what's the differences between IP camera and CCTV camera? where they can be used?

CCTV CONs: Resolution stay max cap at 720 x 576 (D1). Anything higher will be a different system like SDI etc. But they are even more expensive than IP cameras. Tons of cable. If you are running a 16ch or 32ch, you are like having 32 cables running back to DVRs. It is also more tedious if you need to add cameras last minutes as you need to run the cables from cameras back to DVR again. I have a Q-See QT518 and have set the Video Output to VGA 1280X1024 without really knowing why. Just because I figured higher is better I guess. Does this mean my DVR is SDI? (not really knowing what that means). Is there a place where I can learn as much as I can without having to read endlessly on forums like this one? Thanks for any guidance. Al. Thanks for your answer. About your question,I'm not a technicist yet, but maybe the reason is that you set the 1280*1024, the model of Q-See QT518 only supports 704×480. Or you can send your seller an email to ask why.

Thanks

could anyone give some suggestions?
