Much confusion exists around the use of terminology like IP CCTV, Digital CCTV, Analogue CCTV and so on - and often the security specialist himself can be misinformed.
Mini Dome Cameras (usually referred to as 'Mini Domes') are a very practical and economical alternative to box/body cameras for internal applications like shops, restaurants and office space etc.
Predominantly (but not exclusively) Mini-Domes are not weather proof nor vandal resistant, but come in the most cost effective and reduced housing/ heater and mounting option, which really is their most attractive purpose. They are all-in-one camera solutions and can be installed swiftly and at a low cost - especially where vandalism and the effects of weather are not an issue.
PTZ stands for and signifies the camera's ability to Pan, Tilt and Zoom. Effectively this means that the camera can be controlled from a remote location, such as a control room, a keyboard/joystick in an office or in a security watch room etc.
Traditionally analogue CCTV-Cameras can only apply brightness controlling mechanisms and technologies to the entire video image. The technologies used to achieve this are either an Auto-Iris (by adjusting the iris opening for more or less light onto the CCD Chip) or AES (for adjustment of the light per second per video frame).
Up until recent times the choice of CCTV System situation was relatively simple; Low budget = (outdated) DVR based Analogue CCTV versus higher budget = HD IP CCTV. It was still relatively simple to outline the principal advantages and operational key attributes of either solution.
