kitaudio 0 Posted September 26, 2008 Hi Guys, I'm looking to place a few camera's in my parent's ice cream shop. We're going on vacation for a while and we need camera's that can watch the employees and see the number of customers. The budget is about $150-200 per camera. We really don't need much detail except for the camera watching the cash register. We prefer dome camera's. I've searched for dome camera reviews but wasn't able to come across much. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks ahead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CCTV_Suppliers 0 Posted September 26, 2008 How big is the area of concern? Is it a small or large size shop? The main reason for asking this question is to determine if you need wide angle lens or narrow angle lens, both varifocal, to accommodate your system. There some really good minidomes from various major manufacturers... and the price range is realistic... Let us know and we will give you model number and possibly even pricing range...

kitaudio 0 Posted September 27, 2008 The shop is 1300 square feet. 600 SF is the dinning area. We mainly want to view perhaps 3 camera's in the dinning area and 1 or 2 camera's by the cash register. Would it be more cost effective to go with a wide angle or multiple camera setup? Thanks again for your help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CCTV_Suppliers 0 Posted September 27, 2008 Here are some decent choices that will do the trick.. 1. Sanyo VCC-9684VA Indoor Mini Dome Camera, 540TVL, 2.8mm - 8.0mm Lens 2. Ganz ZC-D4039NHA 1/3" Color hi res dome w/3-9mm A/I varifocal, 540TVL 3. PANASONIC WV-CF284 Compact color mini dome camera, 540TVL, simple Day/Night, 2x vari-focal lens All these items above fall in the price range that you wanted.. and of course, Panasonic is the highest cost... Anyone of these will do the job... and I will put anyone of them in my store, if I had one... They all come with three years warranty, excellent picture quality and ease of installation... they take both 12VDC or 24VAC voltage inputs... etc... If interested on actual pricing, send me PM... Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
