Hello all.

I am a new member here, I recently purchased this equipment from Andy:
1x - NVR5208-8P-4KS2 Dahua NVR
6x - IPC-HDW5231R-Z Dahua Starlight Cameras
6x - PFA130-E Junction Boxes

I am looking at info for camera placements, and how to mount these to the vinyl soffits. I know where I am putting the NVR inside the house. I just need to best angles for 6 cameras.

This is the path to the front door where you can't see it from the trees.

What are some tips and suggestions to pull this job off?

Thanks so much in advance!

Suggestions for how to mount Dahua Jbox on soffit?

Remember a number of us really like to have the camera by the door close to face level to get a better chances of good facial IDs.
 
Thanks for the link. I've been scouring the forums and found a TON of helpful information. Any idea on other camera placements? Also with that front-door picture. Where would I put the camera?
