  • • PTZ cameras- commonly called as PAN-TILT-ZOOM(PTZ) camera. Capable of remote directional and zoom control. Ceiling mounted or suspended from the wall-mounted bracket.
  • • IP network camera- Internet protocol camera. A camera captures control data and delivers the picture through the Internet.
  • • Hidden cameras- used to record people without their knowledge to know or record to check on something.

Advantages of CCTV cameras
  • • Deter crime: If the employees know that there are cameras then they are much less likely to try and steal from the office. If a criminal sees that the store has cameras then they would be more likely to just move on to an easier target.
  • • Maintain documentation and evidence: This allows the cameras to be more effective than ever at offering a record of how things happen. In legal cases, eyewitnesses can forget some information or keep in mind the order of the events as they happened. However, with CCTV, the authorities or the court can see the real series of activities as they occurred.
