5/6MP Preferences: Details, Decreasing Costs
Those mentioning 5MP as their most common camera resolution cited stronger details as their reason for choosing a higher resolution.
  • "5MP was the most common, though we usually use a good mix of 2MP to 8MP in most deployments. 5MP gives a good image in most lighting conditions."
  • "5MP. It has become the standard in design offered and what the customer prefers."
  • "5MP. This seems to be the new minimum standard that most of our customers want."
  • "5mp. Fits customer needs and pricepoint, often spec'd on bid projects."
  • "5MP We have been seeing an increase in enterprise clientele that require analytics and resolution is always a factor for glean additional data."
  • "5MP price has been acceptable"
  • "6MP. We used to use 4MP, but our OEM stopped providing 4MP with the specs we needed, so we went to 6MP."
  • "6MP. As a common resolution for general camera usage. Performance vs cost is good."
4K Costs Dropping
Finally, several integrators mentioned 4K camera pricing decreasing to become the best dollar to megapixel ratio with stronger image quality.
  • "4K outdoor, 1080p interior; and more 4K than 1080p. In addition to higher resolution offering better evidentiary results, we try to future-proof our (mostly government) customers who have long funding cycles and won't be able to upgrade their systems for another ten years."
  • "8mp for the areas with enough light, 3mp if I need a good night picture. More megapixels - more details, it's that simple :), and the 8mp has the best $/mp ratio."
  • "8MP, wonderful resolution vs price"
  • "4k, fit the price point"
  • "4K, might as well for price"
  • "8MP [4K] because image quality and resolution matter."
