Yes, it DOES look very nice....good job.
Was the pigtail on the Lorex so short it prevented you from rotating the base 180 degrees so as to place its cable slot on the bottom vs on the top of the base to help prevent water ingress?

It does look like that flanged has been caulked with clear silicone sealant.

this was done at both back yard corners of house.
Yes, pretty neat.
And my thoughts echo @TonyR on using the bottom entry of the camera base, to give a drip loop for both the base entry and the camera body entry point.
Despite the sealant showing, every little helps ...

thanks guys. I suppose i should've went into bottom. It crossed my mind but i decided to keep the wire at the top so it would be less visible from underneath. oh well, next time.

what type of conduit did you use (e.g - schedule 40; 1/2"?)?
