It would be amazing if it doesn’t disintegrate if it rains, too.

    Anything that supports ONVIF. I like Hikvision for their quality, price, and web interface for setup. But don’t trust any IP camera. Make sure the Mac and or IP address is blocked at your router.

    There are different night visions to pick from. There’s ir night vision and white led lit night vision. I prefer ir night vision because I don’t want visible led lights on all night. You get a better picture at night although its black and white.

    However many color night vision cameras do really well without any light source at all. I tried both and it’s more of a preference so I can’t say which one will work for you.

      Reconsider hikvision: they were recently dropped as an option for many organizations due to some new data leak, and removed from gov buildings in a number of countries.

        And that’s why you don’t let them contact the Internet.

        Managing IoT risk is an easy no brainer if people bother to try.

        That’s why I said don’t trust it and block them at your router.

        As long as you block them at your router Hikvision and Dahau are much better than the other brands at the same price. I’ve tried 6 different brands. I’ve been slowly moving them to all Hikvision.

      you shouldn’t block them by MAC. you should put them on a VLAN dedicated to cams, with no route to the internet. only computer connected to it is your NVR
