last update from DHL for me is Atlanta, I'm in Florida, so I'm hoping I can pick it up front my wife's job at lunch time.

We're just about three towns apart and yours took a different route?...interesting. Watch out when you handle your package 'cause that DHL logo sure looks flamin' hot...just sayin'. Kudos to Andy and DHL. :):)
 
Daytime zoomed out all the way view. Still have my motion detect and tripwires set for the middle or else it would have picked this car up sooner...
Make sure to hit 1080p for full size.

Well I intend to keep mine zoomed out permanently just to maximize coverage. How far is it from the camera to the light post in the foreground? Also, how high is the camera? Thanks.

BTW, nice rolling neighborhood you got there...here in central Florida is boringly flat lol. Only places you'll see some serious hill are the landfills...guffaw.

Thanks yeah I love central NC. Perfect terrain and not too far to mountains or beach. My house sits 10' higher than the street, and the camera is under an eve 9' up. So, in total the camera is 19' above the street level at the base of the light post. The post is 100' from the camera and the bottom of my driveway in the middle is 65'.

Hmmm...is it my depth perception that's out of whack or just my eyes playing tricks on me...but that 100' sure looks very close.

My cameras arrived a few minutes ago. Thanks @EMPIRETECANDY for fast shipping. Picked up on 1/4 at 11:31 Hong Cong time, arrived today, 1/5 at 14:52 North Carolina time. Can't wait to get them out.

It's actually 102', but the nearly 20' drop in elevation makes it shorter. If this were golf I'd play it about 12' closer. :)

I requested NTSCs...never got any confirmation whatsoever...never bothered to ask Andy because I knew he was very busy...resigned to the fact that I'd be getting PAL...no big deal...lo & behold...I got NTSC cams!

Thanks, Andy...you're service is first-rate!!!
