Affordable hd cameras for ReadyNas 104 for Surveillance

I have seen several posts and tried to browse the list of supported cameras to get a reasonably cheap one for the ReadyNas 104.

So far it looks like there is no standard and I could not find a single camera that did not have an astronomical price. It is more cost effective to get a separate dedicated system unless:

  1. Could anyone give me a list of the supported cameras they are using with a reasonable price?
  2. Are there any alternatives to Surveillance as a software?

      Hi Jenn

      as per initial post I had checked the compatibility list. This list is old (Feb14) but also is not practical. Some models cannot be found in the market and most are overpriced. It is very difficult at the moment to find a compatible camera with reasonable price. My question is for whoever has actual experience and specific model with price in mind.
