ptz or fixed cameras ?

well i need a couple of cameras or a single ptz on corner of house To watch my garage and side enterence of my house.

Obviously need decent night vision

Seen this reolink 4mb ptz https://www.amazon.co.uk/4-Megapixel-Varifocal-Waterproof-Reolink-RLC-423/dp/B01GZUEG3A/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1472149104&sr=1-1&keywords=Reolink+ptz&tag=av0c-21

could possibly fit this on corner of house so would only need the one camera and one ethernet cable then.

only thing that puts me off a ptz is it has moving parts so more likely to fail. or am i just being to cautious. anyone any experince with a ptz?

also heard from reading up a bit 4mb ip cameras are suppost to be very good. ( higher mp the better picture )

2 x 4mp fixed cameras or ptz? Which would be my best option.

Can you see the side entrance AND your garage with one camera. If not then two cameras fixed to the points of interest will be best. If you think that a ptz camera running on "tour" will do the job then just make sure you allow for the "HUGE" storage space that will be required

cant see garage and side entrance with one camera so guess i would need two.

heard this camera the 4mb i8 is suppost to be good at night http://www.netviewcctv.co.uk/hikvision-ds-2cd2t42wd-i8.html

i think the key to cctv is to stop theft happerning in the first place.

only thing that i dont like about the new DS-2CD2T42WD-I8 are i think this camera has 1 night vison led you can see at night ( might be wrong ) compaired to the older cameras which have the round night vison led rings obviously people can see the led rings lit on them so at night so are a very good deterent.

ive already bought the latest hikvision 4k nvr http://www.netviewcctv.co.uk/8-channel-hikvision-4k-nvr-ip-12mp-recording-80-256mbps-max-12tb-hdd-h265-ds-7608ni-i2-8p.html should i still go with this camera despite the fact they only have 1 night vision led on at night. i guess potental thiefs they can still see this camera at night ?

hope someone can advize

anyone got these cameras who can comment, hope someone can help.
