Hi All. I am looking at installing a new system at home, probably Hikvision based upon recommendation from a friend who likes their interface. Up to 8 cameras, although starting with 2 or 3 for now. Usual coverage will be target: front and back of house, one inside, and maybe inside a shed as well. All cameras will be connected to various switches that are all Cat6 connected back to hub. NVR will also connect to a switch.
I note that going for the latest models seems to be the usual recommendation but do I really need that? Surely what was good enough several years ago will still work and suit my needs? I only want basic elements, with I guess 4mp cameras and maybe 2 weeks storage and want to do it on as best as possible budget.
Any advice will be appreciated.
Thank you
