    Looking for home security camera system. Possible smart phone monitoring.
    There are a million manufacturers and options.
    Any advice on the best quality?
    Best outdoor cameras?
    Best image quality?
    Range of wireless cameras?

    Best advice I can offer is to find something stable-- you dont want it constantly needing rebooted or reconnected.

    I just put a new one of these up today. The old one died after 5 years of use and I went with the same thing because I like how simple they are and the new one fit the old mounting hardware.
    Pics/video are stored on an SD card. I only check it if I have a reason.
