I have decided to upgrade to a HD-SDI system. I would like to get some clarification on a system with a web server built in. Does this mean the DVR would connect to a Internet signal wirelessly? Currently running a 100ft Ethernet cable and having to have a third party domain to supply a static IP address. I would like to eliminate the IP address issue along with the Ethernet cable. How can I solve this issue and any recommendations on brand to get? Thanks

I would like a DVR instead of storing footage on a pc. Camera wise I just want clear HD footage. I would eventually like to incorporate one PTZ cam, but not an immediate necessity. From research I think I would prefer ultra low LUX instead of IR cams. It is a residential subdivision so there is adiquate ambient light in the area. A few years ago I wasted money on a ZMODO pre packaged system and don't want to make that mistake again. I just do not know where to even begin with finding high quality affordable DVRs and cams( referring to brands). Thanks for your time and help.

I am looking to upgrade my standard, low budget system to HD-SDI, basically for better quality video. I am on a budget, but willing to spend to get quality. I have found that Q-See and Swann both make a 8 Channel HD-SDI package for about the same price, $1400-$1600. Are these brands worth the money and is one preferred over the other? Should I piece a system together and if done so can I stay in the $1500 range? If the mentioned brands are not recommended, can you refer me to some preferred brands. I am open to all opinions. Thanks in advance.
