Hi,
Any advice would be appreciated:
I am graduating from a PTZ IP camera. I want higher resolution and more cameras.
1> What is a good DVR that can:
- 4-8 channel
- network
- motion detect that can be set with a grid or boxes
- send email of picture triggered by motion - before/during/after pictures
- custom recording on HDD triggered by motion.
- PTZ compatible via remote web browser- maybe??? Not sure if good idea
2> Cameras - Any suggestions on good resolution color outdoor camera?
- what to look for? Good picture both day and night?
- do i want IR? for night time?
- CMOS or CCD image sensor is better?
3> Power
- are there power over coax solutions?
- or a coax that has power along side?
- or best to wire up power individually to each camera?
4> wired vs wireless - are there any wireless cameras that have good resolution? Recognize a face from 50 feet? Or need to go wired for sure?
5> PTZ - if I get PTZ compatible DVR, does that mean another cable I need to route for PTZ control?
and finally, any suggestions for where to buy everything at? on-line or in Los Angeles area?
Thanks
