What DVR do you suggest is best to use with this camera?

I have used this camera with two different Qsee DVR's, both were QT series. I was looking at some newer models and noticed that several didn't have the RS485 port that is used to control the camera through the DVR's interface but this camera came with a separate controller with remote. As long as the DVR supports analog video, you should be ok. Hope the helps.

My suggestion is to never buy Qsee they suck and once you have a problem you are on your own because they're customer servive is impossable!!!!

I use the QT5682, but any dvr that is analog will work. It comes with a ptz remote receiver but if your dvr has it built in you will not need it.

At least a LCD monitor with VGA. One with HDMI (high definition) is best. Check your outputs on your DVR. You may have 3 choices. VGA, HDMI, and video (BNC connection).

This camera has two outputs a composite one that will work with your current DVR and an SDI one that will require a new DVR, or an SDI to HDMI converter to view in HD

Well if you want to keep an archive of things that the camera sees you will need a DVR. The monitor or TV yes you do if you want to see what the camera saw. What do you think?

You will need a analog dvr and a sd car.Our supplier recommends the Pocketlitedvr2. We don't have this dvr listed, but we can obtain it for you, the price is $299.Regards,CoviSec 1.800.215.2294

No you will need a DVR to record. Any standard DVR with BNC input would work.

I would stick with the Dahua ones only issue/requirement is hard drive needs to be WD AV-GP. I tried several other China NVR and it had issues with motion or iphone app didn't work.

Hey I've purchased this camera before you need to have a DVR receiver in order to use this camera. You should check the QSee official website for more details. They have pretty good customer service

There is no built in camera, and android is not the best at adding new hardware.I would recommend getting a Raspberry Pi if you want a cheap thing to use as a camera DVR. You can get one for less $40, and add a cheap USB camera to it. It will work great, and then you can also use it for any other server stuff you need/want.

Depends on included software. However, one of the best DVRs there is, is Windows Media Center which is included in most versions of Windows. The one included in Win7 and Win8 is best version.

You will need a DVR with multiple inputs. Perhap a NightOwl 4 or 8 channel, but that is just my recommendation.

Marta: No, you wouldn't NEED a DVR to operate the system. The software allows for monitoring and/or recording via your laptop - if you want to review footage you merely play the files back on your computer. Tom

Run the software that come with it.. It has a basic Dvr... The quality isn't the best but it is a great cam for the price Tpg

You can add an external hard drive if you have a compatible receiver which will give you DVR capabilities. I don't think you can use a DVR.

You'll need a DVR recorder and a camera wire to make this camera work.

You can hook these cams up to a DVR for your recording and playback needs, the brand is really your preference, but to name a few there is qsee, zmodo, defender, swann, Samsung, and more.
