Hi guys,

but seemed to score badly for motion detection with a lot of people saying trees/leaves blowing in the wind and rain would set them off.

I really would like the camera to start recording when people approaching. I've heard Hikvision Acusense being recommended for motion detection but they seem really expensive. I was hoping to get a 4 camera cctv kit for about 500.

Are there any other cameras out there that people would recommend and where to get them?

Thanks,
Sean
