I appreciate the response.

I just stumbled across this subreddit yesterday. I see now that you guys are into some professional level equipment. And I'm confident your advice is sound.

I just dont have enough experience in this subject matter to feel comfortable jumping into the higher end right off the bat.

My son has convinced me to go Poe over wireless. He volunteers to run the cables through the attic and feed them down the walls.

So ..... right now I'm leaning towards just Getting One Of These Cheap Camaras and learning how to make it work.

At least if it turns out to be a bad experience I might at least learn the right questions to ask next time.
