So how long have you had it out like that exposed to the elements? Mine is also mounted outdoors for about 8 months now, however not exposed like yours.

yeah thats the most brave place Ive seen it.. mine just turned a year old on the patio and no problem.. other than it needs WDR very badly where I have it installed.

if it lasts out there then ive been quite conservative about this, but then again YMMV

About two month. ´First in heavy rainfall, now in havy snowfall. I think I will tie a adhaesiv tape around the body and the holder. Hope that helps. Funny: the wall mount bracket has a gasket and is Waterproof :)

The bracket is designed to be used with a variety of cameras, many of which were designed with IP67 ratings. Keep us posted on how it handles the weather over time.

That's amazing, and no changes in video quality? Been debating on moving mine to a corner where its more susceptible to seeing a little rain/snow. It will still be under the roof eaves but less protection than where its at now.

Yeah I would use some type of seal on the base of the camera. Especially where the SD card cover and bottom cover are located. Then use a little more around the base after it's mounted on that bracket. But that's just me.
