How Do You Buy A CCTV Security Camera?
There are two types of CCTV cameras. You can choose from CMOS or CCD which are differentiated by the image sensor. Cameras that are CMOS based are cheaper of the two but do not produce the same quality of image in terms of sharpness and clarity as the CCD camera delivers. Depending on your needs you can find the camera that is right for you. If you need to identify faces, you’ll need a vastly different security camera from a need to simply monitor crowd traffic patterns. If the area you want to monitor is outdoors, there are requirements such as durability concerns that need to be address unlike an indoor security camera. Your budget and size of your security system, the number of cameras you require, will also affect your final decision. One of most important consideration is lighting of the area you want to monitor. If you plan on installing an outdoor security camera to protect your detached car garage from thieves but buy a high quality day camera that isn’t designed for low light
