Looking at this HDTVI camera: https://www.jmcsecure.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=DS-2CE16D5T-AVFIT3 With this recorder: https://www.jmcsecure.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=DS-7204HGHI-SH Comes in at my budget. Any reason why this would not be ok?

Would it not be ok to go for HDTVI? seems much cheaper?

I found this 720p camera which is in my budget do you think it will suffice? http://www.securitydirect.ie/cctv/dahua-hdcvi-ir-bullet-camera-hac-hfw2220rp-z/ Edit: Just realised its not an IP camera. forget it

My budget is €300 $320 £250 I need to order something today so if you could link me to products available in Europe for that budget I would be forever grateful! I need an IP camera for nighttime street viewing at 20metres range and an NVR. thanks

What if you buy with no support or warranty or buy China imports with wrong software ......... And dahua are cheap in the UK much cheaper than Amazon and the likes Not that cheap... https://www.jmcsecure.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=HAC-HFW2220R-Z This camera and an NVR is about €365 before shipping

Do I really need updates and free cloud service? I really just want the thing to work and record to the NVR and just leave it be I dont think I'll update anything if it works from the beginning..

Buying Dahua from the registered UK suppliers is almost as expensive as buying Hikvision.. Does anybody have a recommended seller for Dahua in Europe that sell at a good price? The AliExpress prices are reasonable but the UK dealer prices are very high.

Hi. You have one of the biggest distributors in Ireland ... Called RF concepts .... You will get good warranty and backup from them Hi RF concepts dont appear to do the Dahua brand?

Ok so I can add my own HD.. thats great I have a spare 1TB sata in the house. I think I'll go for the bullet. I dont have to worry about firmware issues with these Dahua products from aliexpress do I? Hi. Yes you will have problems if buy from aliexpress ...... No updates or free cloud service . Where can I buy this cam and nvr in Europe? I'm in Ireland

I dont think the link to this motorized varifocal worked before can you link it to me again please. Can you recommend an NVR with harddrive built in so I dont need a computer. thanks http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2015-Original-Dahua-IPC-HDBW4300R-Z-1080P-gun-waterproof-network-camera-3MP-IR-ip-camera-cctv/32327314062.html?spm=2114.01020208.3.2.H4efKw&ws_ab_test=201407_5,201444_6,201409_2 or http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/2015-Original-Dahua-IPC-HFW4300R-Z-1080P-gun-waterproof-network-camera-3MP-IR-ip-camera-cctv/638300_32327131317.html get the NVR from dahua, in my post above...dont mix cams and NVR..get the same brand. Which would you go for Boogie in my position bullet or dome? Does that NVR you mentioned have onboard storage so I can use it alongside the camera with no PC?

Thank Tom. So basically can you recommend me a Dahua camera and NVR (with onboard storage) for what I need based on the photo above and details mentioned. I'm really anxious to order something this weekend because my car is back from getting resprayed in the next few days.

That quality its terrible...here is the same area with a 2.8mm 1080p hikvision watch in 1080pIf you get a larger lens, it will be even clearer but more zoomed in... You are better off buying a china hikvision than this 960h... Also look at dahua.. Here is a motorized varifocal (so you can adjust the focal length really easy anytime) 130. Pick a a dahua NVR http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Dahua-NVR-NVR4204-08-16-32-Network-Video-Recorder-NVR4204-NVR4208-NVR4216-NVR4232/32378947160.html?spm=2114.01020208.3.2.XAT6ZD&ws_ab_test=201407_4,201444_5,201409_5 and you are done...this is probably the best solution. Or your can record direct to pc with dahuas free pss software. Ok your point is made! I've been offered an english hikvision DS-2CD2132 (same as in the video) or an english Hikvision DS-2CD2112. The guy selling them is an expert and he thinks the DS-2CD2112 will be better at night time which is what I need. What do you think? Here is a picture of the area at night time. My car would be across the road in place of the van. I'm going to go with a wide angle shot rather than a zoomed shot so I can get more potential parking spaces in the shot and cover our driveway.

I was looking at this camera and the quality looks decent for the price if I zoomed it into to 12mm it may work do you not think?
