  1. Thanks for the follow-up, Dan. I appreciate you mentioning Hikvision and PCNVR. This brand-name kind of information is what I'm looking for in order to start moving towards the criteria I've outlined in my earlier posts.
  2. Believe it or not, they probably won't even see them I have signs on my property, large metal reflective signs that state the property has CCTV cameras and trespassers will be prosecuted, people still don't see them. And if they do see them and turn around and leave the property, that is a good thing Because going to court is giant pain in the butt, the system is to help the criminal and victimize the victim even more, not worth it if you can avoid it. Thanks for the reply, Dan. I don't intend to take the matter to court. Just needing to confirm who they are. My main drive here is to identify the hardware that could meet my needs; if anyone else has some more advice I'd definitely appreciate it.
  3. Thanks for the response, Mgb. The standard day and night cameras tend to look like big, obvious things. I don't know how I could put one of those up and it not be noticed. Thank you for those brand names, I'll certainly check those out. If anyone can think of any specific devices that might suit I'd really love to hear from you!
  4. Hi All, Glad to have found these forums, but my very limited knowledge means I don't really understand a lot of the things being said by the users here. I'm looking to be able to identify vandals that come on the property. I think I know who they are, but I need to actually know. They're coming late at night, meaning it's very low-light conditions (I'm guessing I need like .0001 lux? I've seen some youtube videos and that looks about right) and I assume a DVR is what I'd need to record the footage. The area to cover is quite small. Probably five or ten meters distance. I'll probably want the backyard part covered, as well as a walkway next to the house and also the car area (this last being the most important) So probably three or four tiny cameras max. Pinhole cameras seem to be the most ideal for being able to stick next to a windowsill to peak out without them being spotted. I guess I'm going to need extension cables for the camera(s) as well to get back to the DVR. Can anyone help steer me in the right direction please? I've spent a lot of time with Google and haven't found out a heck of a lot. Budget fairly low. I wouldn't want to spend over AU$500 if possible. The footage doesn't have to be excellent, but good enough so I'd be able to recognize whether it was the people I think it is or not. Thank you to anyone who takes the time to respond.
