Over that distance its going to be very hard. How wide is the field of view going to be? What are the lighting conditions?
Number plates are even harder and i would only ever recommend a dedicated reg camera. They are provide a very dark picture that usually on the registration plate can be seen on. They are also not cheap!
Any decent camera with a high res might catch some plates if it is zoomed in tight but it depends on the driveway opening.

Well the problem is people keep helping themselves to cars parked on the road/drives. Absolutely all of the them drive past the house. Plus I'm at a "T" so some drive head on towards it.Number plates are even harder and i would only ever recommend a dedicated reg camera.

We think they are turning up in a car and helping themselves to a 2nd.
So I'd like to monitor all 3 directions, and then another just for my drive/cars. Idea being if they take my car I get a nice shot of them from the "drive camera" and one of the others will show what car they arrived in.

Problem there is his cans are all overt. If they see cameras on a house around here you can expect to be targeted for lots of antisocial behavior. Cos your helping the pigs innit.Munter said:

Aye. Was hoping someone might have seen/know of something useful. I'm sure 42 know their stuff. But as none of their advertised stuff fit what I was looking for (which I grant you may be impossible), I thought I'd ask see if anybody knew of anything.Gassing Station | Homes, Gardens and DIY | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
