How to choose an IP camera in Singapore

Choose an IP camera on four things: resolution, lens angle, night performance and whether it is rated for outdoor use. For general indoor coverage a 1080P camera is enough; for entrances and outdoor areas choose 4MP with colour night video. With a recorder and 1TB hard disk, a Hikvision 1080P IP camera costs S$479 and a Uniview 4MP colour-night camera costs S$499.

What should you compare when choosing an IP camera?

These four specifications decide what you will actually be able to see in the footage.

SpecificationWhat it affectsGuide
ResolutionDetail when you zoom in1080P for rooms, 4MP for entrances
Lens angleHow much area one camera seesWide for rooms, narrower for gates and corridors
Night performanceBlack-and-white infrared or colourColour night at entrances and outdoors
Outdoor ratingWhether it survives rainRequired for any exposed position

Wired IP camera or Wi-Fi camera?

Both are IP cameras. A wired one records to an NVR over a network cable and suits permanent positions. A Wi-Fi camera records to a memory card and suits indoor spots where you cannot run a cable. Wired is the safer choice wherever the footage really matters.

Which is the better buy: 1080P or 4MP?

4MP has about twice the pixels of 1080P, which shows when you zoom into a face or a number plate. If the camera watches a doorway, a counter or a gate, pay for 4MP. If it watches a room to show what happened, 1080P does the job and uses less storage.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between an IP camera and CCTV?

An IP camera is a type of CCTV camera. It sends digital video over a network cable, where older analog cameras send it over coaxial cable.

Do IP cameras record sound?

Models with a built-in microphone do. Ask for one if you need audio.

Can I view an IP camera on my phone?

Yes, through the maker's app: Hik-Connect for Hikvision and Eye4 for Vstarcam.

    Absolutely happy with the service! Prabu, the installer was patient and meticulous with the setup and he took the time to walk me through everything clearly. Richard, the sales coordinator, was friendly and very accommodating—he explained the different options at my budget without any pressure. Smooth, professional and trustworthy experience from start to finish. Highly recommended.
