Fixed Camera

PTZ cameras are seen as the answer to an organisation’s comprehensive and in-close-detail surveillance needs, by many security managers; thanks, in part, to Hollywood movies (remember the movie “The Bourne Ultimatum”, where there is a scene set in a railway station, with PTZ cameras moving via remote control and closely tracking the suspect).
The fact is that deployment of PTZ cameras raises as many issues as it solves. Security managers will do well to consider these, to ensure that in deploying PTZ cameras they do not degrade, instead of improving, the capability of the surveillance infrastructure.
PTZ cameras, thanks to the Zoom capability, are able to provide a more detailed view of a surveillance target.
