I'd appreciate some advice and recommendations for wireless security camera systems.
I don't need super resolution or anything very fancy. I just want to set up a few wireless cameras outside my house to hopefully deter break-ins, porch theft, and vandalism, and also keep an eye on yard maintenance crew, and I'd like to do it on a pretty tight budget.
Here are my needs:
1. Wireless Cams. As it turns out, I have perfect exterior locations for the cameras under the eaves of my house which have easy access to power. But I do not want to run video cables, so they need to be wireless. At the same time, I've heard that 2.4ghz wireless security networks often interfere with home wifi routers, so I'd like a security system that runs on a different frequency if possible.
2. Decent resolution. Hopefully at least 520TVL.
3. Acceptable Range. Cameras will be located outside a brick & wood siding house, no more than 50-60 feet each from a centrally located receiver.
4. Wireless receiver/DVR. I don't need a big hard drive. I'm looking to save maybe 48-72 hours at most before writing over. I really just want a simple solution, and it would be nice if there was an easy way to transfer segments of video to a card so I could easily show it to police if necessary. I've seen systems that write to SD cards instead of HDDs, so maybe that's the way to go?
5. Budget. I want to stay under $400 for 3 cams plus the DVR/receiver.
I don't really care too much about remote connectivity from a PC or smartphone, but it would be a nice perk.
