Neutech Posted January 14, 2009 Posted January 14, 2009 Neither to be honest you have a security light so forget IR onboard unless you fancy cleaning spiders webs off it every few days 520 / 540 TVL and go for varifocal so at least you can set the lens to where you want to see, Cut filter not as expensive as you think and better picture Quality

james.wilson Posted January 14, 2009 Posted January 14, 2009 also id strongly advise against comparing specs alone. I have seen many a med res high quality brand give a far higher quality than a so called 540tvl 'SONY' chipped cheap camera. I have an intel processor in my main pc but the rest of its cheap sh!te..... i is it an intel PC?.... if you see what i mean securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
