Unfortunately I cannot see what was in that order but am curious as to which one you purchased. I looked at some cameras on that site but those that I did did not indicate PAL/NTSC (but do have English firmware). Some of the shipping costs are outrageous, but it seems the ones with free...

thanks to both for all the info. many questions on all that but first trying to figure out where to buy this stuff. not finding many vendors selling those Dahua PTZs and cctv-mall appears to have the best selection (on the website at least, heard may not actually be in stock). Also not...

I am guessing the SD59212S-HN is the $500 PTZ you mentioned. If I got those then I would only need three to cover pretty much what I need. CCTV-Mall has the 20x (DAHUA SD59220S-HN) in stock for $418 (the 12x is actually more at $438 but out of stock - am I missing something why it would be...

argh, this is a bit frustrating - I mean you think you found exactly what you need and then it turns out not to be the case. Your more expensive PTZ does that have IR and if so how much do they cost? The mini PTZ that is not weatherproof have you had any issues with it mounted outside (I am...

Did not notice the lack of IP66 on those cameras. How about the similar dome camera DH-SD22A204TN-GN (did not check price but should be similar)? I gave up on wifi and resigned myself to running Ethernet but would like to stick with one device per location (just the camera, no other sensors...

thanks nayr and Fastb for more great info. followed links and did more searching and here is what I am thinking of. nayr - I found a thread of a mini ptz you have and you mentioned it was around $200 or so (SD29204T-GN-W is the newer version from the end of that thread). if that is the case...

Thanks for the welcome and the very detailed reply. So most of these cameras do not have PIR built-in and just rely on image processing? If so that is a bit of a bummer. I really would like to just install a camera instead of a camera and PIR at each location. My goal with this setup is to...

Thanks for the reply. Yeah I think I have resigned myself that I will need to run ethernet to the cameras. What makes me cringe is there is not much to no space to access the eaves from in the attic so not sure how to run it. Guessing will have to drill from outside and fish the wire in that...

I know these types of questions have been asked before and I have been searching/reading threads on here and not getting anywhere. There have been a few breakins in the area and I want to put together an outdoor survelliance system as quick as possible. I think I want to go with Dahua at least...
