    • Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)

Wireless cameras still require cables for receiving power but are able to transmit footage via a wireless network.)

Q: What is the resolution of this system and is the system IP capatible? Is the system wireless?

A: This is a 900 TV line resolution, wired security system. It is not IP-based but can be accessed remotely once configured for network monitoring.

Q: Can BestBuy install the cameras?

A: Good evening. Best Buy doesn't provide installation services. Night Owl recommends InstallerNet and you can visit them at www.installernet.com. Thanks for choosing Night Owl.

Q: How much for extra cameras

A: Good morning. You can purchase additional analog cameras from Best Buy Online by visiting http://www.bestbuy.com/site/night-owl-indoor-outdoor-security-camera-white/9745199.p?id=1219434426368&skuId=9745199. We offer additional options on our web store as well. Thanks for choosing Night Owl.

Q: Footage of distance

A: This includes sixteen 60' camera cable bundles.

Q: Question on motion sensors

A: Good Morning Mike. You can set the recording preference for each channel individually. You can motion record on some, 24/7 record on others and even schedule record. Once logged into your DVR, these settings can all be set and changed within the Record Menu. Under premium conditions, a 2 TB HDD can last up to 24 months. However, with 16 cameras recording 24/7 you may realistically get a couple of weeks. There is no sd slot to save the footage to, but you can backup recordings to a USB drive. Thanks for choosing Night Owl.

Q: how many hours of recording does a 2tb system give you if your on vacation. how do I order extra cameras & wire to connect them.

A: Good Afternoon. A 2 TB HDD can allow for up to 24 months of storage, depending on your settings. If you set the system to record 24/7 you are going to drastically cut down on that max storage time frame. I would recommend setting your system to motion record, so the cameras only record when motion is detected. That will extend your HDD life. These 900 TVL (model CAM-930) cameras are available on our webstore at www.nightowlsp.com. Thanks for choosing Night Owl.
