If you know what you need going in, then you won’t pay extra for features and equipment that you won’t use. Most wireless security cameras on the market are for indoor use. At first glance, indoor security cameras may seem all alike, but they vary in key areas, such as when they film, video quality, video storage, and size. Cameras can film continuously, only when triggered by a build in or connected motion detector, when you schedule, or when you remotely access the camera. They may or may not include a built in motion sensor. Cameras vary in the resolution quality of their film, in their field of view, and in key features built in microphone, light, night vision, etc. Security cameras typically offer two options for storing videos, either on a local SD card or on the cloud. Sometimes cameras offer both. For cameras that use the cloud, you may have to purchase a subscription to the cloud storage service, or the cloud may only come with monitoring. In rare cases, companies will offer stand alone cameras like SimpliSafe’s SimpliCam that offer free video streaming that you can access from your phone or computer.
