A web security camera is specifically designed to have a wide view of vision to be able to view an entire area or room at just a glance. When considering a location to set up the camera look to place the security camera as high as possible so as no one can get to it. You may have to set up additional lights if needed in the area you wish to have monitored, areas such as hallways, backdoors, side of buildings may need a higher level of illumination for the security camera to deliver a decent video feed.
Video image quality is an important feature in a web security camera since peoples lives and property are at risk, images captured from these cameras can be stored on a hard disc or on a dedicated storage server. The advantage of a network web security camera is that its easy to install and its able to function even if there is a power failure.
