

It doesn't have PTZ (Pan, tilt zoom) even though it looks like it is, PTZ is manual.

Cheapest on-line elsewhere is $139,plus this has free shipping and an 8GB SD card!!

The Second YouTube review implies it's better quality that the FI9821W V2 which I was originally looking at. They have a good price on those too if you are interested in a PTZ camera http://www.foscamwa.com.au/foscam-fi9821w-hd-720p-h264-indoo…

Not my first post - bring forth the trolls!!

edit: Blue sold out but pink available again.

    Hi all,

    Please note that this is a Foscam Sanctioned Promotion and will be ending tonight on 05/02/2015 12:00:00. Offer exists while stocks are available. :)

    • Hi Rep, thanks for joining in :) There is also a promo on the site for a 3 meter extension with each purchase > $19. Does this apply to this camera or just those with a standard 5VDC power supply?

      • Hi the 3m extension cables do not apply to fosbaby Because the fosbaby uses a usb charger instead of the usual 5v or 12v power charger.

        However the 8 gb micro-sd card is still included in the fosbaby deal

    still ok if i use this outdoor ? (covered from sun and rain) ie above front door

    • Hi there,

      In theory yes, although the IR chip is designed more for indoor areas where the light spectrum isn't as huge as outdoors.

      I would suggest you go for the FI9853EP mini dome (POE) or FI9851P mini dome (wireless) because it looks much better but if you are looking for p/t functions, grab the FI9821P which is the upgraded version of FI9821W with a newer IR chip.

      Note: The FI9805W/FI9805E ,FI9853EP & FI9828W are proper weather-proof outdoor cameras.

  • Meh, pretty pricey for a 1mp camera. (Crap pic quality).
    Grab a decent Hikvision 3mp camera, it'll cost a bit more but will be much better.

    Grab one on AliExpress for about $145 shipped.

    • can your brand connect to synology NAS?

        You've never heard of HikVision cameras??
        Do a search. They can record to NAS / iSCSI / etc.

        Read that link I posted.

        Hi, Foscam cameras can connect to any NAS.

        I guess your question is more on whether synology's build in camera surveillance supports Foscam cameras out of the box.

        This is more dependent on each NAS manufacturer to support the models in their software as the Foscam APIs are available to developers (including synology's development team).

    • Hi,

      The Fosbaby is designed to be a baby monitor and contains features like temperature sensors, lullaby functions etc. It also comes with a 2 year warranty, cheaper in this current promo, shipped from Australia.

      A review of the product can be found on youtube —> (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMgwazvSs6g)

  • Hi all,

    Blue Fosbaby have sold out!

    We have revised the website so that pink Fosbabys are selling at the same price. $109.99

    Free shipping and 8 Gb micro-sd card included.

    Promotion ends tonight midnight.

    • hi rep, can we not backorder the blue one ?

      • Hi sorry,

        The promotion ends tonight midnight.

  • for those who wants the blue or green, these guys are selling for the same price as well http://www.foscamaustralia.com.au/

  • Any great deals on the Foscam FI8910W and / or Foscam FI9821W V2?

    • Hi Twisty,

      The FI8910W is currently selling at 89.99 and comes with free 3m power extension cords.

      The FI9821W v2 selling at $129.99 but I would recommend going for the new FI9821P model priced at $127.99 for a limited period. ( it also comes with 3m power extension cords and 8 GB micro SD card)

      • What's the difference?

        And that's the best price for us ozbarginers?

        • Well, The FI9821P is a newer upgrade of the popular FI9821W v2.

          There was also an upgrade to the buildin IR chip for the FI9821P and comes with plug and play technology.

          I cannot provide a better price right now as promotions need to be sanctioned by Foscam before being broadcast but I can offer price matches if you find a better price from an AU retailer including the 3m extension cables and micro-sd card.
