When choosing a security camera, most people focus on resolution, such as 2MP, 4MP, or 8MP.
But there’s another important component that often gets overlooked: the CMOS sensor. The CMOS sensor plays a major role in determining how well a security camera captures images, especially in low-light conditions. In this article, I’ll explain what a CMOS sensor is, how it works, and the different sensor sizes commonly found in modern security cameras.
Understanding these features will help you choose a camera with night vision capabilities that best suit your needs.
