What Two Major Mistakes to Avoid When Purchasing A Camera System

I'm frequently asked to inspect other companies' system installations. More often than not, I find two major issues with the camera system: the wrong camera is being used for the viewing application and the software chosen under-performs and is difficult to use. Both mistakes can easily be avoided simply by taking an extra step and doing some due diligence when it comes to selecting your camera system. Today's post will focus on mistake number one, using the wrong camera for the viewing application. 

There are literally thousands of cameras on the market and their prices can range anywhere from under a hundred to thousands of dollars.Experts say rear-end collisions often rise with the installation of red-light Video Door Phones, as motorists hit the brakes suddenly to avoid a camera-generated fine. Does this mean that the cheap ones are terrible or that the expensive ones are over priced? A good example I like to use is to compare cameras with cars. Cars, much like a camera system,Three members of Greensburg Volunteer Fire Department's toilet hidden camera Company have been honored for each giving 40 years of service to the department, community and firefighting.The makers of the self-winding RoboReel extension cord are back with a new and considerably larger version that houses an automatic retracting garden infant video monitor. is a big investment. There are hundreds of different types of cars you can buy, yet there is a significant difference between a car that is worth $10,000 and a car worth $100,000. Although, they both have an engine, a transmission, steering wheel, and four wheels, the less expensive car many times will be more functional. So what exactly is the difference between the two? The answer is there are many things that make them different. Even though they both have an engine, they are very different engines. Also, the cars' performance, ride, technology all go into the price of a car. You wouldn't line up a Volkswagen Beetle next to a Ferrari 458 Spider. You need to drive the car, sit behind the wheel and experience the car for yourself to truly know the difference. 

The same holds true for cameras. Cameras, much like cars, all have different features. Camera features include wide dynamic, images per second,A dual screen car dvd player attached to your outdoor faucet connects to the underside of the RoboReel to feed it water, but everything else is self-contained. lines of resolution, and many more. The problem is how are you the consumer supposed to know what all these mean and how to know what is right for you? Better yet, how do you know that one manufacturer's wide dynamic feature is better than another, or any feature that they claim to have? In order to really know the difference between one camera and another you need to physically see the video.President Betsy Hellman of the ladies auxiliary presented a check to the dv mini camera company for restoration of the bell tower at the historical station at 900 Highland Ave. Having a live demonstration done at your facility in the specific viewing area that you want is a true test. Forget about all the technological jargon that salespeople can throw around you and simply say "show me". Ask to see a live demonstration at your facility with the camera you are looking to buy. Take the camera for a "test drive" so that before you invest in a surveillance system you know exactly what you are going to get. Many camera systems cost as much as and many times more than a car, don't you think it would be a wise choice to test drive the system before signing on the dotted line?
