Swann Question

Recommended Posts

I am looking at the Swann SWDVK-844004 kit for a basic setup at my home. The kit comes with 4 Pro A850 720p cameras and a 1Tb DVR. I was wondering if anyone was at all familiar with this setup as far as the actual manufacturer of the components and reliability etc.

Swans are re-branded Hikvision cameras, probably the Hikvision 1.3MP bullet model.

Not all swann is rebranded hikvsion...this is an hd over analog coax system..if op is installing new then ip cameras and an NVR should be used.

The last hd swann system i had was good in the day but the night vision was very poor even over a short distance

This is because you did not properly set the WDR and other settings for night vision...also, 3mp cameras have worse night vision than comparative 1.3 and 2mp cameras.
