New Zealand Takeabreak Webcam Blog Takeabreak Cams are located around New Zealand. The next generation Webcam.

At present we have 14 images from Russell, Paihia, Tauranga, Taupo,Nelson City, Nelson water front, Tasman Bay, Kaiteriteri, Punakaiki, Greymouth, Hanmer Springs, Kaikoura, Fox Glacier and Mount Cook. After buying the best webcam available and installing it at Hanmer Springs we were disappointed that the image was not crisp and clear. We then developed our own Takeabreak Cam that was auto focus, produced a clean image and could be tweeked remotely.

The Takeabreak Cam only requires a network cable connection as it has POE which makes it very simple to setup and connect to the internet.

My Main reason in setting up this Blogg is to start a forum for improving the standard of Webcams and helping people understand where they can be used to promote businesses and New Zealand as a tourism destination.

We all have our favourite spots here in New Zealand where we want to know the conditions. i.e. Is it snowing, what are the sea conditions and is it really like you hear from a news item.

We have had numerous occasions where visitors to NZ, on returning home, have found a Takeabreak Cam where they can check out the view of an area they visited and have decided to move to NZ after a few months. We are constantly reminded by E-mail if a takeabreak Cam is down. In all cases the problem has turned out to be as simple as the modem needed resetting.
