front door to tv camera advice?

kindalen

hi all,
looking at putting a camera at my front door and want to feed it through my amp to tv,s round my house?
any advice suggestions?
b/w or colour is fine,i dont need to record anything.
my two ideas so far are to install a wired camera from the roof soffit or would it be possible to install a doorbell camera with a wireless signal sender?

thanks.

It all depends on the viewing angle from the soffit to the front door, if it's too steep you may have trouble catching someones face and be only able to see their heads.
Also if it's mounted under the soffit you will need a varifocal lens (3.5 - 8mm) with 560 tvl and some IR lighting.
To distribute it around the house get yourself an rf modulator and pick a channel that is 2 channels away from anything else as you may get interference
