Sounds like a good idea but there sure are a lot on them out there....
I have a few cameras.
My favorite for the lower level back patio is a Speco CVC-7700DN which has IR leds for night time. The camera gives a great picture in all lighting conditions. Highly recommended.
I have a Pelco Spectra II PTZ for the front of the house, but it can also look over the roofline to the east side. Excellent daytime images, not real great at night - but there is little light available. I'm planning to install an IR source, which I hope will improve it.

This is not a topic or discussion new to CocoonTech. Problem is that we found that camera ratings are very subjective. What is good to one person is not adequate for another.
We also tried posting screen shots, but again conditions they were taken in (especially lighting for night time) would vary.
I even proposed a “show your camera†night for one of our chat sessions where people could post their camera specs and make them available for live viewing (I was the only one who participated).
Plus other factors like price (what you pay for what you get) along with other subjective factors make this a very difficult subject to rate/post.

Here is one of the more complete threads with screen captures and all. Perhaps it should be a sticky somewhere. http://www.cocoontech.com/index.php?showtopic=1883&
