I just got a job to install 4 cameras in an office indoor and 8 to 12 cameras at a huge house both indoor and outdoor.
I've been reading to board for a couple of weeks now trying to learn and find out what are the best cameras and dvr to install base on various budget but I'm still loss. Everyone have their own opinion and suggestions.
I've narrowed it down to CNB cameras but still confused about the different models. I'm hoping to buy good quality cameras as close as possible to $100.00 a piece. Someone suggested I buy cameras from icrealtime but they seem to be only 400 lines of resolution as opposed to CNB's higher lines of resolution.
The DVR's I'm totally confused about. My client wants to be able to view over the internet of course and also wants to keep videos from 1 to 2 weeks with a DVR.
I'm thinking about buying one of those packages from one of the dealers mentioned here on the board that offers 4, 8 or 16 camera packaged.
My question is, should i buy a package or buy everything individually. I have tested this camera at 120.00 a piece, but not sure. do i need to purchase 2 different cameras for indoor or outdoor or one that does both.

I Have a budget of $5,000 and that will include my pay and probably 12 to 14 cameras total and 2 dvr's and cables, power box and no monitors.
I would appreciate any suggestions
