Welcome Elj3ffe
I think you'll like the starlight models.
It's easy to get swamped with information here, so I wanted to share some notes with you
Please check out @giomania 's notes:
Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)
I have also made notes which are a summary of a lot of the reading I've been doing here,:
Looking for some advice and direction!
Have fun joining us here.
Thanks Sir! This was the model I was looking into! I really only need about 4 cameras in total with what I've already got, with that being said, an 8ch NVR would be sufficient right?

Hi ElJ3ffe,
If you are buying the NVR separate, definitely pick a slightly better one which can handle more.. just as looney2ns points out... go 16 ports / channels and not worry about it.
Sounds good, I looked at Empire and its only a couple buckks more and the more I look at this stuff, I want to double down my camera purchase now haha
