Video monitor with three cameras?

Hi! Sorry to bring up monitors again but you ladiesnarenthe experts. I'm looking for a video monitor that has three cameras. I only care about audio and video....angle care movement mats are not important to me. I know the Motorola has high reviews, two cameras, and can pan to a degree, but I was hoping to have one camera on each crib.  

 Has anyone used something like this before?

Thank you!

  • I am planning on getting the Motorola at BRU, but I only need two cameras.  I was just looking at it on amazon and you can buy additional cameras separately, so I wonder if you could just buy two additional cameras instead of just one.

  • We have a summers infant you can buy the extra cameras for it. We only have one camera in there room it is more to hear at this point I can tell cries apart. But they did not move to cribs in there room till 7 months. I want to get the Summers Infant one that has the pan tilt zoom so can see all of them.

    We have a Lorex Live Snap (or something like that) and you can have up to four cameras.  I do like it, but have had some issues with the base (the connector where it attaches to the base can come loose and then you can't charge it.)  I think we're on our second or third base.

  • We have the summer infant touch and only one camera. Mounted high on the wall, it will pan and zoom to all three cribs.

    This is what I did too, even though I am expecting triplets we ordered just 1 additional camera and hoping to angle them just right so that we can get a good view of all 3 cribs.... if not, we will have to just get a third camera.

    We have the same one but with two cameras.  We are able to use the 'scan' setting and it will flip back and forth between up to 4 cameras.  I didn't think we needed two cameras but now I'm really glad we have them, they do rotate but it's nice to be able to turn on only one or both of them when we need them.

  • The motorola model that comes with 2 cameras standard can be expanded.  It can have up to 4 cameras.  You can auto scan between the cameras or manually flick between them.

    Each additional camera is $100, though, so its not cheap.

  • my husband is kind of a computer geek and we came up with a cool way to use just the simple wireless security cameras you can pick up at any Futureshop or the Source - (any computer or electronic store will have them.)

    you can pick them up for around 70.00 and they work well and you can monitor them from any computer or ipod, iphone, or i pad etc... - with sound! or buy a cheap simple sound monitor to use?? if you want a really secure private camera just ask the sales people and it'll cost a bit more.. I really like them because you can use them later when your babys are grown for outside and whatnot. so they don't loose their functionality.
