spaceman 0 Posted August 11, 2006 We need to put up a surveillance system for our business. We were looking at 4 cameras + DVR system setup but with so many brands and products on the market we got confused which one would meet our need the best. We would like to be able to monitor (remotely) and record onsite activity 24/7. Our business consists of an office, storage buildings and the open work area. All cameras will be mounted outside, two overlooking the office and storage buildings,the other two the work area. The last two are facing east and west so we are wondering if there will be problems with the sun glare. If needed we can light up the area for night monitoring. We have a budget so all system should be under $3000. These are the models we were looking at: DVR- Ganz DR4N-500 or NUVICO NVDV2-4000N Cameras- JVC 1/3" TK-C920UA High Resolution CCD Or Samsung SDC-415 Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

jeffpa 0 Posted August 13, 2006 I just installed the Samsung SDC-415's and luv'm. On super low lux mode, with some amount of existing light, they really perform great. Nuvico, GE DVRMCe, Dedictated Micro's, icrealtime, samsung (techwin) are all good dvr's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
