I've used MP cameras from Arecont, AXIS, Sony, IQinvison and Honeywell. All of those manufacturers have good product lines with a good range of cameras. MP cameras are only good if you are using a head-end that's compatible (ie. an NVR or Hybrid DVR).

For analog cameras, the most important specs are the sensor and how many lines of resolution there are. Be careful with the "cheaper" Day/Night IR cameras though. Most often these are not "true day night" meaning that you may experience images that are off-color.

It all comes down to what you require. I've captured a shooting in the middle of the night with a $29 camera and that evidence held up in court.
