Peering down from security cameras as we stamp the city streets, buy bread at the corner market, fill the car with petrol, or catch a taxi or tram. 
What is the best affordable outdoor security camera?
Get a CCTV camera with infrared night vision and CCD sensor - do not get a camera with a CMOS sensor, they are no good in the dark.
Get a camera with a high resolution (480) and and digital DVR than can record that resolution

Do NOT go for best. These normally rely on automatic lenses, which can be difficult to adjust even for professionals. Depends on the country, but very good deals can be made at Henry's Radio, London. Internet search for them as henrys radio. If your problem is daytime a reasonable quality colour camera will do, but give an idea to the supplier of the distance from the camera to the place you monitor or you will not get the right lens. Get a camera with its' own automatic iris. For night use a low light mono camera is better, but you might need to use infrared lighting, or else a motion detected light to see well. There are colour cameras which will switch to mono at night, but they do not handle very low light conditions.
