Hey all, I just ordered a few Q-See QCN8012B cameras, but had a question about their mounting. Does anyone know if the round mounting base can be unscrewed, allowing me to then screw the camera into an outdoor light fixture mounting plate? Here is the camera: http://www.q-see.com/cameras/weatherproof-1080p-resolution-65-ft-night-vision-qcn8012b I would like to screw it into something like this Otherwise, I will just bolt the mounting base as is to a blank outlet plate (I am running the wiring in conduits, so a flush mount to the wall is not possible). Thanks

I want to have 24/7 recording. There is no need for that for your purpose..thats the beauty of motion detection... If you insist...buy a small hikvision NVR like this...DS-7104NI I do not want any chance that the video is not recorded. I need 24/7, no exceptions.

That will not cover the needs. As I said, it must be 1080p and must have a 1 TB storage.

I want to have 24/7 recording.

That camera is neither 1080p nor is it infrared. Did you mean to send a different one? Also, you did not include any DVR info.

Thanks. Is that NVR going to be easy to set up with a Dahua unit, or will the setup be easier if I stay within the same brand? I setup a Q-See NVR for a friend once and it was a royal P.I.T.A.

Was hoping to get a camera that looks something along these lines:

The pool is 20 x 40, but the recording area is probably 40 x 70. It does not need to be hidden, but I also do not want a big pelco housing. The camera is basically an "insurance policy" in case anyone were to sneak in and become injured in the pool, I want to be able to have a record, and also be able to log in and check the area when I am away. It will record 24/7 and does not need to record on motion, but the feature would be nice down the road. Right now, I really do not want to have cameras all over the place, but perhaps down the road I might add some more (so expandability would be nice). The camera will be mounted under a third story roofline. I want to monitor directly adjacent to the pool, and the camera can be mounted in parallel line with the pool, or off to the side. Here is the pool

I looked around but could not find a topic quite like this: I want to install one camera and an NVR to monitor our pool. The camera needs to be a weatherproof Day/Night IR 1080p IP Bullet with PoE. I then want to connect this directly to a 1TB NVR which injects PoE. I will then wire this to our Verizon FiOS modem/wifi combo. I would like the system to be plug and play, and have free web and iPhone viewing. I assume I will have to configure my router for the web-based stuff, but a simple NVR setup is a must. I know there are a lot of ready made 4 camera systems, but I do not really want to have those extra cameras. Budget = $750-800 (approx) for the NVR and camera. Thanks
