Simple CCTV system needed.

[EINSIGN]

Any recommendations on a simple CCTV system for home/office use that can be remotely monitored. Maybe emailing or storing static images when motion is detected.

The physical install, wiring up etc is no problem for me but I am not an IT person so get a bit lost with the software side of things… Been looking at http://www.abelcam.com/en/cameras

There are seemingly thousands of systems available in eBay and the like but which is actually any good? Too much choice!

Thanks.

Why not just set up a webcam? Easy to view remotely, cheap. In fact, you probably already have all you need to set this up.

Because I dont mind paying for better hardware that can also be used outdoors etc.

That wasn't in your brief.

zonealarm if someone in your office knows a bit about linux.
You can set motion detection zones, etc and it's free.
