Home cctv reccomendations

mistryn · 05-13-2013, 02:00 PM

Looking for reccomendations as to home cctv camera please, must have at least 3 cameras with good day/night vision resolution. DVR and if I can view it remotely would be a plus. not to fussed about amount of wiring as quite handy with tools

can you get wireless cameras? if so are they good?

i hardly know anything about cctv and got me thinking after watching one of the shopping channels which were demonstrating a 4 camera dvr system

budget around circa £200/£300, not looking for top spec one just something that can be recorded and no blurry images

Don't know how much security you are looking for but wireless cameras are useless for "proper" security, so probably best to stick with wired.

Yep wired are best. Swann camera's are wired and pretty good day/night recording with a good DVR.

I'm a complete noob on this subject but I just got this one

all in one, easy, cheap. Did I mention easy? Got it working like straight away, even the remote monitor app on my iPhone worked after a few set up steps.

Just works

Just under £200. Inc. 2 x cameras, 500Gb hdd and the all-in-one monitor. Everything to get going.

Day & Night (with infra red - quite good distance) and waterproof.
