Single camera & dvr recommendation?

    I want to install a security camera at the front of my house.

    The house & driveway is 6 meters wide and 5 meters deep. If the camera is placed in the center of the house then a 90 degree viewing angle would be sufficient to capture the whole drive + some on either side.

    Id like to be able to view across the road too as the house faces a public road and open area where people hang out and identify faces at a range of about 10 meters from the cameras location, further if possible.

    There is a street light on the left side of the drive way so not sure if this would cause problems or improve night vision.

    I just need a single camera and DVR.

    The DVR will be stored in a hidden location to intruders so there is no need for cloud upload.I just want 24 hour recording which rotates every few weeks.

    Ideally the DVR wont be too large. I dont need room for expansion as i have no intention of adding more than 1 camera.
