Recommendations

For reliable image quality, position the camera to avoid direct bright lights in the frame and ensure the lens is kept clean. When installing outdoors, mount under a suitable overhang or use weatherproof housings if exposure to severe weather is expected. Integrate the camera with an NVR or VMS that supports 6MP streams and configure retention policies to balance storage and footage retention needs.
