Hello all. I wired and installed four cameras on the exterior of my home. These are USAG #US-AVC4-2-MDNT cameras. I've tested these cameras on a monitor, and the night clarity is excellent.

Any recommendations or advice? Thanks!!!

Hello everyone! I'm new to this forum. I've been reading and learning a lot, but I am completely new to the CCTV scene. I recently purchased a home, and my fiancee and think security cameras would be a good investment. Hopefully they will deter anyone from messing around. We live in a great neighborhood, but it's a VERY quiet block, and cameras and an alarm will give us some peace of mind. I decided to DIY the install. Fishing the wires and hooking everything up is no problem for me, but I'm having a difficult time selecting the equipment. I decided on a 4-channel dome IR camera system with an H.264 DVR. I narrowed it down to these two cameras. There is a $120 per camera price difference, but both have VERY similar specs. Camera B is the more expensive camera. The only major differences I see is slightly better resolution and more IR LEDs on camera B. SPECS CAMERA A ($132.60) Image Sensor: 1/3" Sony High Resolution CCD Signal System: NTSC Effective Pixels: 768 (H) x 494 (V) Resolution: 550 TV Lines Min. Illumination: 0.0Lux ( IR on ) S/N Ratio: More than 48dB Auto Electronic Shutter: 1/60 to 1/100,000 sec Lens Types: 4~9mm Vari-focal Lens Infrared LED: 36 Pieces Infrared Distance: 98’ Video Output: 1.0Vp-p 75ohm Power Supply: DC 12V, 500mA Min. (1A Recommended ) Indoor/Outdoor - Weather Proof SPECS CAMERA B ($249.99) Image Sensor: 1/3â€

By the way, I just found out that CCTV Camera Pros is the manufacturer of camera B. #DPRO-EC550VF2

Have you ever had any experience with the ICREALTIME "ICR300H2"? It's about $300+. Thanks a lot for the help. This is very confusing. Image Sensor 1/3" SONY Super HAD CCD Resolution 540 TV Lines Effective Pixel 297K Minimum Illumination 1 Lux Color; 0 Lux (IR on) S/N Ratio > 50dB Signal Format NTSC / PAL Lens 3.5mm-8mm Vari-Focal Gain Control AUTO Auto Shutter (AES) NTSC/EIA: 1/50~ 1/12,000 sec.; PAL/CCIR: 1/50 ~ 1/100,000 sec.

Camera A - #SVCMD708H Camera B - #DPRO-EC550VF2 I'm not even sure what company produces these cameras. It doesn't even say.
