A genuine 5MP security camera should produce better images in both clarity and image quality from an aesthetic point of view.
1. Improved Clarity
5MP security cameras utilize an increased resolution, resulting in greater clarity compared to low-megapixel cameras. For instance, the 5MP IP camera provides at least twice the clarity of 2MP (1080p) cameras.
2. Better Image Quality
Not all 5MP security cameras offer genuine 5MP quality images. A real 5MP IP camera should not only possess better clarity but also exhibit better color purity and balance from an aesthetic perspective.
The 5MP security camera’s image sensor and lens contribute significantly to its performance.
Unfortunately, some 5MP security cameras enhance their resolution without upgrading the sensor and lens, resulting in poor image quality, as some users have experienced in CCTV forums.
In general, a 5MP IP camera should have a larger image sensor and a better lens to capture real 5MP pictures while also providing improved clarity and color performance.
ZOSI 5MP security cameras upgraded their image sensor to a larger 1/2.9” size and matching lens to deliver high-quality genuine 5MP images.
