Poor Imag Quality 960H Cameras

So we have a few of the Q-see QD6504B ($199.99 Retail). The quality SUCKS. Whats the deal is there some setting I need to mess with in the camera OSD. http://www.q-seestore.com/weatherproof-650-tvl-bullet-ccd-camera-with-150-ft-night-vision-qd6504b/

I have it recording a 960H Highest Quality 4FPS we have 9 of these things and they all function equally bad.

Buy a ready made kit and the best you can hope for is a COMPROMISE. SPREAD THE WORD PLEASE!

The DVR will only display and record what you send to it.

UNLESS... Hw are you connection your DVR to your diplay? VGA, HDMI, BNC?

OSDs do often have a sharpness setting, doesn't usually solve this sort of issue but it's worth a try

I hope you didn't pay $199 for it...$199 can get you a good 3mp Hikvision IP camera.

The angle looks wider than the 4.6mm they advertise it as. (looks like almost 90 deg angle, roughly a 2.8mm lens) Wider angle means your pixels will be more spread out and leading to blurry pictures. Is it varifocal?

Hi. You can't set dvr to 960H while just having standard none 960 cameras.

Try lower settings and get dvr up to around 7 to 10 fps

So i went ahead an broke the cameras open and to my surprise they were NOT focused correctly. So doing that times 9 cameras is a hassle but worth it. According to DPSI they are a 960H camera, I dont believe it.

I didnt pay a penny for them. I got it as a free upgrade from DPSI because the original system I was sold Failed so bad I didnt even want to bother backing up video of a theft because you couldn't make out anything.

I was offered an HD system and said no because I did not want to rewire.

I still think it should be at least a bit clearer.

Huh. Well pics of the focused cameras would be good to look at- post some please.

The image shows up it seems over brightness. It means not well programmed at parameter.
