I wish to install a security camera to cover the front and one to cover the rear of my home. I've been looking for some time but there are so many out there I'm getting brain freeze! I want a wireless system. I understand it still needs a power supply but that's not a problem. Obviously as they will be installed outside they will need to be waterproof. Night vision is a must so must have IR led's. I don't want a DVD connected. I'd prefer maybe an SD card where I could log in with my laptop or iPhone to download what has been recorded or indeed to check live feed. It doesn't need to be recording 24/7 so motion detection is required to start recording once someone actually sets foot within my property. It should have the ability to send me a text message with a live image to inform me that someone is there. Reliability and quality of image are the most important things so I don't want some cheap low resolution stuff. Only interested in top quality images. Not much use otherwise as I'm sure you will all agree. Am I asking for too much here or are such cameras available?

Sorry, first chance I had to check back. Budget I'd be looking at no more than about £600. I didn't know that the cameras could be hardwired through the home wiring system. That's interesting and as you say would be more reliable. I live in a small semi-detached so two cameras is all that would be needed. I'll have a look at this. Thanks for the reply.
