Night Vision and HD for a good price
The night vision is automatically when he notices that it is too dark for the camera to see everything still good. The stream on your phone is automatically in night vision. When the night vision turns on, go on camera two red lights on.
This ensures that the dome is easy to see in the dark. A potential intruder has no trouble to notice the camera. If security is the Sitecom Dome therefore not very discreet. On the other hand it can help to deter potential burglars. And if there is still something stolen, you have razor sharp.

Voices and other sounds are well understood.

The cons
But the camera also has some disadvantages. The Dome you night and day can keep your home or another location in the holes. Hang it somewhere in your home where you want footage, then link the camera app on your phone and you have 24/7 picture of everything that happens in your home.
Sounds easy, but still disappointing. The dome camera should in fact be linked to your router via an Ethernet cable, in order to stream the image to your phone. When the camera is a CAT5e network cable of five meters. With this you can connect the camera to the router.
The camera has no power from the Ethernet cable, but also need a power cable. The Ethernet cable can only ensure that the camera is connected to the Internet and the adapter ensures, you guessed it, the camera has power. Internet via WiFi is not possible.
This means that your camera should always hang near your router, or you need to purchase a longer cable itself and install through your house. All in all not as easy as it seems.
The long network ensures that at first sight the camera is very striking. Take for example a burglar who is ignorant about the camera; he or she can easily see where the camera hangs through the network cable attached to the camera. If you want to hide the camera so good, you should take extra effort to make inconspicuous cable. That is, if you do not want your stuff to be stolen and your camera.
Another major disadvantage of the dome is that the camera suggests that he has control over the app, like its smaller brother; Twist. Yet this is not the case, which is very unfortunate. The camera angle is to adapt, but you must do it manually.

The app works on the whole very good, only when installing the application event had trouble signing in to the WiFi network.
The app has a simple layout and is easy to use, even for those not so well able to handle technology. Also, the app push notifications when the camera picks up movement, and moment you are not in the app. This makes the camera ideal for those want to keep the house in his eye while he / she is away from home. The camera will unfortunately does not give a very clear confirmation whether he will actually do so.

Sitecom Dome WLC-3000 review - Overall a solid Cam Home
Sitecom Dome WLC-3000 is an excellent camera. He does what he says he does and thereby provides good quality. However, the Dome also has its drawbacks. The app is for instance not very responsive and the camera suggests that you can control it via the app, so you can not do.
The quality of the camera stream is high quality, both picture and sound. The night vision camera is a nice touch that is very useful for keeping an eye on, for example, a dark nursery.
