Inefficient Field of View
The positioning of the camera is a very crucial and critical task to do in the procedure of security system installation. It’s so because the position of the camera decides the field of view and wrong positioning will result as an inefficient field of view. Newbies, DIY enthusiasts, and even some amateur installer will point the camera in such a way that it looks all right but they miss the area which is their below the camera itself.
We suggest you to pointing a camera in a certain way that the top of the picture is the doorway for indoors and for outside we recommend removing the sky form the screen.
Ineffective Camera Placement
The most common fault people do is the ineffective placement of the camera. Most fixed lens cameras get up to a ninety-degree field of view. If you install a camera in the middle of a wall in a room you are going to miss space to the left and right of the camera. Our advice for you is to place the camera in the corner of the room where it can capture most of the space.
Waste Hard Drive Space
