Hi everyone. Not sure if this is the best place to ask for help since it's technically an intro section (do let me know if it's more appropriate to ask somewhere else).
I live in a two-story house and I'm looking for some PoE cameras to put on the window ledge (one or two on the first floor and one or two on the second floor). I'll be mainly watching the front and back perimeter of the house for activity (passerbys) and if there's anyone coming. My house is near a dead end so I'll really just need to watch the front and left side (direction cars come in). Ideally I'm hoping the camera closest to the door will be able to see faces as anyone walks up to the house. I'd prefer not to have cameras outside since I'm not familiar with wiring outside at all.
Camera quality preference ideally 4K.
Price maybe $200 max per camera but do give me some budget options
I have a gaming computer that is always on so I'd like to ideally use that for recording vs using a second always-on dedicated system.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions on camera(s) and setup, or if you can point me at some threads that you feel are relevant.
Thank you!
