Simple, you pay for what you get. Cheap $50 jobs on Ebay through to the more expensive ones
such as BlackVue for $600 odd.
You require front and rear or just front.
Wifi capability.
I just replaced our front only with a combines rear view.
What suits me may not suit your requirement or budget.
Google is your friend here.
I have Garmin 56 cameras on all sides of the car (a couple on the front with side to the mirror). Got them a few years ago, as low as $199 from the likes of HN etc when on special. They seem to have gone up a bit in price.
I have wired mine in.
You will need a high endurance card & large capacity say 256mb, & good to have a spare, I have had one card fail. They are worked hard with the continual rewriting.
P.S. With Garmin, if you get that, when setting up for the first time, make sure it gets a full bars signal in an area open to the sky, otherwise you have to keep setting it up every time you start it.
The same happened with all my cameras.
Get a 140° camera, not the ultra wide angle, too wide & less detail for number plates.
The camera will suggest to reformat every so often. You just press the button when it asks.

I thought about the mini Garmin, but spent the extra & got the 56. At the time the mini had over heating issues. It also had less resolution. The screen on the 56 is handy at times. Also didn't really cost much more, that's why I ended up using the 56 all around the car.
One of the side cameras caught an interesting scene (single frame), a couple going hammer & tongs in a car park with her disappearing below the widow repeatedly.
I bought, just installed the Blackvue DR 590, fairly simple set up, mount is stick on, ah well. Good pic, but number plates need to be fairly close, right on my budget at $248, as a price match at Super Cheap, then I had a $10 free voucher from them, so not a bad deal.
Software is easy to use as well for any changes wanted.

Mind you Craig1, don't rely on it, because "the instant people rely on technology they are doomed to failure", as someone once said on here recently
