Yeah, but how and where would you store video at 108mp and probably at 30F/ps? If less than $200 is all you get for your kidneys, you're selling yourself short. That iPhone is over $1000 and then some.

We've put all our eggs in one basket, so to speak. Since we don't manufacture much any more, we are at the mercy of other countries. They dictate when and how we will get our goods, and for how much.

There is no easy way out of the shortage, other companies starting to create new facilities to furfill the demand but takes years to setup these plants, so we have a couple of rough years still.

Its 200$ x 8 + nvr

God, be quiet
So go buy eight iPhones and STFU. That's total out to about $10,000 and you'll have your cherished 108mp. It's the market and what the market needs. Surveillance video does not need to be 108mp plain and simple.

You always ask the same questions month for month

"WHERE IS A 108MP CAMERA FOR 10USD"
"WHY IS EVERYTHING SO EXPENSIVE"
"WHY CANT THEY DELIVER ITS JUST A LOW RESOLUTION CAMERA, SMARTPHONES HAVE 10 TRILLION PIXELS"

So it seems that you still didnt read the cliff notes or even the answers you got.

So the main question is:
Why dont you just mount your smartphone outside and watch your lovely HD image? :)

The chip shortage isn't going away anytime soon. It's likely the export ban not COVID.

Whilst ever Xi is in charge of China and the hostile attitdue towards the West and Taiwan continues, the situation won't improve. The only way it's going to resolve in the meantime is if China copies the lithography or develops it's own chips to replace the ones banned.
