0cean23 0 Posted November 28, 2013 I came across one more system, swann 8ch NVR with 3mp camras . would this be a better system? http://m.costco.com/Swann-8-Channel-3MP-NVR-Security-System-with-2TB-HDD-and-4-1080p-Cameras.product.100058520.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cliff369 0 Posted November 28, 2013 Yes the Q-SEE are rebranded Dahua cameras. I haven't see the Lorex before so, not sure on that one. But the Q-SEE/Dahua 2MP bullet isn't that bad for the money. I recently tested one during the day and night and thought it would work well... again for the price. you can't beat 8 2MP IP cameras for that. Just hope all your scenes are ok with the 3.6mm lens. I'll send you some scene shots if you want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
