Hi
'
Im in the market for a good security surveillance system. These are my needs/plans:
Im going to need 3 cameras, I/F is a must due to the very dark exterior around the house.
2 cameras will be for front and rear doors. One needs to be able to cover a long distance and to focus for adjustment.
DVR recorder strategically placed.


Questions:
Is infrared technology worth it ??? How are wireless cameras powered up??
Should I pieced a system together on Ebay or Amazon or buy from one of the well known internet shops??
Suggestions on cameras and dvd brands/ internet sites will be appreciated and any other helpful tip....
