1. Dropcam Wi-Fi Wireless Video Monitoring Camera

2. The Good
The Dropcam HD WiFi is a Wi-Fi-enabled high-resolution Webcam with two-way sound capabilities. It offers easy setup and flexible mounting options, and you can view a remote video feed over the Internet or on your iOS or Android mobile device via free Dropcam apps. There's no service fee for basic live viewing. DVR functionality is available with a paid plan and recorded video is stored in the cloud.

3. The Bad
You can't tilt or swivel the camera remotely (the lens is fixed) and you may experience some lag with the video and audio, depending on the speed of your Internet service. The need for AC power precludes true wireless operation. Also, there's no native iPad app.

4. The Bottom Line
The wireless Dropcam HD Wi-Fi is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a light-duty Web-enabled remote security camera that emphasizes quick and easy setup.
