Just joined the forum - so much great information here - thanks to all of the helpful members!!
I have a small commercial property with cameras that are 5+ years old that I will be upgrading. I recently purchased this 6 camera 4K kit with NVR from Costco after seeing a recommendation here:
IP Camera System with 6 Ultra HD 4K Security Cameras & Lorex Secure Connectivity
I hooked it up at home and the cameras are amazing. It came with 6 cameras so I need to purchase 2 more. One will be inside a small rectangular building, maybe 500-700 sq feet. Normally there are no lights on inside the room when no one is there, so I need a good night vision camera. Seems like the Dahua Starlight is the best option, but there are so many different versions I would appreciate some guidance.
I would like to get a camera with the following:
- great night vision
- can record audio
- has SD card backup option
- appropriate focal length/zoom for the size of room
I toyed with the idea of getting something with PTZ but I think that's probably overkill for this small room (although it would be nice to pan around and check on various equipment etc placed in different areas)
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
