Sony Bullet Home Security Cameras

Protecting Your Home With Sony Home Security Cameras

Having security cameras installed in a home lets you monitor any area and potentially scare away home intruders. Home security systems can provide peace of mind for homeowners. Cameras from Sony come with helpful options like night vision and swiveling arms, so it is easy to capture footage in a variety of situations.

Most of the modern Sony technology is designed to be connected to a computer either wirelessly or with a cable. Once you confirm all the settings and connect everything to your network, you will be able to view images and videos from the camera by opening the appropriate program on your computer. Some devices also have the option of transmitting a signal to a television or other monitoring device.

1. Find a location to put up your camera. Common options are areas above doors, next to windows, pointed at pathways, or monitoring a certain area of your property.
2. Make sure the security camera is installed in a convenient location for power and other cables if it is not a wireless model.
3. Mount the baseplate for the camera by screwing it into position. It is best to install the camera along the studs or joists in a wall. If desired, run the cables through the interior of the wall.
4. Mount the device onto the base plate.

Depending on the model you select, you can find some of these helpful features.

• Infrared: Models with an infrared feature allow homeowners to see footage even when it is very dark in the area.
• Outdoor: Security models created for outdoor areas may have extra protection against harsh weather.
• Coated lenses: Coated lenses help to cut down on glare and reflection, which helps preserve image quality.
• HD: Security devices with an HD option provide very crisp image quality.
• Vandal resistant: Items with this feature have a housing installed around them to make it harder for people to vandalize the devices.

These two styles can be distinguished by their shape and location. A dome is shaped like half of a sphere, and is normally hung from a ceiling. Bullet network cameras have an elongated, cylindrical shape, and they can be mounted on the side of a wall. Domes tend to have a smaller lens, while bullet styles tend to be larger and have options for long range and night vision filming.
