We are using the d-link ip cameras. They are around £60 each we use our iPhones/pads with the mydlink app.they work fine day or night. We find the microphone to check any noise from the dogs really useful. The only downside we found was having to use a PC to set them up as we didn't have one ( used a laptop from work in the end). They were an easy to setup cheap option that we bought when expecting a litter that we still use.

That Swann with the DVR4-1260 4 CH DVR with the PRO-510 Cameras is a very low resolution obsolete system that's no longer on there website (take a look at one working before you decide), the Swann D1 Pro series with the 530 600 tv line cameras are a lot better picture quality for very little more money.

Or try this site they do good systems http://abacuscaralarms.co.uk/alarmshop/ ... ductId=356

In this thread I was recommending Swann CCTV but I have now changed my mind, my latest recommendation is don’t touch Swann with a barge pole, they will only honour the warranty if it’s bought from a valid Swann reseller and the vast majority sold are not. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

We got a Motorola scout. Basic version about 50. One with pitch/pan 80 quid. Triggered through sound or motion. Live stream via a mobile app. Very easy to set up. When it is triggered it will store a few mins of film. You can subscribe and get longer storage. For keeping an eye on the hound it is perfect. It is also sold as a baby monitor.
