Hi! I'm new to IP Cam Talk and IP cams in general, but quite well versed in networking in general. I just bought a HikVision DS-2CD2532F-IS for my first camera, to cover the front door, and I'm quite pleased with the quality I'm seeing while testing it out. I hope to run the final wiring this weekend and get it set in place. I like it so much, in fact, that I'm probably going to add 1-2 more HikVision cameras to cover more of my home's exterior. (I'm using a simple single POE injector for now but if I add more I assume I'll want to do a POE switch or POE-enabled NVR) Currently I'm using the Hik-recommended free apps on my iPhone to check in on the camera and review footage (recorded to an on-board 32gb mini-SD card). I think I can use the same software if I add a couple more cameras, too, but it seems like an actual NVR might be more handy if I'm using more than the one camera. An NVR would let me connect to the TV, as well, making viewing the camera(s) a single click of the remote away for her (not that bringing up the iPad app is that hard). I see lots of inexpensive NVR options on Amazon, but most seem to top out at 2mp and I'd like to get the most from these 3mp cameras... plus many complain of issues using anything other than Internet Explorer and I prefer different browsers (and my wife mostly uses her Mac so Mac compatibility would be good). Amazon offers the Hikvision DS-7608NI-SE/P for $369 which seems excellent (and supports Hik cams perfectly at 3mp), but it's more channels than I need and more money than I'd like to spend. Are there any good, inexpensive options that are wife-friendly, and that also work with iPhones and iPads for monitoring (and occasional playback)? It would likely be in the master bedroom (connected to that TV) so something small and quiet would be important. Thanks for any tips!
