Wow.. The FoV makes a drastic difference. Thanks for your post, I'm actually going to be able to use it to make sure the cameras I intend on buying are going to be fit for id'ing up to the right distances. Is this typical? As in, is this typical across most cameras? The more telescopic the lens...

Yeah, there's so much to choose from. Someone suggested I just take a look at various types of camera captures and see what I like the most and try to gain an understanding which type of camera is going to suit what I'm trying to capture etc. Also for me to stick with 1 company. E.g. if I go...

The NVR I'm leaning towards is the Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2-8P. Seems to be best bang for buck around the £300 mark and one of the stronger nvrs from the Hikvision range. I think it's a model from 2016 but it looks like (based off of specs) it's still a strong contender, can someone confirm if...

I'm putting together a CCTV system for my parents house from scratch. I've already installed a fair bit of CAT6 cable in the past and I'm able to wire that fairly well and terminate the ends as needed. The house is a typical detached 4 bedroom building and so I think 4 cameras should be more...

Alright guys, It's going to be between Avtech and Samsung I guess, I've read your post somewhere else reccomending the Samsung from that Map website. I'll give them a ring and see what they think. I'm a little worried about the resolution being low on the samsung dvr that is going for £200 but...

Hey everyone. I've just acquired a new business and will be doing the cctv setup shortly. I'm a developer myself and I would say not a novice when it comes to setting up the software side of things for cctv systems and remote viewing (port forwarding, ddns etc) however I'm absolutely clueless...
