Interesting so 6FPS is ok? Even though real time is 25?

 

Why is there options for 60 FPS?

Some of them mean fields per second not frames 25 frames is realtime. Women and Germans are impressed by big numbers so thats why manufacturers like to put high numbers on stuff

on external cameras we set to continuous recording with a FPS of 2-10, and bump it up to anywhere between 18 and 25 on motion with a 20s pre and 30-60s post.

on internal cameras it depends on the scenario obviously but generally have them the same as external during business hours and set to record only on motion out of hours with a 20s pre and 30-60s post.

As a rule:-  Best Quality possible. Limit the frame rate for your duration.

Anything over 12fps is pointless IMO.

 

The guide I use is 1-5fps scheduled and 6-12fps motion/alarm (if available), depending on storage time.

 

Better to have 2 weeks of quality footage than 4 months of useless high fps rubbish.
