The Rise of 4K Security Cameras
David BrownFebruary 12, 20265 min read
4K (8 MP) cameras capture finer detail for facial recognition and licence-plate capture at wider angles than 1080p.
Higher resolution increases storage and bandwidth requirements—plan NVR capacity and use H.265+ compression where supported.
For large sites, mix 4K cameras at critical points with 1080p coverage elsewhere to balance cost and performance.
