Fixed vs PTZ IP Cameras


Fixed vs. PTZ IP Cameras       

Fixed IP cameras are network cameras placed in fixed positions. Therefore, they have fixed viewing directions and angles. A fixed network camera is, therefore, used to survey the same area of a property without ever panning away. Although they are fixed, these cameras may also be equipped with different lenses to enhance their functions. On the other hand, a PTZ IP camera can pan, tilt, and zoom using either manual or automatic controls. This wide range of motion allows one camera to conduct surveillance from different directions and multiple angles, which makes it ideal for continuously tracking an object of interest and zooming to investigate.
Besides the usual box form, both fixed and PTZ IP cameras come in a dome form factor. A dome IP camera shares most of the properties of a regular, boxy IP camera. For example, a fixed dome IP camera points only in one direction like a regular fixed IP camera; however, dome cameras offer certain benefits over regular IP cameras. For example, a PTZ dome IP camera can swivel 360 degrees.
