C261 5MP Security System + 4K 8-Channel PoE NVR + 2TB Hard Drive

If you need a balance between image quality and storage space and have a limited budget, a 5MP camera is a practical option.

4K is generally considered better than 5MP in terms of video or image quality, but factors including color accuracy, dynamic range, contrast, and overall image processing are also important.

Better Scalability: PoE cameras offer better scalability compared to traditional power-wired cameras. They are quicker to install and easier to scale up as needed. Adding additional security cameras is as simple as adding extra network connections, without the need for complex wiring.
