Are there any general settings you can recommend for me to get the best picture quality? Including for contrast, smoothness. To capture the best picture at video and at night. The amount of hard drive space you require is dictated by how many cameras, as well as their resolution, frame rate settings, and whether you have H.265 encoding enabled or not to save space (We advise turning it on to double the capacity shown below with ease). I have set wdr at 15 and this seems to get the best quality but appears to distort colours any ideas why? I am a total novice to the cctv world and following a series of break ins on my street I have had to have cctv installed.

What Our Customers

As a rule of thumb, we recommend 2 Terabytes for a 4 x 4/5MP HD camera setup, as this should give you approx 2 weeks using H.265 @ 20fps and that is on continuous, not motion-detected recording. UL (UL 60950-1); CB (IEC 60950-1:2005 + Am 1:2009 + Am 2:2013, IEC 62368-1:2014); CE-LVD (EN 60950-1:2005 + Am 1:2009 + Am 2:2013, IEC 62368-1:2014) Unless selecting a vari-focal camera (with an adjustable lens) It is important to select the correct camera lens option for where the camera is to be positioned. A smaller lens will give you a wider angle but will be "zoomed out more", while a bigger lens will narrow the angle down and "zoom in more".
