Camera Recommendations - Different needs for each camera

[bcurrey 0]

Hello. First post here. Been reading on the site for a while. Learned a ton! Need some help on which cameras I need for my purposes. I think each of my camera needs are a little different from one another.

 

Here’s what I am looking for:

 

• Installing 3 cameras probably one at a time over the next year

• All cameras will be connected to a Synology 412+

• Need motion sensors with email/text alerts

• Need to be able to log in from phones to view

• All cameras will need to have POE

• Budget is $250-300ish per camera.

 

 

Front porch

•  Camera will be covered from weather
   Night vision is needed, however I have under-eave lights that automatically come on at night, so it won’t be complete darkness.
   Primary purpose for this camera is to monitor the front door and porch. I think it if get a 2.8 lens it will probably cover a good portion of the front yard based on where I plan to place it.
   No preference as to whether it can pan, tilt, zoom
  

 

Back Porch

•  Camera will be covered from weather
   Night vision is needed and this camera will not get much light.
   Just want to monitor the back porch area. Again, I think a 2.8 lens will give me good coverage of everything I need
   No preference as to whether it can pan, tilt, zoom

 

Garage

•  Camera will be under the eave, but will be likely to get wet from rain
   Night vision is needed, however I have under-eave lights that automatically come on at night, so it won’t be complete darkness.
   This camera will have quite a bit of area to cover. I would like to be able to pan and tilt if needed.

 

Appreciate the help. Looking forward to seeing the responses.
