I use a PTZ camera on my car in the yard where i park my car, i do that cuz its not allways i can park in the same spot, and i am zoomed in pretty close to make sure i get a good headshot of a vandal ( since i moved here i had 3 counts of vandalisem against my car ) in the other town where i use to live ( 2 largest in DK ) i never had any vandalisem on a car of mine.
And i am forced to act myself as police here have no time for such minor things, so if anything happen i have to do a Judge Dredd on the poor SOB
With the PTZ camera i can just allign my car in the footage when i get up into my apartment, and my camera is mounted to my balcony door with 2 self tapping screws.
The 2 wires for the camera ( network and 12 V power ) just go thru the door and its rubber seal, not ideal but i never open that door, so i think it will be allright, worked for over a year now.
Are those foscam cameras okay with use outside ?
If bonny have a front yard of sorts then he might be able to plant a wildlife camera out there, but you will still need to park more or less in the same spot then.
A little demo of my IP camera doing a programmed partol of the area behind my apartment, and this is in pitch black conditions.
