Residential or Commercial Security Camera Solutions
Are you looking for residential or commercial surveillance systems? Seems like a basic question to ask, but most residential camera systems involve outdoor cameras, whereas commercial systems use both indoor and outdoor cameras. Even if your residence does require an indoor security camera solution, lighting is typically quite different from that of a business.
Area That Needs To Be Monitored
The quality of the video, light sensitivity and lens type are determined based on the area that you want to monitor. Is the area indoors, outdoors, daytime, night, some or all of the above? Camera placement (ceiling, wall, roof, pole) and lens type (wide angle? telephoto?) are determined based on how far away the area is from the camera. The camera angle and the type of camera are determined based on how narrow or wide the area to be covered is. If the area needs normal coverage, a fixed focus camera will work well. If the area requires a wider coverage, then a pan-tilt-zoom camera will be a good choice. Understanding the lighting conditions of the area(s) you want to cover will determine whether you need cameras that automatically adjust for lighting, or cameras that produce color images during the day, and black and white images at night.
