Security cameras with motion sensors automatically begin filming when they sense movement and stop when that motion ceases. This feature can save time when reviewing recorded footage; you won't have to sift through hours of empty footage. Here's pick a home security camera with a motion sensor.
Instructions
1. Consider whether you want a camera that is wireless or wired. Wireless security cameras are easier to install but provide only video, while wired cameras capture audio as well.
2. If you wish to monitor open spaces, you should consider the distance within which the sensor will detect superfluous movement, such as from nearby tees or shrubs.
3. Determine what type of receiver you will use to view the camera's images. You can choose to send information to a TV, computer, monitor or a VCR. However, before purchasing a camera, check its options. Some security systems come with a kit that includes a receiver, while others operate like a remote and transmit images to your television.
4. Set a budget. Prices range from under $100 to thousands.
5. Check whether the camera's warranty offers a maintenance plan.
