The Eufy Security EufyCam S4 four-camera kit is down to $999.99 from $1,399.99 on Amazon; price trackers show that this is its lowest price so far. Each camera gives you a wide 4K view for keeping an eye on the whole scene, while a separate 2K pan-and-tilt lens can follow someone moving through it and zoom in when you need a closer look. That could mean watching the entire driveway while still following someone walking toward the garage, or keeping a broad view of the backyard without losing detail when something moves near the fence.

Also, since each camera comes with its own 5.5W solar panel—and Eufy says about one hour of direct sunlight per day is enough to keep the battery topped up, under typical conditions—you can mount a camera on a detached garage, shed, fence line, or far side of the house without planning the installation around a nearby outlet. The system is also wire-free, so moving a camera later is much easier than relocating a hardwired setup. You also get color night vision, which should make it easier to see what is happening around the property after dark, while radar and passive infrared sensors help make those recordings more useful by narrowing down motion alerts.

That coverage is also easier to manage because you're not relying on a cloud subscription to keep your footage. The included HomeBase S380 stores recordings locally on 16GB of built-in storage and can be expanded with a 2.5-inch drive for up to 16TB more, so you can keep a much larger archive without adding a monthly fee. It also handles facial recognition and cross-camera tracking locally, which means someone moving from the driveway toward the backyard can be followed across multiple cameras as one continuous event (as opposed to a series of unrelated clips). The main tradeoff is the high upfront cost, and a four-camera system is excessive for a small apartment or single-entry setup. For a smaller setup, Amazon also has a two-camera bundle on sale right now.
