    Hikvision Product Comparison

    Good idea, but I have thought to list only the most popular models and price of which is below 200$ (ok for consumers). But, I'm open for ideas, one expensive model wouldn't be bad at all. If you know one, please tell me or add to the list directly. :)

    At least to Finland, shipping is 20$ and Amazon will charge you the customs fee 16$.. so the ebay switch will be much cheaper. Usually eBay has cheaper shipping than Amazon, you should remember this.
