Installed one of my new ip cameras today which watches over my zed.

 

Was a fairly easy job to do as it was an upgrade to an old analog system I had so took about an hour to get it properly setup.

 

Done a lot of research on the CCTV market and my preferred system is hikvision so I've managed to blag a 3MP ip camera

which records straight to my synology nas.

 

Anyways here's a screen shot of the view it gives me :

 

Looks great Lee. Very clear picture :thumbup1: Is the night view good?

Good idea that mate, didn't stop you running the postman over though!!

Not being sarcastic, but what does that all mean starting with an ip camera? How much would a kit like this cost me? It's a great picture! Show us a night one as well.

The camera is retail about £175 each but I managed to pick a new one up for £100 plus postage.

 

Normal analogue cameras generally have a fixed resolution and are very low quality but a move to

a complete digital system means the picture quality is greatly increased and this particular camera

is 3 mega pixels.

 

 

Night vision looks good also mate. :yes:

It could be better if a bought a stand out, the white wall reflects a lot of the IR light and decreases visibility.

 

I have another one of these that I plan to point at my back door too, but i'll need to run a new cable first.

I would either speak to your neighbour about that camera or move its angle so it's not filming thier front door, if you haven't already. I'd be a bit pissy if my neighbour was recording images of my door step without my consent.

They know about it and to be honest they are not fussed as its a bit of protection for there own property.

That's alright then, it's always best to ask.

Nice work there Lee.....:thumbup:
