Good low light camera guidance needed

[Driver05t 0]

Hi All,

 

I'm looking for some guidance. Our house is in the country with very little outside lights other than the moon and stars. I am looking for a camera that is going to be good in low light situations, but also has a long range. To give you an idea, from the back of my house to the tree line is 175', my driveway is 400'. I would like the cameras to be around the $200 range. I know the 400' driveway is unrealistic, I just want to be able to see as far down it as possible. There are a lot of trees on our property and we never know when someone is pulling down the driveway. I have been looking at these 3 cameras as options. All 3 seem to have a long IR range.

 

Hikvision DS-2CD2T25FWD-I5/I8

 

Dahau N44BB33

 

Honeywell HEW2PR2

 

I need to purchase at least 5 of those.

 

Additionally I need to look for something to cover my entryways. I'm not sure if those are the best for that option, since I wouldn't need the long distance, just really good low-light.

 

Any help is appreciated.

The Hikvision looks like a goiod choice, one of the ultra lowlight models. The Dahua doesn't, look for the Dahua Starlight models.
