blakem 0 Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Well I cannot look at those links at work but from the descriptions those all look like cheap cameras. They generally have poor image quality and some of those no name brands probably also come with zero support. I think cameras like that can be good for certain purposes like using as a baby monitor or webcam, but i would not trust them for using as a security camera. I bet if you just doubled your budget you can at least get a Dahua that would collect better quality evidence. That is just my opinion and if you budget only allows for those cameras then maybe it is better than nothing. By the way with most all ip cameras you can ftp images or video, but generally you can only email images not video. Edited April 3, 2013 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buellwinkle 0 Posted April 3, 2013 Don't know how you can go wrong with any of these, Tenvis, Foscam, some of the best cameras out there since Mattel stopped making the Barbie cam. At one time, long, long ago, I started here too, so I shouldn't make fun. Luckily they didn't last that long, a few months and I was able to get something decent.
