Question for you installers:

 

1. When will IP cameras be more affordable?

 

2. If I want a 3MP IP camera where can I buy one for less then $200.00 now?

 

Thanks.

I want a quality picture. Why do you recommend analog for me?

 

Small summer home.

 

Need a camera to watch the 20x75 driveway

 

Any particular reason you want to use Megapixel cameras over analog?

I am not recommending I am just asking why you wanted IP.

 

For your price range your not gonna find anything unless you find something used. Also keep in mind you will need software and a computer to record the video.

 

HD/Megapixel has advantages and disadvantages over analog. Major advantage is image quality you get much high resolution over analog. Disadvantage is low light sensitivity but you can always add light to make up for this. With analog you can NEVER get better resolution.

You're not going to get a suitable, outdoor-rated, quality IP cam for 200 bucks.

 

I just don't see it happening.

 

That's just the camera.

 

You need a dome for that if you plan to mount it outdoors.

 

Here's one... another $130

Let the person choose. Don't only offer what you would get.

In my experience, most people don't want their "Summer House" to look like a prison.

 

You see, I have this thing called a "wife," that has introduced me to the extreme importance of such aesthetic niceties.

Vandal domes make it look like a prison also.

Get some mini bullet cameras instead.
