for real time recording, you will need 1 DVR for each camera, like how casinos do it with VCRs, they have 1 VCR for each camera, so if they have 1000 cameras, they have 1000 VCRs,that pop out every 4-6 hours, and tapes are changed and archived. Rory

for recording, yes. 5pps is fine for most retail depends on how many cameras are connected, etc. Set up the pps and record, then playbackl and see if it is what you can live with. If not, makee it faster, or slower. NOTE: multiplexed video is never real time. check out these for an example of different playback speeds & camera numbers, these being on a 60pps single channel stand alone kalatel DVR. http://www.bahamassecurity.com/ms/shockwave.asp

no most all DVRs/Muxes, etc, split it up, its the current technology. As you add more cameras, it gets less per camera.

are they any good?

I didnt even see that part, 90' with 12 LEDs, very doubtful, 40 IR LEDs barely give you 40-50 feet (Extreme CCTV products), especially with a wide anlge view, it is normally dark around the edges, andwide angles, are normally not as clear around the edges. But yes for that price, you could get it, and for that price its worth it whether it works as it says or not! At least you will get some picture.

www.cctvcamera.co.kr is this the same one??

i agree with hermin, cheap in cctv is exactly what it sais, they are cheap, and normally either dont last, or dont have any support worth mentioning. Best day night ive seen, Extreme CCTV's EX82, plenty $$ though. Ganz has what looks like a good day night, great specs. So far ive only used the Sanyo day night camera., which was OK.

some of them are junk, GeoVision from what I have seen online looks clear, but they are not going to be as clear in full screen as a regular DVR with a CCTV monitor, at least not from what I have seen. I may be wrong though? Rory

this has been my busiest month yet! But then I ve just really started advertising, Ill post some images of my signs when i get some photos, they are like those huge signs you get on the highways in the US! What Im doing right now, for some people, is letting them buy their parts at dealer cost trhough my distributor, to get the job, yo have it behind me, still make the labour. Only until I get the bus on its feet. Otherwise it normally costs double the dealer cost at my local price, due to duty, shipping ,etc.

I have to admit, I have learned alot from you guys, about other available products

i only post on 2 web forums, this one, and a bahamian one (www.bahamasissues.com)

326!

seems now they may let him off anyway, as they are not calling it a murder, and so many people called in on the local radio show to say they approved totally with what they did. A pastor even called in and said though hed never committed acrime in his life, he would have done the same, and then poored gas over them and lit it ... Some people questioned why they didnt just mame him, but who knows. It was apparently just a 19 year old, but what they did to the maid, she is missing teeth, etc, bad beating, then the guy wasnt exactly innocent.

www.a1alarm.com web site is not very impressive, but they are good people and service is good.

they were sold it only a year ago, its asian apparently, as the booklet for the keypad has no name anywhere on it. One of those no name products!

just took over an account that has a no name win98 DVR, selling them a real one, i mean really any other DVR PC or not would be more real than this one they have! It only allows saving an image to a floppy, and has basically no features to speak of, and ofcourse, win98, freezed 10 times while I was there! Anyway, the guy that sold them it took the keyboard away as it stopped working, for the PTZ, no name keybpard, as I have the booklet and it, well has no name! But i have attached a photo of it if anyone can recognise it, I need to also know what dome brand it is, but more importantly we need a new keyboard. They have a bunch of Phillips Dinion cameras also, in a dirty dirty warehouse, in no housings, and they are all dirty dirty dirty, anwyay, thats another story. Its definately from Asia. The DVR software doesnt support the PTZ's protocol, only supports 5 others that dont work. Thanks Rory

Alan do you know who makes that one listed in thie link you posted? Is it Appro? My distributor in florida said they have a 4 camera Appro DVR for abou that same price, and same fucntions, but havent been able to get any specs on it yet. Thanks

I just PMed you the email for the Product Manager for Kalatel CCTV equipment in Melbourne Australia. Rory

ok thanks, ill take your word for it. rory

anyone tried these cameras?? Specifically the PTZ unit, (model 2000). Looks interesting, espcially if its cheap. They have a lot of easy to install cameras with built in lense, cant find pricing on the web though.

your closer to Japan I guess?

Thanks I thought maybe Sony becasue they have the name, but ive seen Panasonic around alot, though I personally dont liek them. I see they sell that Ganz Thermal camera in the US for like $8000! Ganz US prices http://www.spytown.com/search--by-part-number-computar-indoor-domes-with-intergrated-varifocal-lenses.html

whats the model number? Ill look up the price for us over here. They dont come weatherproof though I noticed, you have to add a weatherproof attachment, which was costing $125 US. Rory

panasonic?

Sony?? Pano??
