Hi, after a number of attempted break ins and theft of property out side unit we want to upgrade our cctv.
At the moment the place is covered in cctv cameras but are only really any good in day light and close up. As theft tends to happen at night the camera footage has always been crap.
So we are looking at getting one external high quality camera. We would like it to -
1- Auto track (Be able to sit watching one area unless something moves in this area and then we want it to track it)
2- Read a number plate (From 100 meters away and at night .This will be where the camera needs to be always watching unless tracking something)
3 - Obviously high quality. No point in a camera that you cant make out number plate etc.
4- record for at least 3 weeks before it over rights.
So any help on what system to use, camera etc you would recommend ? IS a £1000 budget realistic for one camera that can do this? or we talking lots more? i dont really want to spend more but end of the day if it costs more it costs more ! i have no idea on cost so help on this also please.
Im also happy to install myself but again we will consider paying a pro if rates are fair.
Many thanks
