Pros: Good picture, good feature set, good construction
Cons: Weak Mac admin support, FTP sometimes works. Still needs better firmware

| timtimtj's Full Review: Toshiba IK-WB11A Webcam |
I've had this camera at remote location for a couple of months. The picture quality is very good however focus is sometimes an issue. Make sure you have a fast Internet connect if you plan on viewing this camera from outside your local network.
The motion detection and recording is hit or miss and I was hoping that the latest firmware (3.02) would fix this...oh well.
I am primarily a Mac user (OS 10.3.x). Even with the latest version, the Java implementation on this platform leaves something to be desired. Some of the admin functions just don't work on the Mac. You might need a PC to do some things.
Now for the good news: If you plan on being on the same local network as the camera, it's great. The tilt and pan feature is good too. Plus, this camera is built well and should stand up to the elements.
