Soundy 1 Posted June 22, 2009 How do you define "top"? Top sales? Top quality? Top features? Top marketing BS? Generally the cheaper you go, the more sales you'll see... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

voltman64 0 Posted October 23, 2009 I disagree, only 2, Sony and Panasonic use the best chip sets,Sony will sell lower grade chips to all other manufactures and keep the good ones. Panasonic holds a patten on chip bonding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Panasonic holds a patten on chip bonding. ^^^I've heard this as well from a number of manufactures. The simple truth of it all comes in a few statements, feel free to add to these guys. lol 1.) What the 'top of the line' this week may not be next week. 2.) What was great service today, has been bought out buy a larger, less service oriented company and will change tomorrow. 3.) Video can be subjective. You may like more red or green than the next guy. Which looks better to YOU? 4.) Cost vs. value. There's always something better for more money. This thread has potential!!

Panasonic holds a patten on chip bonding. Chipsets, maybe; cameras, definitely not (at least where Sony is concerned ). Panasonic? Well yes, they are one of the best. Ikegami, Pelco, Bosch and Ganz also make excellent cameras. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi, as a manufacturer would like to say it depends on chip(DSP) maker. for instance the DSPs (W3~W5) from Samsung Techwin are same for Samsung Techwin use and local use. It seems Sony dose same thing. When manufacturers say it has 'A' brand DSP, it needs a doublecheck carefully with 'A' brand DSP brochure which can get on website.

While chipset will have an effect on the potential quality of a given camera design, there are far more factors that can adversely affect the end product: power supply design, ancillary circuit design, parts selection, production methods, quality control and a whole slew of other factors come into play. You could have two cameras that employ exactly the same chipset and one could be far superior to the other due to the other's cheap circuitry, shoddy production line and/or poor QC. That is often the primary difference between high-quality goods and cheapo stuff! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeromephone 6 Posted October 7, 2012 Are we talking about the ACME company that supplies Wiley Coyote ? There products have not worked out well for him> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Numb-nuts 1 Posted October 7, 2012 What is top to you may not be top to me.The answer is a subjective one and there is no one DVR or CCTV kit that will suite every application better than all others. Depends on operational requirements aswerll as budget and several other unquantifiable factors Don't waste your time trying to find the top DVR you will find a different one every time. OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENT ? ? ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
