Home security camera system

Been looking at options for either three or four camera Hikvision system.

Can someone advise if 6mp is preferable to 4mp?
Are Darkfighters worth considering?
Anything to consider?

I have had a quote for £970 to fit, 4x DS-2CD2365G1-i, 4 Chan NVR, trunking, setup, config for mobile devices.

Does that sound reasonable??

Yes that sounds like a very fair price. Take the 6mp if the price is the same. I love my Darkfighters.

Cheers, what size HD should I be looking for?
Chap mentioned setup for motion, showed me some video from today & last night, you can clearly see a feline strutting towards his drive.

4TB WD Purple should be fine for 4 cameras. I run mine 24/7 recording, gives me about a month before it over-writes.

@g40steve I am looking at a similar setup, have you had yours installed yet ?

Monday being fitted, just deciding on final position of the last two cameras this weekend.

What model NVR is it?

g40steve Publish time 1-12-2019 21:32:56

Well took roughly eight hours to fit,

DS-7600 NVR with Seagate 2TB Skyhawk drive,

4 x DS-2CD2365G1-I cameras,

Outside cabling run in conduit & very pleased with quality of finish & fit.

Now have front door, side extension & back door & other side of extension views. Set up for motion capture & all bushes & trees excluded from recording.

Will up load some shots when I get some time over next few days.
