    Hikvision? Dahua? Narrowing Down Camera Options!

    Friends, Soooooo many cameras to choose from and I and still lost even though I've read a bit online and seen a few youtube video examples. I had purchased 4MP Swann Camera package and when testing them at night – it was almost pointless in having them. You couldn't even make out if someone...

    Totally Confused... No idea what cameras to choose.. The more I read, the more I get confused.

    Struggling to find some good quality cameras... The more I read online and forums, the more I get confused and what to get.... I tried out the packaged Swann NHD818's... but their quality at night isn't the greatest.. Close distance fine however 3-5 meters across the road was terrible and...
