    Ok Amcrest PROHD turned up. Its a little smaller and does not have the big ariel on the back. The IRs are also set flush behind a glass surround and not like buldging leds on the ANNKE. Also has a line in and line out over and above the ANNKE. I have to say this is a whole step up. Problem is...

    Thanks that will probably be my final choice if I am not happy with the Amcrest. The DS-2CD2432F-IW is a static camera and I want to play around with one that pans up down left right etc. Part of the fun messing around. Jerry

    I am still playing around with internal cameras at the moment. It will be a while until I look for something outside. I must admit that model would be a contender but as you say I would be looking to source it at a lower price. I still like the idea of initially playing with something inside...

    Ok so looking at the HIKVISION DS-2CD2432F should I be getting the one with a 2.8 or 4mm lens ? I guess if I want the widest field of view then maybe the 2.8mm one ? Alternatively maybe I should look at one of these So much choice :) Jerry

    Thanks for the reply and explaining it. One thing I have noticed about the ANNKE is that sometimes it disconnects and I have to restart the app to reset it. I will play around with it for a couple of days. As you say for simple P&P its probably the simplest solution. Jerry

    Ok having read a little more I guess I can see some of the limitations i.e. remote server required. So is this a better punt ? Twice the price :( Jerry

    Wanted something to watch over the birds whilst we were away lol For just over £40 I whent for a ANNKE Sparkle 1. Now I know many might think its junk but for the money and as first time users I must admit its not bad. 720p seems ok and I have it wired not WiFi. I like the way it moves 360...
