Security systems in business settings, in warehouses, retail outlets, factories, even places which are basically meant for hospitality like hotels and restaurants are coming to rely increasingly on surveillance cameras. Sony is a giant in electronics equipment and has understandably not lagged behind in creating security cameras. The Sony HD surveillance camera is worth taking note of. Its 1/3” Sony Super HAD CCD, with 480 TV Lines and 0 LUX (IR lamps on) is a popular model — just keep in mind the CCD used in it is Sony's, not the camera itself.

PTZ cameras are good for wider areas because they allow the user to manipulate the angle of the camera lens, change its view and move close to a subject. This is a very flexible camera to use, allowing for necessary adjustments in terms of direction and focus. The Sony PTZ surveillance cameras are the dome cameras which are their most popular range too.
The dome cameras are discreet cameras and used primarily in businesses like hotel lobbies or restaurants, where a less visible camera is desired. They look like a black dome and can fit into the ceiling. Sony also makes a great dome camera for use outdoors. These outdoor dome cameras are vandal resistant and you can get one that works great in daytime or nighttime for the ultimate picture quality. With a CCTV set-up, you need separate cables to control the PTZ feature of your camera. With a network camera, it's all done over the network. With integrated I/O, it can trigger anything, and be triggered by anything.
