Hi,
Looking for info and recommendations for products in video surveillance home indoors (perhaps outdoors too).
I have a short list of what I believe to required/ desired qualities... please point out if I am overlooking something vital or something I should consider.
Quality of footage should be enough to identify persons and see what they are doing .. (distance few meters .. perhaps more if I also place outdoors)
camera should be small enough so that it can be hidden.
motion, light, heat etc. sensors would be cool, also sensor must be small enough to be hidden.
Night vision would be nice, with automation to select between normal and night modes.
ability to transfer footage to a server on the internet with some regime .. would be shame if criminals ransack my home and they take footage with them.
operation on 12v or 24v dc highly desirable as it enables recording while electricity is cut off.
Nanny cams are a low end solution (cheap, poor quality of pic/video (?) limited capabilities/ features) .. I have not really looked into these products yet.. I figured out I better post here to find out what features I should really be looking for.
Thanks for taking time to read/ answer. Be safe!
