WARNING: If you used (or attempted to use) a Debit or Credit Card to purchase from their site I highly advise cancelling the card ASAP.
:
Today I was hit with over $1,100 in charges from Cricket Wireless on a virtual credit card that I had only ever used on their site (and was declined). It was declined for unrelated reasons (funded from wrong account) so I ended up actually paying through PayPal. I used the card on their site on the 4th of this month. As I mentioned in the OP, folks have been complaining about the issues with LaView's site being hacked in other threads. I tried being safe by using a virtual credit card that would look down to the first merchant it was used at. Since in this case the charge at LaView originally didn't go through it never got locked to that merchant. I really should have closed it down but simply forgot... |

It is a good deal in terms of price. Though I would highly recommend not going wifi for your security cameras - wired IP PoE will be more reliable.
* Atleast 5MP camera or preferably 4K if you can
* Camera with Audio recording
* Recording FPS should be atleast 20 fps.
*Atleast 2TB HD. Storage are relatively cheap now a days
* Watch out for the camera view. It should be atleast close to 90-100 degree horizontal and not any less
* Night vision of atleast 100 ft with 15+ IR lens
* I say preferably POE + NVR instead of old school RJ45 + DVR.
Any security system with the above baseline (assuming 4 cameras) should run atleast $400-800.
Now ask urself if it's worth spending that money to protect your family and home.
That's my 2 cents - peace 🎅

I wanted to note a few counter points:
1) At least 5MP camera or preferably 4K if you can:
Counter point - the size of the pixel matters, especially in low light conditions where a 2MP or some of the newer 4MP cameras can out perform 5MP, 6MP and 8MP cameras. So resolution is only part of the equation.
2) Camera with Audio recording
3rd party wiretap / audio recording may not be legal in your state .. check the laws on this. Yes - I know audio is nice.. but this wiretapping law stuff can get messy...
3) Recording FPS should be atleast 20 fps
For most professional security camera installations they have traditionally used less fps ( even 7 fps ) to save disk space. In general 15 fps seems to work well enough for most setups - and there are many current 8MP camera models in the kits we have been looking at that spec out as 15 fps. ( example the new 8MP bullet cameras from Lorex / Montavue spec as 15 fps + AI calculations.. vs the non-AI versions which can do 30 fps )
4) Watch out for the camera view. It should be at least close to 90-100 degree horizontal and not any less.
FOV, effective resolution and ID distance are all related. Wider FOV = shorter ID distance. Too wide FOV = distortion on the edges of the image. Pick the cameras that give you the coverage you need. ( see the ID distance list .. ). Personally I prefer a longer ID distance and a narrower FOV and more cameras vs a short ID distance. Only wide FOV camera I like is the ones by the doors at face level.
5) Night vision of at least 100 ft with 15+ IR leds
Do not trust the vendor specs. If the ID distance is 20 feet - does it really matter if you can see the IR led light from 100 feet away?? Also with regards to the 15+ IR leds - some models have larger more powerful single, double, or triple IR leds. Also there are now some camera models coming without IR leds as they are designed to be in color mode all the time.
Definitely plan to spend more than you initially expected for a decent security camera setup. In general avoid the cheapest stuff you see...

Great points by you and bulldog... reps for that.
I've had been running cameras, and Zoneminder for several years and you guys have some great points.

Can you recommend a low , medium , and high budget camera system. Also what kind do you use?
I have mostly a Dahua OEM international set... much of which I picked up from Andy at ipcamtalk
Please see the Lorex and Montavue threads .. see the references on the past deals which have wiki's I tell people to check out, and the ipcamtalk notes.
wireless = WiFi ( data )
So cameras still need to be wired to power.
wirefree is the term for WiFi ( data ) + battery ( power )
