I wish to set up a zm system based on wireless PTZ IP camera.
Would you please recommend me a model that is compatible with zm?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,

Thanks for your kind reply.
AXIS 213 and AXIS 214 are IP based PTZ camera. But they have no built-in wireless. Is there any camera model that support wireless, PTZ and IP and compatible with zm?
Cheers,

oopos sorry just spotted the ptz bit
dontthink there is a wireless ptz one, if i needed wireless then id use an access point. You can get a netgear access thing that is designed to make an xbox wireless. I have used one of these to make a zm box wireless before now. You would be able to plug your cam into this

Sony has also some excellent ptz cameras with superb optics..

Also - recommended on here (by a dealer, if I remember, if that has any bearing) - Gadspot.
No personal experience, though I see the presets are in the current ZM release and that they work. PTZ, Infra-Red, indoor/outdoor. Relatively cheap and seem an attractive once you get scared by Axis' pricelist of the upper range.
Only downside in the specs I could see this morning - no PoE, but you can add that with a dongle anyway. They are 12v which is widely supported by PoE adapters.
