Toaster 0 Posted May 3, 2011 I know most of you here are installers or industry professionals, but what I'd like to see are some video samples of analog camera setups. More than the few offered by our fearless leader Rory. " title="Applause" /> I'm simply a end user, and want to compare what I'm seeing on my inexpensive systems with the systems you guys are working with that most likely I can not afford Does anyone have a web site setup with analog and or ip camera samples? surely that's something you guys would have interest in as well?

SEANHAWG 1 Posted May 13, 2011 Here is some we did for a lens comparison.

tesc_cctvpro 0 Posted June 12, 2011 This is the cheapest setup i could think of ----- Camera no1 is a $25 camera, 4,5 are 1/4" Sharp cameras ---- nothing on here is more than 420TVL and the DVR cost $400 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I meant the cheapest setup in our array --- of course I could have got a $40 dvr and put these cameras on there. But i thought the question was asking for comparative images in the price range. I wasn't using my cost price - i was using our resale price - and specifically wasn't aiming to demonstrate high quality, or $40 dvr's --- This 16 channel isn't the brand we normally represent and neither is it the cameras we normally use --- I thought the poster wanted to get a realistic comparison of low end devices ----- Just to add - not one of the cameras on my sheet have more than 12 Leds. I think this is a realistic comparison for low end ----cams where snapped over the network, not live view. --- if going into further detail, the dvr has searchable onboard pos, gps, smart searching and a number of features not available on the Dahua DVR --- but then this is just a cheapie which we keep around basically for some low end POS applications.

tesc_cctvpro 0 Posted June 12, 2011 Ok sorry, I misunderstood the question, I thought you specifically wanted to compare cheap images. This is an image from the fibridge cameras we are using - 15fps UXGA (1080p) This is the same camera running at 720p While there is a big jump from the bottom end to the higher end ------- with the right lens, both can achieve the same objective from a security or operational requirement perspective. I should just mention that I had to convert this video from the native video format to mp4 for the sake of capturing an image with my screen capture utility Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tesc_cctvpro 0 Posted June 12, 2011 LOL - it's quite late here --- so i got it wrong again, missed the analog part ------ heavens, we'll try another day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rory 0 Posted June 12, 2011 Last I checked the Dahua LE-AS was available from the manufacturer around $57-65 for a 4 channel - the cost of this 16 channel - which again is not what we normally use, is significantly below the cost of the 1604LE-A/S series and as you can see it's real 420TV line cameras --- which are also obsolete standards in our area of the woods!! But you said the DVR cost $400? Ofcourse can always get a DVR from amazon, I had a SuperDVR 4-ch USB DVR that only cost me $6! its in the trash now though for obvious reasons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The price of the DVR didn't really contribute specifically to the issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
