    HP EliteDesk good to run BI?

    If its a matter of spending a little more to get a much better option I'm for it. I would rather overbuild than under build and have to change later. Should i look at an i9 or a newer gen? the 6th gen i7 seems to run almost the same but about $100 bucks more

    Theres actually already a carriage light in between the garage doors but I have issues with the best cam not going to night vision with it on. Then the camera only sees as far as 10 feet or so. I would LOVE to have a camera hidden at the street! Any suggestions? I will be re landscaping that...

    I think one overview camera would be ideal. I didn’t know about the masking whil recording thank you. I’m going to watch for a computer on eBay and order up the one varifocal for the time being. Thanks for all the great info everyone.

    Not disagreeing at all. This is why I ask because I’m ignorant to the stuff. But I know you get what you pay for and I would rather pay more now then later lol

    the 8mp i was looking at was a variable focus so it would do it optically. However, if i'm getting it right, that would still require a larger aperture and slow shutter speed as it zoomed in so wouldnt matter much.

    HAHA yep, so you answer my question. I used to do photography many years ago so I have a good understanding of f stops/shutter speed etc. I will stay away from the color for sure! Thank you. Saved me money and frustration!

    Thank you, very much the advice i was looking. The camera in the video is a larger sensor than the 4mp low light i posted and it still has issues huh? I dont know why i wasn't thinking about motion blur. Does it work the same way a slr camera would with an aperture and shutter speed? As...

    Sounds good thank you! I will try the varifocal first and see what it looks like. I think i really just have to figure out what MP/sensor size/lens size combo i need for what i want. I'm slightly lost on the conversion to determine pixel size.

    Well I did learn a lot so it's not all that bad and maybe not lost but unsure.. I'm ditching the nest cloud based garbage and began the dive into a POE system. I live in a ranch house so fairly straight forward about 50 ft from the street. We have no street lights and no sidewalks. Our...
