Choosing the Right CCTV Camera for Your Requirements
A great amount of innovation in recent years has propelled the CCTV camera industry forward into the future. Today, you have many more options available to you, when it comes to choosing a camera system for your premises. It can end up being a tricky decision, but with the right advice and with some basic knowledge, you can make a confident decision and rest assured that you have made the best investment for your property.
Closed Circuit Television Cameras are a great weapon in the fight against crime and crime prevention. These camera systems are often used to monitor offices, schools, shopping malls, banks and even domestic homes. It has been proven that CCTV camera systems effectively help to deter vandalism and theft, and also provide 24-hour surveillance of properties and facilities.
Tips to Choosing CCTV Cameras
Here are a few tips to keep in mind, when searching for your CCTV camera system:
- Consider the area to be monitored: Decide what you want to monitor – do you want to see faces of people, customers or employees? Or do you want to monitor stock and goods, or large crowds of people? This will already impact the type of system that you will ultimately decide on.
- Consider your budget: Aside from buying the actual CCTV camera system, it will also need to be installed. Consider your budget and stay within it, while shopping around.
- Different types of cameras: There are basically two types of CCTV cameras – the ones that use CMOS, which is the image censor camera, and the ones that use CCD, which produce a clearer and far sharper image but are more expensive.
- Choose the correct monitor: Make sure to choose a monitor that is compatible with your CCTV camera system.
