you're going to have to have a subscription for the recordings and playback, as noted in other posts that said USB or micro card - these technologies have faults especially in the outdoor elements. You can do solar, but when you have to replace those batteries you'll start running into issues with matching and quality.
being in security, I would use "shielded" electric connect - meaning hard wire or plug in where it can't be touched or altered typically done in conduit into the roofline. Second I would use Wireless and a subscription to avoid issues with hard technologies, I would also do it because of the fact you could end up with nothing. Since my job is to think like the attacker I would go after a usb stick or micro SD and remove them. now you have no evidence. I can easily do anything I want then.
The real answer is there is no band aid, no simple out, no easy. Security costs and needs to be planned and thought out then implemented with care and strategy. otherwise you just wasted your money for no results that benefit you.
