And most of them have a slower fps, which means it isn't a constant video feed, instead it take pictures every second or whatever speed its timed at. So that it takes up less memory to record. The newer surveillance systems have a lot more storage so images will be getting better and videos will be in a higher resolution.-ScottyB
