Home security cameras have been around for a while, but very expensive. Technology has grown in leaps and bounds and with these advances the pricing has come way down. Whether you want a 4 or 8 cameras DVR ( Digital Video Recorder ) or something more or a bit simpler, the options nowadays are endless.

Everyone when they think about it has their reasons for wanting security cameras or CCTV as some call it. Perhaps you want to see who is picking up your newspaper on Fridays, so you get a security camera pointed out to the end of the driveway. Others like to cover the 4 corners of their home, capturing video of someone who would dare to break in your domicile. Then there are those who like to see who’s at the door, and have a video record of it.
