I'm a new member looking to install a couple of outdoor cameras after some strange happenings in the neighborhood. I almost pulled the trigger on camera system in a box but thankfully decided to find a forum and learn a little first. I've been in IT for over 12 years so I think I will catch on quickly. Pulling Cat5e shouldn't be an issue either. I'm not looking for anything super high-end but want something of decent quality.
I think I have settled on a Dahua 4216 or 5216 (non POE) for the NVR. Not sure where I'm going to purchase from yet though... I hope to get in touch with a member who sells quality items for a decent price, it seems there are a few on here.
I have no clue what cameras to start off with. I think I am going to start out with 2 just to get things going. That will also help me fine tune my camera needs based off their performance and can relocate them to other areas as I expand...
Looking forward to learning more.
