Both cameras record and save 720p HD and 1280 x 720 HD pictures and have memory card slots to enable recordings easily transferred to computers or other devices.

For added nighttime picture and video quality both cameras include on-board infrared LEDs, 12 in the Plug & Play and eight in the Pan & Tilt.

And by downloading the free SwannEye HD app you can stream live video or view recorded videos and photos via any iOS, PC or Android device.

Vice president global marketing Jeremy Stewart says for peace of mind, the app sends email notification when the cameras detect motion.

Another feature of the app is that it can remotely control the 350 degree horizontal and 100 degrees vertical motion of the Pan & Tilt by a smartphone or tablet.

Syncing to a smartphone or tablet is easily achieved via a unique QR code that comes with both cameras.

Both cameras include built-in microphones so you can hear every sound and conversation happening in real time or in playback mode.

The Pan & Tilt camera also includes an audio input jack and speaker that enables you to communicate with intruders via your smartphone or tablet’s microphone, Stewart says.

Both cameras are easy to install and come with ceiling and wall mounting hardware.
