best do it yourself security camera image
ferretkiss
I would like to put some security cameras around the outside of the house, because of trouble with the neighbors. I would like to view what the cameras see, later. I think I would need at least three cameras, one on the car in the street, one on the front porch area, and one on the back yard area. Or maybe two in the front.
What is the best way to do this?
About how much would it cost?
Answer
It depends what you want to do with the video.
An inexpensive consumer 4-channel surveillance DVR is about $300.
Add in a 500 gig hard drive for about $70 (records the video).
4 cameras - Average $100 each for outdoor rated, night vision, so $400... budget around $1,000 for a low-end, multi-camera, system.
The expensive part is the labor. Are you planning to install it yourself? How will the camera's wires get from the camera to the DVR? Thinking "wireless" cameras? They still need electricity - so is there power where you want to install the cameras?
Actually, "wireless" security cameras use more wires than wired ones... The camera needs power (1 wire) and transmits video wirelessly to a base station. The base station needs power and a wire to the DVR. Total = 3 "wires". A wired camera has one long "combo" cable that carries video and power.
How do you want to monitor that video? The DVR has a video-out connection that can connect to any TV with a working, available, composite (yellow RCA jack) plug. More expensive DVRs can be added to a computer network...

is it legal for a corporation to use security camera footage to evaluate employee preformance?
Matt
I work for a large corporation and recently they have implemented a system, where by they use security camera footage to now on a bi-daily basis to gauge our performance. I never consented to have this footage be used to gauge my performance at work, I was wondering if this is at all legal, because in my opinion, it doesn't seem like this is a legitimate business pratice. Any help would be appreciated.
Answer
what makes you think your consent is needed?
what makes you think your opinion of what is a legitimate business practice carries any weight?
you obviously have a high opinion of yourself and your importance to this employer, I hope you are correct because if you are wrong and continue with this attitude you will find yourself unemployed rather quickly....
if you do your job the way you are expected to all this footage will do is verify the fact that you are a good employee, if they see anything other than that; it is YOUR fault....
