With the development of society and the improvement of economy, safety issues are attracting more and more attention. On the knowledge sharing platform, we often receive questions such as "how to choose a security camera". Until now, there has been no sufficient and systematic answer to this question, but this time we will summarize it and provide information that can be useful to everyone.
Below is a summary of the options for installing security cameras at home, entrances, small courtyards, small stores, etc. from the perspective of individual users. First, it is important to clarify the purpose of installing security cameras. Make it clear whether you are installing them to later check the recorded footage, identify the cause of an accident or the circumstances before and after the accident, obtain evidence, and deal with the accident.
With that in mind, here are some factors to consider when choosing a security camera:
1. Lens focal length Camera lenses are generally of two types: fixed focus and zoom. Choose a lens with the appropriate focal length according to the range and size of the scene you want to monitor. Common fixed focus lenses include 2.8mm, 3.6mm, 4mm, 6mm, 8mm, 12mm, 16mm, and 25mm. Zoom lenses come in two types: manual and motorized, and you can choose according to your needs. In addition, panoramic cameras use 180-degree and 360-degree panoramic lenses that can cover a wide range, allowing you to monitor small offices, living rooms, and other places without blind spots. WEILAILIFEI's wireless and POE-powered security cameras can also be used for remote monitoring via smartphone connection, and recording data can be downloaded and backed up through the network.
2. Choose the appearance of the camera The appearance of the camera depends on the installation location. If you install the camera on the wall, you usually choose a rifle-type camera. If you install it on the ceiling, you usually choose a half-dome type camera. For use in outdoor environments, waterproof and dustproof functions are required. Pay attention to the IP defense rating of the camera, and generally IP65 cameras can meet outdoor waterproof and dustproof requirements. WEILAILIFEI's wireless and POE powered security cameras have IP67 waterproof and dustproof specifications, which are strong waterproof levels and have no harmful effects even in bad weather such as rain and wind. They can also be installed outdoors.
With the right mounting bracket, you can mount a rifle camera on the ceiling or a half dome camera on the wall. For large outdoor surveillance environments, you can choose a camera with pan-tilt function, which allows 360-degree rotation. Similarly, indoors, you can place a small pan-tilt camera on a corner table and remotely control it using your smartphone to check the situation in the entire room. WEILAILIFEI's wireless and POE-powered security camera comes with a monitor, so you can keep an eye on your pets and babies anytime, anywhere, whether outdoors or indoors. It can be mounted on the ceiling, so you can see every corner of the room without any blind spots. In addition, when it detects motion, it automatically tracks the object continuously and sends an alert to the app in real time.
3. Choose the camera's functions Choose a camera with various functions according to your surveillance needs. You can choose a camera with a variety of different transmission methods, such as video cable, Ethernet cable, Wi-Fi, wireless AP, and 4G mobile network. If you need audio function, choose a camera with audio function. WEILAILIFEI's wireless and POE power supply security camera's audio recording has a built-in high-sensitivity microphone, which records 360° around the surveillance camera, accurately recognizes the sound on the scene, and achieves the beauty of the recording sound quality. Since it can record and play back audio, important audio data can also be left as evidence. When used in different light environments, indoor cameras may have light from outside, so choose a camera that supports wide dynamic function. If you need to clearly see the license plate of a car at night, or if the car's headlights are very bright, you need a camera that suppresses strong light. WEILAILIFEI's wireless and POE powered security camera has day and night mode switching, low light mode, and when shooting at night under the same conditions, it is equipped with a special large low light infrared LED, so you can feel as if you were shooting during the day and record with more brightness. If power supply is inconvenient, you can just choose a camera that supports Power over Ethernet (POE) supply on the network camera and set a POE switch on the back end. Starlight grade cameras are used to maintain color monitoring screens in low light environments, and can maintain color monitoring screens in weak light conditions. At night when there is no light at all, it supplies white light to the camera, so that color monitoring screens can be maintained at night. WEILAILIFEI's wireless and POE powered 5 million high quality security camera also has improved heat dissipation and durability, and has a service life four times longer.
With wise choices, individual users can meet different surveillance needs, such as home, entrance, courtyard, retail store, etc. WEILAILIFEI is dedicated to providing high-quality surveillance solutions to meet different needs.
