Despite all of the advancements in technology of video, surveillance or security footage nearly always seems like its 2 decades out of date, blurry, grainy and monochromatic.
Smartphone cameras have many advancements like vivid colours and minute a size, but security cameras don't necessarily need to be capable of recording colour or to be small. Instead, they are more adapt at shooting in low-light conditions, high-contrast situations or such as a person wearing dark clothes at night.
Normal cameras can't conduct a good picture in such conditions, but security cameras have (IR) infrared technology that can illuminate a dark area and still generate a good picture.

So, conclusively, the CCTV footages are grainy and low quality because they are made different and their purpose is also different.

I thought it would be better not to delete or revamp these posts, even if they suck. The bitter truth is that old works always suck, but I take that as a positive tool to convey that I am growing. Besides there's no better way to showcase my journey without these old, messy, poorly written posts!
