Home & Garden CCTV?

[Dan_1981]

Not sure if better in this forum or in computers & gagets.

After a reasonably cheap system to enable us to record our own garden and maybe one internal camera inside.

Not a great deal of idea on what we need / don't need.

Have seen something like this.....

But was also considering IP cameras? And using an extra hard drive in the PC to record?

Any suggestions?

Cheers, think I'll nip into Maplins and have a closer look.

Still hunting for the correct kit that I want to spend money on for this.

Can anyone provide a bit fo guidance in what to look for in a decent camera?

I'm not familiar with what constitutes a decent spec and what doesn't!

Cheers

Thanks for the detailed reply Henry.

You're about right pricewise - were hoping to spend a couple of hundred quid really. 2 camera set up - one to cover the back garden and a second to cover either inside or the front of the house, and a recorder to stick it all on.

I'll spend some time reading through your website with regard to camera specifics.
