MaxIcon 0 Posted May 2, 2013 So, the Hikvision/Swann keeps the same field of view at both 1080p and 720p, which I believe is a smart move for a consumer oriented camera, since explaining this kind of thing to people without IP cam experience can be frustrating for both parties. Which MP IP cams keep the full field of view at lower resolution, besides Hikvision and Vivotek? Dahua crops when you switch to lower resolution, and there have been some threads complaining about this. What about other popular cams? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vin2install 0 Posted May 2, 2013 Don't most cameras keep the same FOV? 1920x1080 Main Stream 640x360 Sub Stream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shockwave199 0 Posted May 3, 2013 I've not noticed cropping in the dahua IPC-HDB3200C, and IPC-HDBW3202. Every resolution, be it 720p, 1080p, and even D1 substream show the exact same fov. Is it that I'm not analyzing it correctly? I'm just looking at the live views. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MaxIcon 0 Posted May 3, 2013 No, you're right. I was mis-remembering the complaint thread, which had to do with the 3MP vs 1080p settings, which have to be different FOVs. Never mind, carry on... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
