Water can be sprayed on them and they will still work; however, the cameras cannot be submerged underwater. Although the cameras can be exposed directly to the rain, it is recommended that, if they are used outdoors, they be mounted under some type of cover like a patio overhang or eave.

You can mount the camera with the stand on the bottom (on a wall or tabletop) or on the top (on the ceiling).
