> 3 dayWhy doesn’t this lens come with the monitor!! It’s a must have. If you decide you want this monitor that is The monitor constantly beeped and is always running out of barriers, but the sound must have finally broken itself so it no longer beeps, and I just have to keep it plugged in all the time. Dumb! I’ve wished for a different monitor since day 1

> 3 dayLook no further...this is the best baby monitor Weve tried. The sound quality is great with no feedback issues, and the picture is clear. I especially like the option of changing camera lenses to fit each room. My son is almost 3 and does not always stay in his bed at nap time, so I like that I can pan the room and see what kind of trouble he may be getting into! Overall Im very satisfied with this monitor. This is our third try (had a Motorola and babies r us prior) and by far the best one! Dont waste time on other monitors, this one is worth every cent!

> 3 dayThis lens is good during the day providing sharp wide picture of the baby room. Unfortunately, it is absolutely useless at night even with low light on in the room. I have purchased Infant Optics DXR-8 baby video monitor for my sons room because it included night vision feature allowing us to keep track on him without disturbing his sleep. The original lens that came with the camera does a great job, but the provides limited field of view only covering about a 1/4 of the 9 x 9 room. Wide angle lens allows us to see most of the room and actually provides sharper picture compared to the original lens. However, it seems to block/reflect the IR light at night making the monitor too dark to see anything.

> 3 dayWow! I ordered based on the reviews and I am very happy I did it. It works great! The picture of this Infant Optics DXR-8 monitor is very clear and it picks up the sound very well. I can hear my baby boy breathing. I added another camera with the wide angle lens for my four year old daughters room and I can say it is well worth the investment. I can see her entire room. I wish I could see both rooms in the same time but the 10 seconds alternate view works too. Another great thing is the battery life, amazing. Overall a great product! It looks like this company listened to the customers complaints about the competitors products and tried to build the perfect video monitor. A little over $300 (including the two year protection plan) might seem expensive but I did not mind spending a little more for the best video monitor out there.

Greater than one weekIts good, not amazing. Definitely adds the benefit of being able to see an entire room which is very helpful for the playroom, but it does come with a compromise in quality. Picture isnt very clear (although clear enough), especially when kiddo isnt very close to the lens. Still, a better alternative to the regular lens for our family & Im grateful for the increased perspective.

Greater than one weekI got this lens since my daughter is now a toddler and we needed view of her entire room. The night vision wasn’t working so I contacted customer service. I had read older versions had bad night vision but they had fixed the issue. Thankfully their customer service is top notch and they resolved the issue. Night vision works now. It isn’t the greatest clarity but it does the job well enough. I’m happy with their system as a whole.

> 3 dayMy granddaughter recently graduated from her crib to a “Big Girl” bed now. I am such a fan of infant optics products that I purchased the wide lens so that we had full view of her room during playtime, naptime & bedtime. The vision is so clear even at night. No more moving the camera from side to side. Now I can sit and stalk her from one angle. Absolutely recommend this product

> 3 dayIndeed, there is ZERO night vision when using this camera lens. Fortunately, you can still hear the kiddo if he wakes, but it makes the lens pretty darn useless.

> 3 dayWe have twin toddlers and had been using a different baby monitor with two cameras. This worked fine as babies, but they now move so quickly we need to see the entire room at once to make sure everyone is safe. This wide angle lens is a must! Plan ahead so you dont have to buy a second unit like we did - start here!

> 3 dayWorks perfectly. I didnt have any issues with the nighttime quality. Its one of the best images I have seen in a baby monitor. It zooms in and still has a clear image. I can see my daughter face so clearly to the point where I feel comfortable not being near her which is huge for me since she has had medical issues in the past. I need to be able to see her face clearly especially well she sleeps. This lens gives me that peace of mind. Im so tthankful for how much more zoomed in I get and how clear it is. Well worth every penny plus more.
