luimac 0 Posted September 10, 2013 Hey all, I have a customer with a condo on the 37 floor. Has a wonderful view of Downtown. He is about 4 miles away. He asked for a HD camera, mountable, with HDMI out and a great zoom in order to view as much detail as possible of Downtown. Can any of you recommend a solid camera?

ssnapier 0 Posted September 11, 2013 I do not know of a single Megapixel camera with an HDMI port, they simply don't work like that. Is this going to be used for any type of security or surveillance? Does he want it recorded? As for the zoom, I would say 20x or better. Most of the nicer ones are 32 or 37x zoom, but you are going to need to output this camera to something. Either a computer or an NVR, both of which would have the HDMI he is asking for. I am thinking that to get the type of camera you are talking about, that will ensure a very high quality image and a smooth mechanism for pan, tilt and zoom functions, you will be in the $1500 to $3000 range just for the camera.

luckyfella 0 Posted September 12, 2013 I have a feeling the 'scenic' view he wants to see is the lady that walks around naked in the building 1/2 mile away! LOL! " title="Applause" /> " title="Applause" /> " title="Applause" /> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
