    Intro and questions

    OK another update and a request for more experienced advice. After doing a lot more reading, plenty of "what if" studies in the IPVM camera calculator, and taking better measurements of my front yard, I've determined I have the following requirements: I want to be able to IDENTIFY suspicious...

    Intro and questions

    I just remembered this comment on there being fog or a dirty lens on my existing system. To close the loop unfortunately that's not the case. I cleaned the lens after this comment and didn't see any real improvement, and there was no fog that night. What I think is happening is that the...

    Intro and questions

    Thanks for all the responses! First of all, thanks @mat200 for mentioning Installation Pics, hadn't been aware of that resource and I intend to dive (too?) deep into all the setups as I'm really lacking in practical knowledge of how to run cables through the house and the yard and it would be...

Somewhat to my surprise I was able to get...

    Thanks TVille and wittaj! The 5442 series looks great and what you're saying tracks well with and focuses what I've been reading (i.e. avoid marketing terms and focus on the hard numbers, pay attention to sensor size and optical zoom capabilities). In particular I wanted to dig into the point...

    Intro and questions

    Hi, I've been browsing this forum and various other online resources trying to get a better sense on how to improve my security camera setup. My main goal at the moment is to improve monitoring of my front yard and in particular the region around our 2 cars that are parked on the street in front...
