Verkada offers cameras with a range of resolutions. All of Verkada cameras record in adaptive quality, capturing both standard quality (SQ) and high quality (HQ) streams.

SQ video is stored up to the amount of retention specified by the customer.
The amount of HQ video stored on the camera depends on the amount of motion detected by the camera over time.
