I am looking to install some sort of camera's for monitoring around my home. I have been reading a bit online but some overwhelmed with the all the options available. I live in a >3000 square foot home that is around 60-70 years old so I would like to rule wireless out I think. (Wireless in old homes has always been mixed to me). What I would want is monitoring around the home with live video feed on an iPhone/iPad. I am planning on mounting an iPad to permanently be a smart home hub (for those who are interested controlling the nest, airplay speakers, etc). I am not sure really what kind of system I want, also I am not looking at spending a terrible amount of money. It will be quite difficult to run wires. Something I was thinking of doing is just mounting various cameras along the east side of the house to watch the driveway/garage/gate/front area. The cables would likely run in plastic conduit.
