best buy security video cameras image
Bp1066
I want to put 1 or more security cameras in my yard for many reasons. I want to know how much this will cost and where i can buy this. I want something that records and stores footage so when i go on vacation I could view the footage when i arrive home. Any tips or sugestions?
Thanks.
I want this to be as cheap as possible so i don't think running a cord through my yard would work.

To recorder the video you need a computer with lot of hard drive space or a video recorder - this can be digital or analog.
I use a DVR similar to this one:

You need to add a hard drive. One of these is probably good enough for around 30 days of recording:

but a 500 gig is probably a better idea. Set the image capture so when nothing is going on, there is only 1 still every 4 or more seconds, then set motion detection areas to trigger the recording to go to real time - that will revert to the 1 per four seconds (or whatever you choose) after about 15 seconds of no motion in the detection area.
Then comes the cameras... Higher resolution or night vision or wireless or rated for outdoor add to the cost. Remember - wireless is only wireless for the video signal - you still need power for the camera. If wired, the low-res are probably the cheapest cameras you will find with decent resolution.
This is probably as cheap as it gets - the night vision "throw" is not very far...

If you only need it for a one-time deal and install the camera under the roof-eve, you can use a indoor camera - but just so you know, it won't last as long as a camera rated for outdoor use.

good resolution and long throw on the night vision.
I am not aware of single channel DVRs... since you have 4 channels, you can use up to 4 cameras - but you do not need to fill all the channels.
If you are that paranoid, you might also consider a battery back up - the cameras and the DVR need to plug into it.
Since we don't know the cameras you want to use, we don't know the power they draw - but this

should last a couple of hours with just the DVR.
Be sure to install the DVR in a place that is (1) difficult to find and (2) attached to something solid so it cannot be easily removed.

We have multiple security cameras and would like to record on all of them their day to day findings... what is the best way to get them all to record without having to buy multiple recording devices?
Answer
You will have to buy a DVR (Digital Video Recorder), these record straight to a hard drive. Do a search for DVR
