Unless selecting a vari-focal camera (with an adjustable lens) It is important to select the correct camera lens option for where the camera is to be positioned. A smaller lens will give you a wider angle but will be "zoomed out more", while a bigger lens will narrow the angle down and "zoom in more". See below to give you some idea on angles of Megapixel HD Cameras:
| Lens in mm | Approx Viewing Angle (degrees) | Ideal Distance (metres) | Typical usage/notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.8 | 106 | <6 | For seeing as much of the immediate area as possible such as above a doorway/low down/garage soffits (edges can appear slightly warped/distorted) - clearly "zoomed out" |
| 3.6/4 | 83-90 | <12 | A great general purpose option giving great coverage still in the corner of a room or higher up on second floor soffits with less distortion - more of a natural "zoom" |
| 6 | 56 | 6-20 | Narrows down the angle and zooms in to look past the immediate area a little to gain more detail - down a driveway for example from higher up |
| 12 | 24 | 20+ | Zooms in significantly more to look at a gate, entrance or adjascent building |
| 16 | 19 | 24+ | As above but more so |
The amount of hard drive space you require is dictated by how many cameras, as well as their resolution, frame rate settings, and whether you have H.265 encoding enabled or not to save space (We advise turning it on to double the capacity shown below with ease).
Finally, you can often make your storage space last a lot longer by enabling motion-detected recording rather than continuous, especially if there are long periods of no activity (to perhaps double or more these figures again).

Resolution (Megapixels) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per camera (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (50% motion- 15 frames per second) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 44 | 11 | 36 |
| 2 | 22 | 5 | 18 |
| 3 | 17 | 4 | 14 |
| 4 | 11 | 3 | 9 |
| 5 | 9 | 2 | 8 |
| 6 | 8 | 2 | 6 |
| 8 (4K) | 5 | 1 | 4 |
| 12 | 4 | 0.5 | 3 |
As a rule of thumb, we recommend 2 Terabytes for a 4 x 4/5MP HD camera setup, as this should give you approx 2 weeks using H.265 @ 20fps and that is on continuous, not motion-detected recording.
(You may only require the full 25 frames per second on certain cameras if things are fast-moving - ie above a till)

HIKMICRO HM-A50T 1080P Day & Night Riflescope
PLEASE NOTE: 2X CR123A BATTERIES ARE NO LONGER INCLUDED
The HIKMICRO ALPEX A50T is breaking new ground when it comes to colour night vision performance, offering a true colour image in twilight to no light this pound for pound NV giant bridges the gap between ultra high performance and fantastic pricing. The unique 1/1.18 inch sensor and 3D DNR image algorithm provide clarity images even in low light conditions of 0.001 lux this is what helps you find a clear and detailed image of your target even in the dark and starry skies. The 1440x1080 HD CMOS sensor gives a ground-breaking image in both day and night. Making the HikMicro Alpex the obvious winner when it comes to LOW-LIGHT HUNTING.
The HIKMICRO ALPEX A50T with its advanced sensor technology and image processing delivers a detailed, full-color image throughout the day - automatically adjusting to twilight and continuing to display an amazing full-colour image up until total darkness.
When darkness sets in, a single button press activates the black-and-white night mode and the performance of the The HIKMICRO ALPEX A50T sensor shines again. Any ambient light such as the moon or starlight is enough to provide a basic image while adding the supplied IR torch allows you to see a highly detailed view of your surroundings.
This combination of day and night performance on the HIKMICRO ALPEX gives a true 24/7 performance. Thanks to the high DNR and purple fringing correction algorithim the unit performances brilliantly in reduce any abnormal noise and creates a edge to edge performance that an German optical engineer would be proud of. This detail and image resolution allows the shooter to distinguish the minutest detail which may have been missed when using a competitors optic.
The HIKMICRO ALPEX A50T is built on a traditional 30mm rifle scope tube chassis the Alpex is easy to mount using conventional rifle scope rings and retains the classic look of your rifle. The rifle scope tube also hosts the two internal lithium batteries that provide an outstanding 13 hours of runtime. The top turret that traditionally contains the windage adjustment holds a battery compartment where you can add an additional CR123a to gain an extra hour of runtime in an emergency.
The ergonomic design puts all of the major controls of the The HIKMICRO ALPEX A50T within easy reach.
Rolling the jog dial up and down controls your digital magnification (3.5x – 14x). Press and hold this in to access the menu which includes a simplified zeroing system with the inclusion of freeze-frame and magnification. Advanced software provides up to 5 zeroing profiles allowing you to use the Alpex on multiple Rifles. The versatile magnification of the HIKMICRO ALPEX A50T makes this rifle scope the perfect choice for all types of hunting from daytime deer stalking to close range rabbit control right out to long range range foxing at 300 yards.

Connecting to the HIKMICRO Sight app makes it quick and easy to share these memories with your friends or stream the output from the scope in real time while you are in the field with your hunting buddy.
Please note: The sensor used in the Alpex is extremely sensitive so does not require a high-power IR torch to provide a clear image, you may notice overexposure if used with extremely powerful VCSEL torches.
PLEASE NOTE: NO SCOPE RINGS COME WITH THIS RIFLE SCOPE.
Furthermore, please be advised that the supplied charger is designed for the IR torch battery.
