CCTV cameras

["Periproct" <Periproct@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hope this is vaguely the right place to ask........

Does anybody know where I can get decent CCTV cameras in the UK at a
reasonable price.
Buying one and seeing if it works OK in low light levels is an expensive
trail and error method.

I have a supposedly low lux radio camera from Ebay watching the rear of
house from the garage which is next to useless in low light levels
(completely black picture from around 16:00 to 10:00 this time of year).
A second more expensive camera from Maplin watching the carport is OK for a
longer period of the day but still not a lot of use at night. Both cameras
have IR leds.

IR illuminators seem very expensive and I'd like to avoid having the house
bristling with large security devices or the neighbours are going to think
I'm some kind of weirdo.
