  1. Can i get some pro opinions on where i should mount my front door ptz cam? I live in a townhome, very similar to the attached pic. It is an end unit. My original thought was to replace the front light with the cam being as i never use the light, but im now thinking otherwise. I figured that it may pass as a outside light at a quick glance. I am going to need to get the OK from the home owners association and they generally dont like anything being attached to the outside of the place. I may be able to do so if they approve it though. My other option would be to mount the cam on a pole in the left corner. I dont live in a bad area, i just want to be able to keep an eye on packages when ups/fedex leaves them on my front porch, see who is at my door, and also be able to view my car. My soffit is way too high that i would only see tops of peoples heads at my door. What do you guys think??
  2. Ive got a 4 channel q-see QC804 nvr. It only has 4 poe rj45 ports to hook up cams. I bought a q-see QD6531Z ptz camera that uses bnc coax. Now i could buy a dvr that i could use, but it would only be for this 1 cam which seems like a waste. Is there a reliable way that i could hook this up to my poe nvr? Would there be a loss in quality? Am i better off just using a dvr for it?
