tomcctv 190 Posted February 3, 2012 can anyone tell me if the apollo 4 channel hd dvr are any good you installed 1 last week ..... viewtopic.php?f=6&t=28967 also there is some other ones 17th and 18th camera downdoes anyone know if these are any good they are 70 each second hand these cameras are new to the market. so if you can get them secondhand at £200 less. then i should think they are junk if someone has changed them already. but for £70 it may be worth it ...... better than paying £278.60 / $434.62 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tomcctv 190 Posted February 4, 2012 night devils do come with a big problem if used to catch a face close up. to the point you cant use it in court. it does some very clever tricks but the result is you end up with a Animation. it takes the light of parts and it fills in the rest. the result is you end up with a cartoon .... something out of shek. http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=AqFOSCFZ2DI&feature=endscreen if you want to spend £150 on a night devil ..... it is a brand of system q you will find it cheaper there.
