It was still very grainy and more blob like then I would have wanted but there was enough focus on it along with how short it is compared to the fence that I'm pretty sure it's a cat.Sharahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07044200899014890401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16505569.post-28711040130883150192010-12-13T13:31:07.056+00:002010-12-13T13:31:07.056+00:00I agree with Syd; even for webcams, that is a bloo...I agree with Syd; even for webcams, that is a bloody lousy camera. Low resolution, spherical aberration, crap focus; the poxy thing exhibits every fault of low-end cheap garbage.<br /><br />Go out and buy something like a Samsung Techwin camera from somewhere like http://www.buythis.co.uk/ and you can get an autofocus, day/night camera with double the resolution AND decent night vision capability. Pipe that to a recorder or (if you want to get fancy) a computer, and you'll get miles better pictures.<br /><br />You still won't see any pumas, mind.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16505569.post-13852816544585485642010-12-11T19:54:16.352+00:002010-12-11T19:54:16.352+00:00If that is the best photo Tim can get from his sec...If that is the best photo Tim can get from his security camera then I would respectfully suggest that he replaces it with a 1950's Kodak 'Brownie'.<br />With regard to the image. Using "ArcSoft PhotoImpression 4" which is by no means a top end image editing package (it came FREE with my cheap digital still camera), I got the creatures head enlarged to about 20 times the original size and would definitely agree that it is a fox. The snout does seem a little shortened, but put that down to Tim's low grade equipment. Poor quality lenses often distort the image.Sydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15633341353878192556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16505569.post-9012322494503384472010-12-11T18:20:19.529+00:002010-12-11T18:20:19.529+00:00Word seems a very odd choice to open a picture.

No image processing software evr written is going to show anything in this, not if it were run by a collaboration of JPL, the FBI and NASA. And why is the image so lo-res? 15KB seems small even for a security camera, unless it was compressed when it was emailed. Don't waste any time on this one.Chris Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13152936794462003594noreply@blogger.com
