CCCTV advice Please

Recommended Posts

Hi i am looking for a cctv set up and was looking at the aldi one but someone has mentioned IP cameras are the way forward.

 

A 2 or 3 camera set up is what i am aiming for but one camera will do for now and add later when funds allow night vision and motion detection would be great but i can put lights up

 

Probably £300 max spend with all 3 cameras

I dont know what i need so please can you include links and keep it simple.

My house is a terrace.

Thanks

You can get a £30-50 NVR, and OK quality Dahua or HIKVision IP cameras for £100/piece. So a relative simple solution is way under your budget. I have cameras on a Synology ATM, but have an el cheapo NVR on the way.

 

But I am currently looking for something that are maintained, or at least designed for past-2010 computers (i.e. no ActiveX or other browser plugins, or Windows native software).

look at a camera with on board recording some will allow a 64 gig chip or more. you should be able to get something with IR and that will eliminate the need for a NVR for just a couple of cameras. to view you would just login directly to the camera. To see faces at night a lot will depend on camera location and how well the IRs work.
