How high a frame rate would a high security camera typically require?
A. Motion pictures use a frame rate of 24 frames per second. Video surveillance generally does not need full motion video. In some instances 1 to 5 frames per second is sufficient, but in most cases 12 to 15 frames per second is adequate. It depends on the business requirement how fluid the motion must appear. A higher frame rate means more bandwidth and storage for the archive.
