I'm looking for a cheap camera I don't know what I'm really actually looking for because I never dealt with cameras before what are my options for door camera at a rented place I'm pretty sure the landlord to let me Mount to camera but I doubt he'll let me run wire for it and since I cannot run wire for it how does a camera be powered for days or weeks or months?

I'll never be able to afford any of those. The $99 one says it has a short battery life. The first one isn't really 200 but 300 on Amazon now.
Thanks Brent.

I don't have any experience with them, but I would probably look on a site like amazon that has a lot of products and usually a lot of reviews. See what users give good marks for battery life and other features for cameras in your budget.
Also, if you have an existing doorbell the install may not be a big deal because you may be able to use the existing wiring. Some will require new mounting holes though. Check out YouTube. You can find plenty of install vids. Example below.

Any chance you're front door has a window? Do you want a camera to see who's at the door in live time or do you want to record in case of a package thief? If there is a window, installing the camera on inside the house may be as easy as simply plugging it in. It may also add security as someone would have to risk b&e to steal/disconnect/vandalize it.
