I'm looking for an Outdoor IP Camera that looks like a camera and will scare little scallys away from breaking into my van / scooby when parked outside my new apartment.
It's just a procedure and something else i can use my silly expensive server for 
Anyone purchased something like this recently or have any experience?

In all fairness, a camera will do shit all, and if anything, promote them to just cause more shit...
Tried myself while I was living in the 'pool, the just wore there hoods up, dark clothing, made no difference at all.

I really want a few outdoor security cameras but I'm clueless with all that. If you find anything let me know.

They wont stop people nicking your stuff but they can be a deterrant and its also good for your own peace of mind.

I disagree, may wear hoodies etc but still offers some security and may put some people off. At our warehouse we have about 18 cameras and helped deter the mindless vandals

A lot of the time you footage cant be used in a court of law, as it is illegally filming those accused (more uk bullshit). Unless you display a CCTV in operation notice.
Read that on here i think.

what sorta price you looking at, for around 100 you could get an average IP cam but nothing great tbh, probably looking upwards of 150 for anything pretty good.

With IP cameras its all down to "you get what you pay for"
I work in survellance and our IP cameras start at around £800 for a decent megapixel camera, i know this is probally way out of your price range.
But I would look at Axis for upto £200 probally best off getting a 2nd hand one.
http://www.networkwebcams.co.uk/
are probally one of the cheapest suppliers out there have a butchers on there site see what you can find.
