bombardier5477 0 Posted January 16, 2018 To start off I will say a POE system seems out of my budget since I am looking for an 8 camera system. I have narrowed my choice to the following and would appreciate any insight on which one you guys think is best. Both are roughly $300. I think Laview might be a better brand but in reviewing the specs on each, the LaView DVR says something about 1080p on efficient mode, not sure what that means and if it is a true 1080p. https://loocam.com/collections/hd-security-camera-systems/products/1080p-hd-8-channel-security-camera-system https://www.laviewsecurity.com/8-channel-d0t-dvr-6-1080p-bullet-camera-2tb.html THANKS ALL!!

tomcctv 190 Posted January 16, 2018 Why only choose from those two systems ? 1st one is junk and cheap and also first lesson on buying online .......check website for contact numbers or at least a email .... your first link has none of them. Choose from the two ..... none Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bombardier5477 0 Posted January 16, 2018 Alright, well I only want to spend around $300, is there any decent 6 to 8 camera system you would recommend? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 190 Posted January 16, 2018 Alright, well I only want to spend around $300, is there any decent 6 to 8 camera system you would recommend? Both your own links are over your budget. You lowest link ... only works out at $37 an item Does your budget also include other parts needed to get it to run Power supply...... rg59 cable ..... bnc and tool and then a hard drive ...... just these parts alone has taken your budget Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeromephone 6 Posted January 16, 2018 Put the 300.00 toward a better lock or better lighting. At least you won't be trying to protect your property with junk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bombardier5477 0 Posted January 17, 2018 Both systems are available on amazon for $300 or less with hard drive and wiring. And I'm aware they wont be great systems and are more of a harry homeowner type. I have plenty of flood lights and locks. I just didn't know if you had any other recommendations for this price range. It sounds like anything I want in this range will be about the same quality so I will just go for the LaView if no one has any other recommendation.
