PTZ cameras - Google Search Edition

PTZ cameras have so many different qualities to them, and the Google Search recommendations make that very clear. We went to Google to see what the most common search terms were for PTZ cameras. Then, we went through our PTZ camera catalog and found solutions for the top searches. Here’s the result!

Search #1: PTZ Camera Meaning

We’re starting with “PTZ camera meaning” because there’s no better way to start a blog about PTZ cameras than explaining what a PTZ camera is. PTZ stands for Pan, Tilt and Zoom. A PTZ camera can pan horizontally, tilt on a vertical axis and zoom in or out. Each PTZ camera is different in how wide of an angle it can pan, how far up and down it can tilt, and how close it can zoom in. These specifications are always available, so you can choose the right PTZ camera for your environment. 

Some get confused when trying to differentiate between PTZ and ePTZ. PTZ cameras make Pan, Tilt and Zoom operations physically. Meaning, when the camera pans, it will actually move left and right. On the other hand, ePTZ cameras make these operations digitally. We have blogs specially about PTZ and ePTZ if you’d like to learn more!
