Hey all, I'm looking for a doorbell camera with continuous recording. Would prefer it not need a subscription but I guess that depends on what's available. Any suggestions?

If I wanted to do that, I would not try to let the camera take care of the storage space. It is simply not it's job.

I would use some recording software for managing all these recordings, and I would give it some disk space on my NAS.

I've got network attached storage and an always online server I can use to house the recordings. I really just need a camera capable of continuous recording with supporting software.
