I got a deal. A while back on the 4 cam system for 300. They work well and record on motion or schedule. You can also put it out to the net but I never did. Fixed position was the limitation but indoor or outdoor and can be extended with standard rj59 cable

D link used to sell a kick ass cam but I haven't been able to find one anywhere. Dcs 5300 or the dcs 5300g ( wireless ). The d link had pan tilt and digital zoom for 3-4 hundred.
