    help with 1st home cctv system

    Actually ,keep in mind ,wireless cameras also need power to work .In addition ,In CCTV cameras, resolution is measured in TV Lines (TVL). A higher number of TVL means that a camera will be able to render images with more detail. However, TVL is not the sole factor that determines the quality of the final output.The parameters of TVL including 700TVL ,900TVL ,1000TVL 1200TVL etc.
  13. Different cameras can match different NVR,it doesn't have to be the same brand.But I suggest that you'd better to buy a camera system rather than hybrid combination, it will save you more time if you are not a tech guy who are familiar with cameras.In addition ,if the camera has problems ,it's more convenient for you to solve it .

    Buying outdoor ip security cameras

    Hi ,Eliminator Do you want to buy single cameras or camera system ? In addition ,according to your link that 1 camera kit is a little over your budget(80-160$),but you said that you wanna 2 outdoor cameras ,I think it's a little expensive to you for 2 cameras . Actually ,it's difficulty to buy 2 wireless cameras system under $160 ,if you buy wired cameras ,it's a different story.Because most of wired cameras cheaper than wireless but also with high quality .

    Introduction

    Welcome you two guys .And Sliquordep , if your cameras can't contact with your smartphone or computer ,I think the settings of your cameras is incorrect ,just follow the user manual and check it .If still not working ,then search some videos from youtube ,there are a lot of geeks upload videos on it to teach people how to do with CCTV camera .

    Hikvision vs. Phylink/Trivision?

    Hi guy I don't think you will get the answer of the two camera brands. Because: 1.every brand of the cameras has cons and pros ,good stuff and junk stuff etc. 2.Rather than keeping your eyes in brands, why not care about what cameras do you want ? 3.If you really want to choose one camera from the 2 brands,you'd better to choose some similar products(meet your requirements) from the 2 brands , then ask someone who has experience with the 2 cameras ,they will share story with you and finally you'll get your answer .
