Security cameras

[gh1950]

I have just developed a critical need for interior security cameras.

What is the best in terms of

1. availability

2. storage capacity

3, ease of installation

cost is not much of a consideration, I want the best, especially in terms of resolution. I see videos on line all the time, and the resolution is so low you can't tell who is in it.

Any advice on quirks would be greatly appreciated.

We use Reolink at work. Simple and effective.

Are you going to run Ethernet for POE connections or is WiFi good enough?

Probably Wi Fi,

SimpliSafe has pretty dependable cameras. I actually have their indoor cameras mounted outside using their outdoor kit. They have since come out with true outdoor cameras.

Wyze cameras are easy to install and work great at a really good price

I've honestly had them all through the years, from Ring cams to Kuna. If you can get past it being a Chinese company, EzViz has been by far the best WiFi cams we've ever had. They even have one now for outside that is pan/tilt/zoom with motion tracking. The clarity at night is also unmatched even when comparing against the big brands. The oldest camera I have is now 7 years old and still works just as well as it did from day 1 and it's been in extreme cold and dry heat in Utah to the humidity and rain here in Georgia. Good consistent connection with cloud storage options or you can ignore that and use a micro SD card. No subscription required.

If you’re talking about for a business, look at Avigilon. Great cameras and great software.

Nest cam indoor. You can pay for face detection and 60 days of history separately if you want.
