    Need help with finding best affordable NVR and camera package

    Steve, for $600 all you will get is junk cameras and seems you have prior experience with those. As you are a network technician you probably have a computer or two laying around and a few switches. Buy yourself a Blue Iris licence for $60, add a POE switch and with a bit of learning you will...

    New to IP cameras and need some help picking out components

    Blue Iris is the gold standard in security camera monitoring software BUT it is not for the faint of heart. If your looking for a new hobby and can put in hundreds of hours learning it, there is nothing comparable for the price. If you want your system setup in a day get a NVR. I think IDENTIFY...

    Gates to the rescue! Soon have all the environmentally friendly and sustainably sourced lab meat you could ever want. Should pair well with the glyphosate resistant GMO burger buns.

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    Not as yet, been so busy recently and cameras haven't arrived yet, but I look longingly at my new ER-X every weekend sitting on my desk. I think I'll have a few questions when I get started, took me hours just to figure out how to login to the thing. LoL. I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

    Getting ready to buy first cameras and would like your opinion on best choices.

    Definitely have the IPC-T5442TM-AS shortlisted to use once I workout the focal lengths required. The 1:1/8" seems well worth the extra $50. I have a lot of critters where I live so am a bit wary of using the bullets. The IPC-B5442E-ZE sure does look a nice choice thought, but $320 is probably...

    Must of been a brainfart, I thought bullets were only wall mounted. Darn, now you just made my decision so much harder.☹️

    That's interesting Peter looks quite good night vision. Are these a varifocal?, I'm looking for a varifocal as my first camera to experiment with to confirm what focal lens to get.

    Thanks sebastiantombs, I read the thread on the IPC-T5442TM-AS which is same price or slightly cheaper than the IPC-HDW5231R-ZE so leaning that way. I think I need to stick with the turrets as they will all be under the eves.

    Thanks catcamstar, so an advantage of using BI would be that I can use lower featured cameras to do what the higher ones can do natively.
