"Security Camera" and "CCTV Camera" Are the Same Thing

In Kenya, "security camera" and "CCTV camera" refer to the same equipment -- the terms are used interchangeably. Whichever term you search with, the same real product range applies: bullet, dome, PTZ and Wi-Fi cameras, at a wide range of price points.

What to Expect at a Lower Price Point

Basic night vision

Standard infrared rather than colour night vision -- still functional, less detailed after dark.

2MP resolution

Enough to see what happened; less able to read fine detail like number plates at a distance.

Shorter IR range

Fine for a small room, entrance or till point; less suited to a large outdoor area.

Genuinely functional

Affordable doesn't mean unreliable -- it means fewer premium features, not lower build quality by default.

Common questions

Is "security camera" the same as "CCTV camera"?

Yes -- these terms are used interchangeably in Kenya and refer to the same equipment.

What's a realistic affordable starting price?

Individual basic cameras start from around KES 3,000 -- see our current pricing for exact, up-to-date figures.

Are affordable cameras reliable?

Yes, for the right use case -- a lower-spec camera watching a close-range area like an entrance or till point works fine. Reliability comes more from correct installation than price bracket.
