Standard resolution security cameras days appear to be numbered, according to analysts from IMS Research.
At a presentation, Gary Wong, Senior Research Analyst for video surveillance and VCA at IMS Research, said the development of high resolution and megapixel cameras has made the costs between HD and SD negligible. The expectation is that many security camera manufacturers will phase out the SD cameras over the next 18 months.

An article said that “while the industry's continued migration to IP video solutions is expected to continue, Wong said that more than 60 percent of sales in North America in 2010 were of analog products. However, Wong said that sales of network products are expected to surpass analog by 2014. The surveillance market as a whole was estimated to be worth US$ 2.8 billion in 2010 and is expected to exceed $3.9 billion by 2014.”
