Security Cameras - What Are the Options?

There are a number of security camera systems on the market. Which one is the right one? Where should I begin looking?
In a March 2022, there was a PVE Neighborhood Watch meeting in Lunada Bay. These neighbors were able to discuss options and share information. The presentation is for your reference to use as a tool to help you decide which system or combination of systems is right for you.
If you are interested in having a Block Meeting and discussing this topic, please contact your Area Coordinator to schedule a meeting. The session can be via Zoom or in person. Your Area Coordinator can help with the details and coordinate with the PVE PD to see if an officer can be in attendance.
