Lower light levels at the time of viewing/recording and the distance the object is from the camera’s point of focus will also reduce the level of definition. Where the user has identified a specific purpose for the images, then this should be made clear to the surveyor who will tailor the design to meet this need.
4. The above specification has been prepared taking into account all information available to the Surveyor and is considered to be that best suited to this application within the limitations of cost. Should the customer consider that the degree of protection is in excess of requirements or, alternatively, that greater coverage is required the company's Surveyor will be pleased to discuss the matter further.

No extra charge is made for this service since a professional standard for this particular work cannot be guaranteed.
