    Interesting topic. Cheap quick solution. two routers, one for the home network and one for the camera network. If they fry the camera router, problem will not spread to the home network. If they connect to port they can only try hack access to your other cameras, they would have to hack your...

    What is the best PTZ Ip camera that Amazon sells in the $800 range?

    I do not own any horses :P I think it would be helpful if we compiled some information as the Must read before asking any type of questions. That is popular in forums and if members read it they will be able to ask better questions. Plus it is easy to direct them to a particular post? I am...

    What is the best PTZ Ip camera that Amazon sells in the $800 range?

    You would have much more if your members where not running away the new blood. People have to start somewhere, kindly pointing out to people where to begin does not require any skill. I think you would be amaze at how many more people you would retain if they had a positive experience.

    What is the best PTZ Ip camera that Amazon sells in the $800 range?

    Not for nothing, this is the type of post that is unfortunate in forums. Is it truly that difficult to answer a question without playing the 101 questions game? For example "what type of camera is good from amazon in the 800 dollar range" Of course I would not expect anyone to go to amazon...

    Camera recommendation based on needs

    Awesome look at that already got reply, thanks for the prompt reply. Will look into that PT as the price point is what the doctor ordered. Let me read a little on Hikvision so that I can put some models up and you guys can tell me if they would work for the areas that I showed on the pictures.

    Opinions on Ubiquiti (Unifi) Cameras?

    I just looked into their forum and saw that someone recently put in a request to have ONVIF implemented. So they must still not have it. I was under the impression that the cameras where RTSP compliant but they may not be either. Now that I have been learning about IP cameras, I must admit...

    Opinions on Ubiquiti (Unifi) Cameras?

    I seen lots of complaints on the 720's. But have seen no complaints from the people owning the new G3's, however while I do not know much about specs. I do know this about unifi, go to their forum and share a problem with a camera and they address it. I do not work for them by the way. I have...

    Del Boy, as mando209 mentioned, I made a mistake. I thought you made a comment twice when in fact klasipca mentioned it once and then you made similar comment. I can swallow my pride "My pride fellas, will not swallow anything else :)" and apologize for jumping the gun. While I do not have much...

    Advice on cameras i should be looking at.

    Moving on with he show :) The mini PTZ V2. looks really good, but I am concerned with reliability. I did read on Amazon that if one separates the power that the camera works without issues. Would not mind having two of those, the rest may be Hikvision. I will do some more reading over the...

    Advice on cameras i should be looking at.

    I did not see you provide any help on the thread, in fact your only post was to mumble something about noobs. I think I can live without your help. Heck I almost wished you would have ignored my post, but then again, you need to bump that post count, doubt you would pass a chance on saying...

    Advice on cameras i should be looking at.

    Very well put. My days of tweaking constantly are over, I was just talking recently to a friend about the good old overclocking days. I gave that up about 15 years ago, where as he still loves squeezing every MHZ he can from his CPU's. I do not mind a week or two of tweaking, but after that, I...

    Advice on cameras i should be looking at.

    Your videos and pictures speak as to the quality of the cameras you favor. Based on those I would say that they are great cameras and certainly worth considering. Of course there is more to a good camera than a great picture, but only time determines how good cameras truly are. However, I do...

    Advice on cameras i should be looking at.

    ROFLMAO I guess that is as good reason as any :) Thanks for the laugh. When I first looked at IP cameras, you could not purchase one with less than $600. Their prices have drop tremendously, with that said. There must be good mainstream cameras in the US. If anyone has some suggestions, I...

    I purchase a lot on amazon and warranty never been an issue. In addition I purchase all my electronics with my amex Blue, as long as I do not buy extended warranty if anything dies in the second year they refund the full amount or they could have me send item for repairs. I have never had to...

    Question, I am reading a lot about people's bad experience with some of the chinese companies. I am shocked that one company as a condition to warranty they expect people not to leave negative feedback. Why do you guys deal with people like that, in my opinion that is a bad business practice...

    Advice on cameras i should be looking at.

    Q2U, $150 is not unreasonable. The original Ubiquiti G3 that I was looking at was in that price range. I do have somne dark areas in the back of my home. What camera for $150 or less would you recommend? Thanks for the video, that is far better than what I currently have.
