Hello!

This is more of a hobby project and I am addicted, I want more and better cameras. :)

I finally installed IPC-T5442T-ZE (2.7 - 12mm zoom lens) camera under the deck and moved my 2nd Lorex LNB8111 (4mm F1.6 / Fixed) down under the overhang. I would like to add a 3rd camera (medium angle? 4mm like the Lorex I have?) on the other side of the overhang, which would be fairly close to the back door. What do you guys think about the camera placement and focal length used?

Thank you for any advice!

Looks good in the day. What does it look like at night with no exterior lighting?
