This week on the Business Security Cameras of Orange County blog, we’re continuing our series on what to look for in business security cameras. Today’s post is all about the video itself. What’s the right level of video quality for your business? And what’s with the wide range of quality available?
Understanding Video Quality
We’ve all seen the kind of terrible, grainy security camera footage that makes the evening news on a regular basis. Why does it look the way that it does? It’s a combination of the quality of the camera itself and the quality or resolution of the video footage that was taken.
Some cameras, in an effort to save storage space, film at an exceptionally low frame rate, too. That’s what’s going on in footage that’s jumpy rather than smooth. It watches more like a series of photographs than a movie.
Today’s modern business security cameras are available in a wide range of resolutions and can record footage with smooth framerates. You can even get systems that film in 4K resolution if that’s what you deem best for your business.
If you’ve shopped for televisions lately, you know that the price of newer technologies like 4K has dropped significantly. We have seen similar effects in our industry, and you might be surprised at the quality your money can get you these days.
Choosing the Right Balance of Quality and Price
Choosing the right balance of quality and price is highly dependent on the nature of your business security camera needs and your business goals. In other words, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to which level of quality to choose. Our experienced sales team can help you navigate this decision making process with ease.
