*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
It is good to be certain about what is happening in your home while you are away, especially these days. Home security cameras can be a big help when you want to keep your home safe and secure. When you install home surveillance cameras you will be able to monitor your children's activities or check on your nanny to make sure that everything is as it should be in your home.

There are several home security cameras to suit your surveillance needs. If you prefer surveillance at night or in areas of your home with low light, then an infrared camera is right for you. Instead of using regular lighting spectrum for recording images, infrared security cameras use infrared light to ensure that images are captured even in total darkness or poor lighting conditions. Some infrared security cameras record in black and white all the time, while others capture images in color during the day and switch to B/W at night.

You can convert a regular B/W home surveillance camera into an infrared camera if you use an infrared illuminator. These illuminators light the area to be monitored with infrared light. This infrared radiation allows your regular camera to record black and white images which would not be visible to the naked eye.

Day/night security cameras should not be confused with infrared cameras. Day/night home security cameras are able to record images in low light, but they do not use infrared lighting and are unable to capture images in complete darkness. You can also get infrared home surveillance cameras with a variety of options such as OSD (on screen display) and varifocal lenses. These options help to get the most versatility out of your camera.

The level at which you want your infrared option to perform depends on what you need.Infrared home security cameras can be adapted to meet your evolving security needs and can become more elaborate when necessary making them an excellent choice for home or business security.

Wireless IP home surveillance cameras are another type of home security cameras. These have high customization features and easily interact with any existing network in your home. They can also transfer recorded images in the form of a video feed, which you can easily store in your computer. Many wireless security cameras, however, have a built-in server space for saving memory.

Wireless IP home security cameras can be better than analog cameras for several reasons. One of the main reasons is the digital video feature in wireless IP surveillance cameras. The video feed can create DVD-quality video and uses a 5:1 compression ratio. The feed can be viewed in a standard web browser and enables quick scanning of archived files relating to a particular time period. The software that comes with many wireless IP home security cameras also provides time-stamping options as well as zooming in on a subject.

Wireless IP cameras can also come with motion sensors that tell the camera when they detect movement. The signal the sensors provide either initiates recording or switches the recorded image from low to high resolution. There are several types of outdoor wireless home security cameras, including infrared LED lighting and bullet security cameras.

Bullet security cameras are known as the best type of outdoor wireless home security cameras because they eliminate the need for external housing for the cameras to reflect infrared light.

Today's home security cameras are lightweight, user-friendly and easy to setup. Having these devices in your home can give you a sense of security and peace of mind while you are away.
