Could anyone tell me if there is any advantage to having a 4MP camera connected to a Dahua 4K NVR, recording at 2560X1440 if I am only using a 1080P monitor for playback?
It would seem to me that this setup would allow me to get a higher resolution when I use the digital zoom during playback because of the number of pixel in the recorded file. Maybe I am looking at this all wrong.
Thanks
You are, the benefit is when you zoom in for identification.
But surely you will gain nothing as the original definition will not be changed and so what you see in zoom will be no better. You will just fill up your hard drive quicker.
