The FOV (field of view) rating is one which defines the height and width of the image captured. So, it is important to consider whether you want to monitor simple traffic (i.e. what is happening) or faces of people and number plates of cars etc. At last it is so important to know how much area you need to cover and from what distance and where to install the CCTV in order to serve you best. It is also important to select a monitor that matches the resolution of your camera.
