> 24 hourFrom what I can tell so far, the higher your camera, the more this could offer in protection. The mounting surface has a foam seal going all the way around but it doesnt protrude that much to be compressed much. In my situation, stucco, I may want to add sealant around. Not that its necessary really but why allow water to go behind and possibly enter the wall where screws are. The inside of these covers are matte black. All hardware is included. Individually wrapped in bubble wrap bags and received well protected. Looking forward to installing these.

> 24 hourOur outdoor cameras are promised to weather the elements. They do but suffer for it. Performance is compromised and life-span is shortened. Its harsh conditions outside in the best of weather! A camera shield is an absolute necessity. These are generously sized, solid, very durable, and will weather the storms unphased in that there is nothing to damage or break. These indestructible shields take the beating that is now spared your cameras. Be sure that you dont block the full range of the camera with where you place the shield. When you get one set up right, then you can replicate for all the remaining cameras. It is fast and easy. And when the harsh weather hits, which includes unrelenting SUNSHINE, youll take comfort in knowing that the shields are absorbing the all of it. Its enough that the cameras are still subjected to extreme humidity or drought conditions, that will test their ability at being suitable for outdoors. I wont punish my cameras if I can help it. I count on them for SAFETY!

> 24 hourThese are much bigger in person than what the site showed. I have multiple cameras that i want to shade and protect from the elements and this is so perfect. The back part that gets attached to wall has a built in soft gasket to seal the shade on the wall. The outside is white and the inside is black so light does not bounce around and make “noise” for your camera. It is thick quality plastic, not a thin brittle hood.

> 24 hourI was looking for a sun and rain shield for out outdoor cameras and found this. Even though our cameras are rated as waterproof and for outdoors I think a shield like this really helps them to weather the elements like rain and direct sunlight which will wear them down after a while. The packaging was very simple, some plastic wrap and a cardboard box, easy to open. These shields are easy to mount and install, it took only a few minutes to climb up and get them anchored in to our outer wall. Do be sure to check your camera if it has antennas to ensure you get proper clearance when panning or tilting the camera. Once we had that set proper these things stayed in well and its helped with some glare we were getting when using the cameras. Very solid protection for you outdoor cameras!

> 24 hourThese covers look and feel solid. They not only protect the cameras from snow, rain, and ice, they also help a bit with keeping the sun out of the camera lens

> 24 hourThis product is great for protecting outdoor security cameras from the elements. They are very durable and were so simple to install. Just a few screws and you’re good to go. These protect my outdoor cameras from getting wet and also from the sun. These covers do the job and look so nice and neat. A great item to buy with security cams!

> 24 hourNeeded to put a board on power pole to mount to as the plastic is rigid a wouldnt bend to attach. No problem. Also shields camera from security light for better image.

> 24 hourRecently I had the opportunity to order 4 of these Universal Sun Rain Camera Shields in one package. I’ve evaluated a similar shield from another seller, so Im familiar with how good they are. First about this shield, then a quick story. What I liked: Well-built from ABS material. Nice looking with high-gloss white finish. Rubberized water seal on backside. Very durable; I think this shield would even deflect our Texas-sized hail without an issue! Flat black underside greatly reduces any glare and reflections from camera IR lights and spotlights. Easy to mount and includes needed hardware for most wood or brick surfaces. Dimensions accommodate most Ring cameras, most PTZ cameras, all dome cameras, and many bullet cameras providing they arent too long. In using a WI-FI camera with external antenna(s), I normally bend the antenna(s) sideways or down to avoid interference with the shield. Just make sure you maintain adequate WI-FI signal strength. Great price point for the quality of this product. Now a quick story: Ive owned WI-FI security cameras for 5 years and have evaluated 10-12 different brands and camera configurations. Ive always been a huge advocate for protecting ALL outdoor cameras. I was doing a recent evaluation of a PTZ camera ($50-75 price range) which advertised an IP66 weather rating. An IP66 rating normally protects against powerful jets of water from any direction for a 3 min duration. I finished my measurements over an afternoon, but had not yet put my shield over the camera body. That night, it started raining and it rained nearly 3 over 3 days, none heavy but constant. On day 3, the camera quit working. I put a ladder up (clear on day 4), tried to do a manual reset with no success. I opened the rubber seal underneath the camera ball to access the microSD card. At least 1 Tablespoon of water ran out of the camera. I took the camera down; it is entirely dead. Lesson relearned: Don’t wait. If you have a camera exposed outside, it needs protection. Mount your camera under a soffit (under the eve) or use a shield like this one. Summary: Strongly recommend, thanks for reading my review

> 24 hourI have a solar camera with the little antennas. And well there isnt enough room for its antenas. Also these are pretty huge so you have to consider the place where you will be placing it. Overall they are sturdy and I can see these working for smaller cameras.

> 24 hourThe material is thick, the size is generous for coverage over cameras. Much more substantial than metal ones, definitely more pleasing on the aesthetic side and sturdier than thin metal. Each one of the shades in the set comes with 5 screws and matching plastic anchors, though only 4 screws are needed for mounting to the wall: great to have extras, saves the trip to the hardware store when dropping one or two on installing or for later if needed. Another nice touch is the gasket on the whole wall-adhering surface: can achieve a perfect seal to the wall, no water leaking underneath to the camera wires. And, what I like the most, the black surface has low reflectivity to avoid ghosting or other alterations in the camera images caused by stray light. Overall, these are the best shades Ive ever seen. I am looking to install these on the siding of the house, thus I need to fit in some flat pieces of wood for the basis. Not hard to do, but I had to put the project on hold until warmer weather for gluing and staining. The one possible drawback I foresee is that the screws are the Phillips head kind. I hope they last and never rust, but many such screws that I had in outdoor fixtures did corrode over the long run, and its usually the head that becomes clogged with rust and makes removal hard. Phillips head are far better than slot head ones, still hex heads are the best bet for anything thats likely to corrode. I cannot subtract any star from the rating for this concern, though: its a matter of years for such issues to develop IF they do, and worst that can happen Ill have to replace the screws before it becomes hard to remove them.
