Compare CCTV Resolution

Analogue versus IP Camera Resolution

The biggest difference between analogue and megapixel I.P. CCTV surveillance systems is the resolution (quality and size) of the footage and images being produced at the camera and recorded at the DVR/NVR.

Camera Resolutions

Analogue Cameras

The maximum resolution available on an analogue surveillance system is limited to D1 resolution which is 720 x 576 pixels (PAL) or equivilent to 0.4 megapixel. Even if a higher resolution camera (such as a 700 TVL camera with a resolution of 1020 x 596 pixels) is used, after the video signal has been digitized in a digital video recorder it will still only display and record at D1 resolution. The image below shows the range of availble resolutions, the maximum of which is D1 (720 x 576).
