Nirvana would be:
Motion detection - prefer to have the camera do motion detection
color w/night vision
I'd prefer jpeg format
light level will vary quite a bit
moving object in the field of view could potentially be moving quickly, but not a running speed. More than a slow walk, slower than a run.

I have a few questions about what you want to do with the camera.
* Color or gray scale images?
* Do you want motion detection?
* If you want motion detection, do you want the camera to do it, or a sensor connected to the camera?
* How many frames/second?
* Type of image format (JPEG or PNG or other)?
* How much will the light level vary?
* How fast will objects be moving in the field of view?

Most of the cameras I've seen thus far all have embedded web servers which is okay, but I wanted one that would take pictures and save them to a network drive but I'm not sure if any of these devices exist.
Any thoughts? Low power is best as I would hope to run power over ether (and then split the power back out at the camera end).
