    If I had that money I would have done that already..I'm trying to stay under $200 if possible. I'm not guarding my house and kids, just some thieving employees. So I dont need to spend a lot

    Yes, I have found a Zosi 4 camera + DVR (without hard drive) for $100 on Amazon with good reviews. I will need a $50 hard drive and a $25 wireless router to wirelessly access the system. And these cameras are not PoE, so I'll need very long AC extension cords or a PoE adapter...

    Yes, I dont want remote access. I want local access offline only. The cameras are going up in a remote warehouse. But I dont want a monitor, I want 24/7 recording and local access to a live feed while I'm at work, at the cheapest price possible. I originally looked for a camera with a sd card...

    I found this very cheap Zosi 4 camera CCTV+ DVR system (without hard drive) for $105 with good reviews on Amazon (I know many reviews on Amazon are fake). https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00NBT0UVG/ref=psdcmw_7161092011_t3_B07X91NKYF But it's not wireless and I need wireless access to my phone...

    Hard wired cameras are far more stable than wifi is, so I'm thinking I would like to get two PoE cameras with sd card slots that support at least 128gb and a cheap wireless router to connect my phone to its wifi and access the live view and recordings. I can deal with finicky sd card recording...

    I'm not concerned with privacy considering this is at work, and there are a host of other cameras on the property. I'm still not sure of correct terminology. Months ago I tested a simple direct connection with two of my offline phones using the app "ip webcam" and my phones hotspot, but that...

    I would have to buy another PC. I only have one functioning laptop. I prefer to access the feed through a phone. I want two other people to view the feed and recordings. That would be easiest through a phone app or rtsp

    Help setting up a small system

    Now I'm leaning towards getting a $50 DVR, a $25 router and two $50 ip cameras. Or $150 Swann 2 cam system. That should do it. I tried to find a system for $100 by using p2p ip direct cameras with sd cards bypassing the router and NVR, but finding a camera with those features is difficult...

    I'm going to start researching analog cameras. I stayed away from them because I thought they were out dated with poor video quality. Thanks

    That $150 two camera Swann looks nice, but I assume I would need to connect them to a wireless router to access the live feed. Also I don't want to use a monitor, i want to view live feeds and recorded videos through a phone or PC

    That's good to know, the 2mp cameras are also cheaper. I dont need to identify the people on the video because I know all of them. So clarity is not the biggest issue. I guess the NVR or DVR are the most practical solutions. If I use a DVR I have the added expense of a router so I can...

    If I had $500 to blow on this my decision would be easy. I'm trying to keep this below $200

    Yes I did initially, but thought the video quality wouldn't be the same as a 5mp camera. Am I wrong on the video quality?

    I'm brand new to security camera setups so bear me. I started researching the topic a few weeks ago, and I couldn't find the answers to my questions, so I came here for help. I want to set up a small 2-3 camera setup in a isolated section of my warehouse that is local only, I dont need or want...
