What to look for in a night time security camera:
One of the things you need to consider when choosing your security camera is making sure it is high resolution, at least 1080p or above. Another important quality for a night time security camera is long range night vision that reaches at least 10m away. It should also be weatherproof, as this is essential for an outdoor camera. A simple way to determine if it will be protected is to check it has a rating of IP65 or more.
Something you need to decide when choosing between cameras is if you need a black and white or colour camera. Usually a black and white camera will be able to take a more detailed video in lower light, so colour cameras are normally the choice for lighter areas. However, colour cameras are especially useful for identifying a subject’s hair, clothes or car if you want to catch a thief.CCTV
