Yeah, my Achilles heel is technology and end up jumping in too fast. I just started with 6 external cameras and feel like a junkie now and need to add more :). I think the best bet is your approach, get one camera and test it in various locations.
Thanks again!
My turn for a hmmm... :) So it's really a compromise. Some variation of the my original option 2 for best facial recognition if garage door is closed or it's night-time. Or Holbs recommendation for best coverage overall and rely on the camera on the outside corner of the garage for facial...
Thanks, I didn't think of moving the two fixed cameras. I was stuck on both having direct line of sight to a face when approaching that entry point. So in essence the top left position will capture face traffic into the garage, both to the house entry and stairs, while the bottom right covers...
I have a quick question I'd like to ask this forum. I have an odd shaped garage (See attached rough) that I'm trying to determine the best options for camera placement inside the garage. There will be a camera outside the garage just to the left of the garage door (when looking at the...

I understand, but as much as I wish I did, I don't have full decision on finances when it comes to more pricy investments. It's a mini coup getting approval for the system. In the end, I think having a system with some limitations is better than no system which is the compromise I'm trying to...
First, I'd like to say thank you for the great information I have found from members such as SouthernYankee, loony2ns, Andy from EMPIRETECANDY, @matt200 and @giomania (for the cliff notes). I'm sure there are others so than you. Great information, but cost me a lot of sleep late night reading...
