  1. Hello all, look for advice and information on what route I should take on a camera system install. We've already had two packages stolen which was caught by the Ring doorbell. However, it's time to upgrade. Want: - NVR System - about 6-8 camera setup (I want to have one or two 4K cameras) - good night vision - remote viewing - continuous recording - do not want anything subscription based so no Arlo, etc. - I do not really have a budget in mind. I am willing to spend if the product is right. Questions: - What systems should I be looking at? Hikvision? Ubiquiti (seems a bit overpriced but I have Ubiquiti products powering my network throughout the house)? Lorex? - Is there a major difference or preference between dome and bullet cameras? - What other questions should I be asking myself and what else should I be considering? Any other information or guidance in the right directions would greatly be appreciated. Thank you!

  3. Hello all, look for advice and information on what route I should take on a camera system install. Here are the basics: - just moved into a new row home in Philadelphia so I only have a front door and garage door in the back. I am in a community so I am not too concerned with the garage side. - I have wired a Ring Pro doorbell to the front door in the meantime - I have Ubiquiti Unifi products for my home network using Cat6 (I can run more Cat6 to the cameras so that is not a problem) - HOA will not let me mount the cameras directly to the brick on the front of the house so I will need to get creative on how to mount them Wants: - monitor my front door and sidewalk in both directions. My front door is about 5-6 feet away from the sidewalk and elevated with a couple steps to the landing. A single camera above the door will only capture the entryway and sidewalk directly in front of the door so I think I will need three cameras. - something high-end that will work flawlessly - be able to view my cameras remotely - continuous recording (maybe up to a week?) - NVR system Questions: - What systems should I be looking at? Hikvision? Ubiquiti? - What cameras should I be looking for? Bullet? Dome? Need something that is HD at all lengths and does a good job at night as well - What are the different mount capabilities? - What other questions should I be asking myself and what else should I be considering? Any other information or guidance in the right directions would greatly be appreciated. Thank you!
