Boogieman 1 Posted August 18, 2014 What specific model swann are you looking at? is it an ip system or analog? model number? What is your budget?? NVR has nothing to do with iOS so what you said makes no sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
macpro 0 Posted August 19, 2014 For swann it is NVR8-7085 I don't know about the owl system, I want to stay under 1300 for a budget thank for the help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boogieman 1 Posted August 19, 2014 That system is 720p...Entry level. You can get this if your are going for 720 http://www.samsclub.com/sams/qsee-8x8-720p-1tb-nvr-sys/prod12720263.ip?navAction= I would get at least 1080p, Depending on where you buy your cameras this can easily be done for 1300. Look at the dahua and hikvision 2mp and 3mp cameras. Most are about 100 per cameras direct from china and about 150 from US sellers.
