The three most important considerations in selecting a camera are:
- Sensitivity
- Illumination
- Resolution
Proper camera selection for your CCTV system is vital to maximize your system's
effectiveness. You could also, with the range of cameras available, select
"over-qualified" cameras, those with more capabilities than your application
actually requires. Choosing cameras with features that closely match the
needs of a given job helps you save significant costs and can expand or enhance
your entire system. Therefore, when selecting a camera, it is important
to know why, where, and under which conditions your camera will be used.
You can then match specific camera features and capabilities to your applications.
