Pros: - Good build quality.
- (Almost) easy to use (I'll specify why in the Cons section)
- CHEAP!
- Nice looking.
- Genious mounting bracket included.
 
Cons: - No wiring schematic, which of the pins on the connector is the ground and which is the supply?
- The image quality is a bit saturated.
- No possibilty to turn off the automatic IR light.
 
Other Thoughts: One strange thing is that the user manual recommends that you use the power supply that is included...What power supply??
So if you have bought this camera, do not have a clue on the polarity of the power connector, and do not want screw up and burn the camera, here is the solution:
CENTER CONNECTOR: +12Vdc
OUTER CONNECTOR: Ground
 
Bottomline: Now that I've showed you how to connect a power supply to the camera, there should not be any doubt about buing this camera.
BUY IT!!

Pros: Great analog camera. It's easy to use, if you have something to capture analog video. It's steel case its very fine. The InfraRed module can be easily taken off. And has not IR filter, which may be very convenient. It may be used for multi-touch projects.
 
Cons: The color quality is not the best, but is good enough. It's a good choice for this price.
 
Other Thoughts: I would like to have a power source within the camera, because the power input socket is not very common.
 
Bottomline: It is a good camera, with a good relation quality vs price. If you are going to do some IR project (you don't want color at all), this is your camera.

Pros: Very cheap price, would cost 40euro here. Seems water proof but I haven't tested.
LEDs adjust automatically thanks to a photosensor on the pcb. Night vision works really well, although it is strange to see things in IR spectrum.
 
Cons: Some colours are over-saturated. Quite chunky for what's in it. The LEDs glow faintly red so not great for hidden security cam apps. IR light goes about 10 feet, not great.
 
Other Thoughts: You can disable the LEDs by removing the cap, unscrewing the pcb and just plugging out the pcb connector.
 
Bottomline: Cheap PAL camera with bonus night vision. Decent quality.

Pros: - Quite cheap
- Construction might indeed be water proof as advertised
- IR-leds adjust automatically depending the lighting conditions
- B/W picture is excellent, a pitch black room and the camera inside produced a fine picture
- Finally, a PAL cam!
 
Cons: - Color picture is a bit "off"
- Big size compared to the other IR-camera sold here. I'd buy the other one if I was installing camera to a car.
- A sligh red glow in the IR-leds, can be seen at dark conditions
 
Other Thoughts:  
Bottomline: Good camera, definitely worth buying
