If you want to protect your home or business, it is important that this is done in the right image quality. This way you know for sure that good images will be made during a break-in or in another situation. In this way you can review the footage later or possibly report it in the event of theft.
Image quality of surveillance cameras
Surveillance images are increasingly being shown on television and the internet. As you have probably already seen, the quality of these images can vary considerably. Sometimes there are sharp images and in other cases the images are grainy. You can often not recognize people on very low resolution surveillance images! It is therefore important to pay attention to the image quality of a surveillance system.
Influences on quality of surveillance cameras
The following things affect the image quality of surveillance cameras:
- Resolution
The resolution of a security camera is indicated in terms such as VGA (640 x 480), HD Ready (1280 x 720) and Full HD (1920 x 1080). These terms are related to certain resolutions. If the resolution of the surveillance images is higher, the quality will be better. Yet the resolution of surveillance images certainly does not say everything! Some high-resolution surveillance cameras, for example, will not be as good as you might expect due to the software or lens. In addition to the resolution, it is also important to pay attention to the quality of the lens and technology of a surveillance camera.
- Quality lens
In addition to the resolution, quality is one of the most important things when it comes to the image quality of camera images. It is quite difficult to compare this on the basis of the specifications, you should see this with your own eyes.
- Camera technology
Despite the resolution and quality of the lens, it can still be that the image quality is substandard. This has to do with the way the images from a security camera are processed. Consider the processor in a camera and other materials with which a security camera is created. Of course, the recording device or the way in which it is streamed can also be of influence.
- Night vision
Wired or wireless
If you want the best image quality, it is best to opt for a wired system . This works reliably and the chance of a failure is small. By saving in the highest image quality, the best quality is guaranteed. Is it not possible to use a wired system or is the distance to the recording device quite short? Then you can opt for a wireless system . For both a wired and wireless system, you can use security cameras with infrared lighting. You can also film at night this way. Do you want to be able to view your images at any time and anywhere in the world? Then use IP cameras . As you understand all these techniques can be combined, compare different monitoring systems to find the best combination.
