drumdude67 0 Posted March 15, 2017 Hi guys, Please pardon the first post being a question! I have a smallish home and I'd like a camera system. I know it wouldn't be top dollar, but can you guys recommend the system you'd pick at a price under 200 bucks? I could get by with 2 cameras, 4 is great though. Wired is fine. Wireless is great but seems less stable(?) Anyway, I hope this is the right place for this question, and I'm glad to be a new member here. Thanks for any help!

You can only get cheap crap from China And you budget with p&p makes it nothing. Buy in stages over time by a nvr then a camera each month Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drumdude67 0 Posted March 15, 2017 and to everyone else...is there nothing I can buy for even, say, one camera thats usable quality under $200? I was thinking of this 4 cam setup from amcrest: https://www.amazon.com/Amcrest-Security-Weatherproof-Cameras-Transmit/dp/B00PMEG8YQ Any thoughts from you guys on this? Many thanks.

tomcctv 190 Posted March 15, 2017 Hi. Old analog system .... cvi or tvi or ip ... you will be wasting money if not HD. For system listed you will also need cable and bnc connections and also camera power supply Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drumdude67 0 Posted March 16, 2017 Tom, thanks for your replies. This system from Amcrest is 379....if the improvement is that big, I could spring for this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00R3QL6RA?ref=emc_b_5_t What do you think? Thanks a bunch for the help.
