Too many camera choices

[tiripon]

Hi, I am reading a lot of articles like the "Hardware Compatibility List".
I am trying to find good quality camera reviews but I am just overwhelmed.

Is there someone who could help me choose? I would like to find the best quality keeping it fully compatible with ZoneMinder.

I am searching for an Outdoor, bullet camera, 3MP or better, color, Night-vision, IP, POE, 1 GBps.

Sorry for not taking more time to search around but there are so many models and I have the impression I'm always stumbling on deals cameras. I don't mind deals but what is important for me is best quality.

Thanks.

FI9805E works very well and you do not need a 3 MP camera running 40 FPS. These guys at 5 FPS will capture all the events you need!

I've found Hikvision and Dahua cameras pretty good, for mid-range cameras - most, if not all, in their ranges should work well with Zoneminder. To echo the above, the one Foscam I have is good too (http://www.foscam.com/FI9805W.html) although that doesn't apply across their range, from what I can gather.

In terms of what you're asking for, I have two of these (a 4mm and a 6mm lens) working really well with Zoneminder and they seem to tick most of your boxes: http://www.hikvision.com/en/Products_ac ... i5608.html . Available for ~£100 (if you're in the UK). I effectively run them at 10fps/2Mbps/720p.

Their setup possibly isn't listed on the Wiki, but the standard Hikvision settings are fine.
