Camera For Front Door/Porch

[tone363]

Hey there,

So I currently have 4 Hikvision cameras on each corner of my house that I have had for a couple of years now and they work fine. They come in to a POE Switch and then a dedicated PC running Blue Iris.

What I have seen though over time is that there are some spots that my current setup does not capture. The way our front porch sits if a person hopped up the side of it and left the same way I would never get them. So I am looking for a camera that I can mount either right above our front door looking down or the opposite side of the porch facing the front door. I have not looked at cameras in a couple of years so open to suggestions on cameras and past experiences with front door cameras. Attaching image of front of house for reference.

Thanks!

Search by it's model number for additional discussion. I'm going to order from Andy at EmpireTech for my porch. It's a Starlight model so it has great low light capability, but it is a dome so direct sunlight exposure (UV) is not desirable.

Can currently be had from Andy's store for $119.69

Concur with the camera recommendation. I bought a HDBW4231F-AS a couple weeks ago from Andy. My front door faces North so the mount should never see direct sunlight.
