First of all, stellar forum! So much to read so little time.
I hope someone knowledgeable is able to help.
First of all my needs,
Located in europe.
Parents inlaw: 3 camers (outdoors) and somewhere to record, preferably saved in the cloud (dropbox,onedrive, google drive or whatever free service)
Personal: single camera and somewhere to record, almost no light at night.
I'll enumerate my questions, so it's easier to answer and keep an overview.
1) Is there a better camera for the value than the Hikvision DS-2CD2332-I / DS-2CD3332-I (same camera right) now? Last time I read up on this, a few years back, the recommendation was from networkcameracritic (RIP). Also, for the camera you recommend what is a good price?
2) A dedicated desktop is not an option. Is there a cheaper stable solution than a dedicated NVR/DVR? for example perhaps raspberry pii setup or something like that? What would you recommend on a budget? (a poe switch, dvr/nvr and 3 cameras plus import taxes and shipping makes this quite expensive very fast).
3) If there is no other stable viable solution than a dedicated dvr/nvr, which do you recommend I get?
Thank you so much.
