I have not tried the K1S myself, but it seem to have taken some flack for being less than stellar. And welcome to you too avto036
@Ollivander my camera covering the street is allso in my window, to be honest its not legal to put cameras up like i have, or rather it is but not legal to have them recording.
But since the police here dont bother with my car beeing vandalised 2 times, it must be up to me to be police - judge and jury too
not recomendable but thats what i feel like i am forced to do.
My window camera is just a cheap little box IP camera, and it do get a little obscured from time to time when its raining.
Been meaning to put some rain x or simmilar on that window but not gotten around to do it as that camera is not that important to me, i mostly use it to buzz in the postman when he have a parcel for me
freak him out when i start talking and buzz him in before he get close to the intercom
Your parking spot seem pretty close so if you go for a fixed lens camera i would go for a 4 mm or maybe 6 mm lens, or maybe get one of those cameras that have a little manual zoom lens 2 - 12 mm or there about.
Only problem with the camera inside is any IR lights on the camera might/will reflect off the window glass blinding the camera, but if you have some light on that parking spot at night you might be able to make do with that, my window camera do okay on the 1 street lamp on the front of my building, but then again its a wide angle lens for capturing the big picture and not ppl and faces in partikular.
8 months ago the senile little old lady down on the #1 floor forgot she was cooking, as a result we had the firedepartment come by for a visit.
At the wery end you can see how that camera cope with just the light of 1 street light.
As you can see there is some horsontal noise on that little camera, its just there in low light, so i think i might have been a little too cheap with that one
My NVR is simmilar to this one.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/131629596684 it will swollow up a 4 TB harddrive like the ones for desktop computers, there is a fan in it to cool it and it is noisy, but i have my NVR in the livingroom by the TV so i can live with it, i will not recomend to try and sleep in the same room as the NVR.
Make sure the NVR you get hooked on support 1080/30 fps on all channels, you can do without things like POE ( Power Over Erthernet ) as most cameras come with a PSU and not all cameras support POE.
POE is nice as you only have to route 1 cable to the camera, but in your case thats no problem, i even route network cable + power cable thru my balcony door for the PTZ camera screwed onto the top of the door ( i can do that no problem as i never get out onto that small balcony anyway )
Dore became a little harder to close, but the rubber gasket sealing it still allowed for the 2 cables to go thru it, and i dident have to drill holes in anything.
Dont bother with the slightly cheaper analog CCTV stuff, IP cameras with 1080p is the way to go like 1080p or higher is it for dashcams.
And feel free to ask any CCTV related questions in these forums too, we are a fjew in here thats allso into that stuff to some degree.
