How it is possible that my home security camera has better angles, more images and is more clear, then that of a bank?

Because the bank didn’t want to spend the money. It’s clear enough to see. Maybe you need new glasses.

Oddly, there’s a strong resemblance to the guy who robbed the bank in San Ramon who also had a black case in his hand.
