Thanks guys for the replies!!! I think I am going to go ahead with Axis IP Cams. My friend doesn't want to use a computer for recording but want's a separate DVR box. What is a good brand of IP DVRs, with internet streaming. Thanks again!

Thomas thank you for the reply. What about going CCTV route. I see some packages in my range, but i have no idea which brand names are good quality. It really doesn't matter if cameras are ip or cctv as long as my friend is able to see streaming video over the internet. PTZ is just an extra and also is not a requirement. Any further assistance would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Thank you very much for the reply. I actually was looking into a solution from axis, but for some reason this dvr is not available for purchase in North America. This is one of the reason i am looking into another solution. Thanks again!

Hi everyone!!! I found this forum while searching for information on setting up few cameras in my friend's office. I found lots of great information here!! I have a few question for you guys if you don't mind so i can put it all together. I installed few AXIS IP cameras in another office, which are connected to the router and he is able to watch his office over the internet. Now he asked me to setup 4 cameras in his new office but he would like to get recording options and also zoom controls over the internet. I would like to find out which is a better solution cctv or ip cameras in this situation. The budget is under $1500. I found few threads talking about budget solutions. Someone suggested this DVR G4-LTA. It looks like everything that i would need to setup up CCTV solution. Are midrage CCTV cameras usually cheaper or more expensive then IP Cams with ability to zoom and maybe pan. Can some one please suggest some IP DVRs. I might buy 4 AXIS cams and connect them to the IP DVR. I would really appreciated some suggestions. Thank you very much in advance!!!!
