    Can somebody explain the resolution modes to me?

    Thanks guys. @zero-degrees Thanks for the link, I'm aware of that phenomenon because I encountered it when going from 12MP to 36MP in my last DSLR upgrade. I had seen some comments saying that 2MP(1080P) mode on a 3MP Hik would actually be a wider angle of view than when it is running in 3MP...
