    What system could be used for my needs?

    That first system is far too pricey for me, I'm only looking for the basic of security systems; and after some looking, I found one that somewhat interests me, I might give it a try, I just need to take some measurements and make some calls. http://www.ncix.ca/products/?sku=80152&vpn=DK4-C1404CM&manufacture=Vonnic Thanks for the suggestions however.

    What system could be used for my needs?

    I've read other posts in where someone buys one type of system and a forum member then says to buy a real camera system. Can no one do something similar here? Can someone advise me based on experience with using other camera systems or being in a relevant field? I just dont want to go out and buy a system that I later find out to be poor in quality and control.
  3. Hello, I'd like to set up a small camera system in my apartment. I'm not even entirely sure if CCTV cameras are the way to go, but this would be used for a maximum of 8-12 hours when I'm not home once a day. I've seen a few surveillance systems in my local stores, but they run upwards of $400 and start from around $250 and they don't even meet the cable length requirements. I'd like to have 3 cameras in total, the problem is with finding cables long enough to hook up to the PVR box. I estimated the lengths of two sets of cables to be around 100 ft long, to go from the camera, around the top corners of the ceiling and then into a separate room so the box is not noticeable out in the open. I'd of course like them to have motion sensors so they are not on at all times. I'd like a system that I could get back home to and check the storage device for anything it recorded; nothing overly complex. Would a wireless system prove more convenient? Based on what I'm sort of looking for, is there any system or anything at all you guys could recommend? Any alternatives or ideas you could recommend? *This is one system I was talking about, but I dont want to go get it just now. http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3702444&csid=_61 (Proximus P16-41438-R Security Camera System)
