Had the same question initially, camera sure is well hidden;), but must be the view from the garage camera that looks back to front door.

Job well done.

Thanks, yeah the front door camera is the first three pictures. The other three are the driveway facing camera.

Install went pretty well. Very happy with them and Blue Iris.
I know this is an old thread, but if you're still active here would you mind sharing what lens size those cameras were? They're pretty wide so somewhere between 2.8 and 4mm.

Thanks for replying. I thought it looked narrower than 2.8mm. I'm toying with some cameras for my sister's house and it's a very similar design. She actually has to get HOA approval before she can put up cams.

It's certainly a trade off between wide coverage and more detail, the plus side is anybody that notices your cameras can't tell easily if you've got a 2.8mm or 6 mm lens.
