Nah, that guy was an Aussie! (actually I think he's really from the USA??)

Game cameras! thats exactly what i'm looking for, I didn't even appreciate such a thing existed! Thank you! As for the house system, is there a way to connect cameras to a PC rather than a specialised DVDR unit? I have pretty high spec PC's with a lot of storage capacity and it seems silly not to utilise it if possible.

Hi all, I'm looking some advice on buying cctv systems for home use. I've been looking into this recently but everyone I speak to tells me their system is the best and is just what i need! here's my situation(s) I'm in Scotland. ------------------------------- I would like a 4 camera system for the exterior of the house, basically if it records movement with a reasonable picture I'd be happy. I have spare PC's I could use if this were an option? ------------------------------- I rent a farm building in which I keep/restore cars. about half a mile from home. Over a period of time i've been having some things stolen/damaged I'd like a small standalone (battery powered?) camera to record any movement within the building, I have mains power but its not a reliable supply. -------------------------------- I also do a bit of offroading/wheeling, drive a van regularly long distance and would like an onboard camera to record the action. I have been reading through a lot of other threads but I get lost in the jargon very quickly Can anyone point me in the direction of what I actually need? Could I use a mobile cam for both building security and offroad use?

Hi all, joined up looking for some advice
