Resolution is one factor
Camera resolution should be considered together with lens angle, lighting, compression, recorder support, hard-drive capacity and the purpose of each camera view.

Higher-resolution footage may require more storage and recorder capacity. SonSec checks recorder compatibility and recording expectations before recommending upgrades.
