which pro quality ptz cam?

Post by cms »

So after reading here, I agree reviews are all subjective and hard to come by. Anyone have experience with some higher end ptz cameras that can comment? These would be used in public parks, day and night. So far I have narrowed the search down to the following, the Axis of course is the most expensive, mostly because it involves so many
separate parts.

bosch autodome ptz 300 About $2500 Don't find many people selling these, don't know if they are just restrictive on their dealers or they are not very popular. Nice thing is they include everything, outdoor dome w/ heater blower etc

panasonic WV-NW964 ~$3k More availability, then above, but includes entire package again like bosch.

Axis 233d ~$3300 by the time you get the camera, dome, dome mount, etc etc etc

Any suggestions? Any major players I have missed? The specs for the above all seem about the same.

Another good commercial system is Pelco, they make some nice domes just like Bosch and yes they limit their dealers :)
