With the ever-increasing crime rate, installing CCTV cameras in and around our houses has become mandatory. A lot of thought goes into our minds while looking for the right CCTV camera<\/a> for our houses. This article will help you answer all the doubts and questions popping into your mind catering to CCTV cameras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Different types of CCTV Cameras<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dome Camera<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

They are generally used in indoor areas. The camera, as a unit, is easily visible to the naked eye. Yet, it is hard to guess the direction in which the cameras are facing. Retail places like shops and corporate offices widely use them by installing them on the ceiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bullet Camera<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Bullet CCTV cameras are weatherproof and hence, used in outdoor spaces. They have a cylinder-like casing protecting them from the outside. They are used in spaces where a long range of view is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

C-Mount CCTV Camera<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A typical CCTV camera can record up to a distance of 35 feet. But attaching a particular lens to the C-Mount camera can help you record beyond this limit. This type of camera is considered to be varifocal, which means you can zoom in and zoom out without losing focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Day\/Night Surveillance Camera<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These CCTV cameras are generally used outdoors and in extreme conditions. They can easily function under direct sunlight without showing a glare. They also record high-quality data even when in poorly lit areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pan Tilt Zoom (PTZ) CCTV Camera<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As the name suggests, it is possible to pan, tilt and zoom these cameras manually. They can also be programmed to pan and tilt at regular intervals. Since they can be monitored using live controls, they are installed in highly sensitive zones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

High-Definition CCTV Camera<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These types of cameras can produce high-quality images even after zooming in. They can also record at high frame rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Infrared\/Night Vision CCTV Camera<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This technology can capture images in absolute darkness as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Network\/IP CCTV Camera<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These CCTV cameras work on the internet and are hence said to be wireless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Features You Should Look Out for When Buying a CCTV Camera in India<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Connectivity<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Always check if the Wifi frequency of the router at your home is the same as the CCTV you are buying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Power<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If your camera is wireless then you should check its battery life beforehand. For wired CCTV cameras, one should determine the duration of its backup power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Durability<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You must choose your CCTV camera while keeping in mind the area you are going to install it. There are different rated cameras for extreme weather conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Video quality<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You should always buy a CCTV camera that records at least 1080p HD resolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HDR<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

HDR which stands for High Dynamic Range is something that helps the CCTV camera rule out glares and shadows from outdoor footage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zoom<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is one of the most needed features of CCTV cameras. An optical zoom can help you zoom in without losing the quality of the image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Field of view<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This determines how wide the CCTV camera can see. An optimal field of view should be at least 120 to 180 degrees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Night vision<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Two types of night vision CCTV cameras can record footage at night. The first one is the infrared LED sensor which records the night footage in black and white. The second one is the bright light which produces colour footage with the help of a spotlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Audio<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

CCTV cameras can also capture audio from the footage if this feature is available. There is a new trend of two-way audio where the person seen in the camera can speak with the person looking at the footage through his\/her device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Storage and recording<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Most CCTV cameras store the recorded data in the SD card installed in the camera itself. Otherwise, it is directly uploaded to your cloud if it is supported by Wi-Fi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notifications<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Most CCTV cameras nowadays can detect a person or movement around the camera and immediately notify the owner about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

App<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Almost all security cameras have a user-friendly app which lets you control the settings and toggle its field of view. They also help you look at the live feed conveniently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
