12MP Security Cameras

Maximum resolution for professional applications. 12MP security cameras deliver 50% more detail than 4K, enabling extreme digital zoom, wide-area coverage with cropping capability, and forensic-level evidence capture.

Security Cameras Australia stocks 12MP cameras from Hikvision, Axis, Hanwha, and other leading brands.

Key Features of 12MP Cameras

  • 4000 x 3000 resolution (typical)
  • 50% more pixels than 4K/8MP
  • Extreme digital zoom capability
  • Wide-area coverage with detail retention
  • Higher bandwidth and storage needs
  • Enterprise and specialist focus

Why Choose 12MP Cameras?

12MP cameras serve applications where even 4K isn't enough—wide public spaces where you need to identify individuals at extreme range, or scenarios where a single camera must cover an area that would otherwise need multiple 4K units. Professional-grade resolution for demanding environments.

12MP vs 8MP: When to Upgrade

Most applications are well-served by 8MP/4K. Choose 12MP when you need to identify faces from 25m+, cover very wide areas with a single camera, or require maximum forensic detail. Consider the significant storage and bandwidth increase in your planning.

Popular Applications

12MP cameras suit city surveillance, large public venues, stadium monitoring, critical infrastructure, and any application where extreme detail and wide-area coverage must combine. Often used in panoramic multi-sensor configurations.

Compare with 8MP 4K Security Cameras for different resolution options. For related products, browse Panoramic Security Cameras. You may also need PTZ Security Cameras.

Frequently Asked Questions about 12MP Security Cameras

What is 12MP resolution?

12MP equals approximately 4000x3000 pixels—50% more detail than 4K/8MP. This ultra-high resolution suits specialised applications requiring maximum image detail.

When would I need 12MP cameras?

12MP cameras suit large open areas, critical infrastructure, panoramic views, and applications where identification from significant distances is required. Common in commercial/industrial settings.

What are the storage requirements for 12MP?

12MP cameras generate large files—approximately 50-60GB per day per camera with H.265 compression. Enterprise-grade storage solutions are typically required.

Do standard NVRs support 12MP?

Most consumer NVRs don't support 12MP. You'll need professional-grade NVRs with high decoding capacity and appropriate bandwidth for these ultra-high-resolution streams.

Is 12MP practical for residential use?

For typical residential applications, 12MP is excessive. The storage, bandwidth, and NVR requirements aren't justified when 4MP-8MP provides ample detail for home security.
