Does anyone here have any experience or recommendations for outdoor CCD
security cameras?

I've been looking at the Guardian camera from Henry's
http://www.henrys.co.uk/cctv/guardian.htm
and bullet cameras from RF
Concepts http://www.rfconcepts.co.uk/cam-bullet-bw.htm
but none of the
sites actually give you any example images, so it's hard to tell if it's
worth putting up a PIR triggered light and going for colour or sticking
with a low-light b&w ccd.  The area I need to cover is about 12m with
about a 90degree fov.

I'm wondering how much are cameras going to be affected by the weather
too, if the lens will get condensation etc.

The plan is to hook up a couple of these to my HA server and then be able
to get images sent to my t68i (via email via GPRS) when away.

Cheers, Mark
