CCTV Cameras
We stock over 100 CCTV cameras from Hikvision and HiLook, covering every installation type from a single home camera to a multi-site commercial system. All cameras are wired - we test everything in our Willenhall warehouse before we stock it, so we only sell kit we are confident in.
The first decision is format. HD over Coax cameras use your existing coax cabling and connect to a DVR - a practical choice if you are upgrading an older system. IP PoE cameras run on a single Cat5e cable that carries both power and data, and give you access to higher resolutions and features like AI person-detection. The two formats are not compatible with each other, so it is worth deciding early. If you are unsure, our CCTV buyers guide covers the differences in plain English, or give us a call on 01902 213 999.
This CCTV cameras hub is designed to help you understand the different types of security camera available,
compare the main features, and choose the right option for your home or business. Whether you are looking for
a simple camera to cover a front door, a wider view for a driveway, or a high performance model with colour
night vision, zoom, audio or 4K resolution, you can explore the categories below to find the best fit or see all our CCTV cameras at the bottom.
Choose your format
This is the first decision to make, and it's the one that shapes the rest of your system. The format you choose locks in your recorder (NVR for IP, DVR for analogue HD), the cabling you'll run, and how easily you can expand later. For most customers the call comes down to the install. If you already have coax from an older system, analogue HD lets you reuse every metre of it and swap in modern 2MP to 8MP cameras with no rewiring required. For a fresh install IP is usually the better long-term choice, particularly anywhere you want PoE simplicity, a single cable carrying both data and power. Picture quality at the resolutions most customers buy is closer than people think, so this decision is really about install practicality rather than image. The one exception is the very top end, where IP now reaches 12MP and 16MP while analogue tops out at 8MP.
Browse by style
Most spec is available across turret, bullet and dome, and you'll see plenty of advice that says pick on aesthetics. We sell roughly 10 times more turrets than bullets and domes combined, and there's a good reason for that. Turrets offer the best of both styles. They're easy to aim like a bullet, discreet and often vandal-rated like a dome, but without the IR reflection problems that domes can suffer from when dust, spider webs or condensation build up on the glass. That makes domes better suited to internal installs where those issues are less common. PTZs are a different category altogether, best suited to manned sites or very large areas, and they work alongside fixed cameras rather than replacing them.
