What's the least I should expect to pay for one, including the SW, and what do folks here recommend? Is this a decent option for this application, or are there better ones? And how do these compare to setting up a similar setup using a Raspberry Pi with attached camera? I bought both a while back but never got around to setting them up. Access to an AC outlet is not an issue so it won't need batteries or solar or anything like that. And I'm fairly technically proficient, e.g. Linux.
That said, if there's a reasonably affordable solution that does use batteries and solar and is therefore completely wireless, I'd consider it, including using an RPi.
Can someone suggest a wired camera that captures movement at night with clarity? One important criteria, I don't want to pay any subscription.
Thanks!!
1. Either use a "Power over Ethernet" if you at all can, or use solar. Some cameras come with solar panel. NO BATTERIES
2. Then, get a camera that accepts SD card, and install at least 128GB. That is $15.
3. Get 4k 8MPix resolution. Cost very little extra. Allows good zoom and pan within the picture.
4. Get camera that can be ordered with different lenses. Most have from 2.8mm to 12mm
5. Never get a bullet camera. It is very easily vandalized. Even inside if you have a break-in. Use a dome with vandal proof polycarbonate dome.
6. Good compression Pick H.265 (+)
5. No DVR. just use the onboard SD card, and free software on PC
Example:
HikVision DS-2CD2183G0 or ds-2cd2185fwd ( at $134:
- PoE
- 4k, 8MPix
- 128GB SD card as well as NAS
- IK10 vandalism protection

also not sure how 134$ is the same as 70$ in your mind...
It only records when an event happens / motion is detected. For example, I can't just open the app and rewind to 3:45pm yesterday and fast forward through the day.
How? Roughly 0.2MB per second at 15 frames per second, a two month storage on camera would mean:
