I am in need of a camera system for my church. The budget is around $600. I am having trouble finding a system that includes cameras with audio. I found this system today from Samsung - SDH-C5100. Sams Club has it for $589. The DVR has 4 audio inputs, but none of the 10 cameras have microphones. I like the 16 channels for future expansion. At this time I am looking at 5 outdoor cameras, and up to 4 indoor cameras. The 4 indoor are the ones that need microphones.
Does anyone have any input on this system, or something comparable? I would prefer something that has a warranty, and is returnable.
I have also been looking at POE systems and could make my own cables, but it seems most of the ready systems are coax with BNC connectors. Is audio possible over Cat5 cable?
I know this is not a high quality system, but I have to work within the budget.
Thanks for any and all recommendations!
Mike
