Unlike traditional surveillance systems, modern security cameras come with a wide range of options like wireless cameras, DIY installation, self-monitoring, expert installation, and more.
For indoor security camera, there are certain points to be considered:
- Do you want to keep an eye on kids, staff or visitor?
- Do you want to monitor the property or valuables?
- Do you want to place the camera in one place or want to keep it moving?
- Do you want to look at specific activities?
Do you want to connect the camera with other devices, like TV, Computer, Projector etc?
On the other hand, outdoor security cameras are a must for security, to keep an eye on the people entering your home and tracking activities in your absence. Surveillance systems outside your home should be chosen with respect to:
- How large an area do you want to cover?
- How much detailing and image clarity do you require?
- Will you need single or multiple security cameras?
- What is the exterior condition?
Though there are many factors, these are some of the key points to keep in mind while choosing an indoor or outdoor security system for your home.
2. Wireless Security Camera
When it comes to getting a surveillance system installed on your home, the first thing that strikes is how the long unattractive wires will be managed. But that doesn’t have to be a concern anymore, because, with the advancements in technology, wireless security cameras have become popular nowadays.
Wireless security cameras, also known as WiFi cameras, work through wireless sensors and can easily be connected to mobile phones.
Unlike wired systems that are to be fixed in a particular place, these cameras can be easily placed anywhere and can be moved from one place to the other.
Before buying a wireless camera, make sure it is compatible or within reach with the wifi connection on your home.
3. Budget
Of course, safety is a top priority. Before stepping out and exploring the options to choose the right security camera for your home, don’t forget to have a look at your budget. The most important point here is to have a flexible budget and not a fixed one.
Many times, people end up buying a cheap system, which turns out to be really expensive later on because of poor quality and other issues. Do not set a fixed amount of money to be spent and always choose a quality security camera for your place, even if you need to spend a little more.
4. Lighting
Lighting plays a vital role while choosing a security camera for your home. For instance, if you’re looking for an indoor camera and it has to be placed in a room that does not have sufficient light all the time, you need to look for a system according to that particular requirement. Whereas, in a room that is full of light, any camera can be suitable there.
There are a variety of options available that will make sure to capture the best image in a range of lighting conditions. Many security cameras come with light filtering features like artificial illuminators and IR filters that can adjust the amount of light reaching the sensor.
5. Professional Installation or DIY Installation
Many security camera companies nowadays offer professional installation, while some companies don’t. When you choose a wired surveillance camera for your premises, an installation by experts becomes essential because the wires need to be installed properly in the walls and drilling may need to be done, especially the system should be configured properly.
Whereas, DIY (do it yourself) camera system installation, can be done yourself without taking the help of professionals. Mostly, helpful information or how-to videos are available that enable you to easily install the camera. This can be a little difficult for the wired camera, but wireless cameras can be set up in DIY ways as they are plug and play kind.
