Full-HD resolution (1920x1080) is more than enough usually - higher resolution casues more CPU or network load and may not be working on smaller sized laptops.
Standard framerate of 25/30 Hz is enough (50/60 Hz are fine as well) - no need for higher framerates.

Some of the cameras can also be bought without housing (without -LE in model description) and are then not water-proof. But you can buy a custom house from ALGE-Timing WP-IDCAM that can help.
