Recommendation for an outside IP cctv camera for garden wildlife?

[mjsp8]

Hi:
total newbie to the forum so bear with.

Want a ip cctv camera for outside to observe wildlife which comes into garden at night,cats ans owls at the moment.

dont want to spend a lot as a casual(nosey)observer.

£50-£100 .I want one that can use recording software to my pc running win10.
I got one off ebay that was using v380 software and that was great but unfornutely as that went south because it was really an indoor camera.

Can connect directly to router via ethernet cable or use wifi.Just dont want to use cloud or suchlike.Have a spare hard drive which I can use for storage.

Any help pointing me in right direction would be apperciated.

Stay Safe

Hi @mjsp8

Our recommendation would be the DS-2CD2345FWD-I 4MP Turret camera which is slightly over your budget but an outdoor camera under £100 is likely going to be poor quality and you risk it failing and having to shell out more money for a replacement a couple of years down the line.

You can record to a PC using Hikvision iVMS-4200 software and the camera also supports fitting a MicroSD card for local storage.
