I need an outdoor PTZ camera with a tilt angle greater than 90 degrees, in other words it must tilt to an angle above horizontal. My installation is already wired for coax with BNC and RS 485 connectors, so I would like to keep this setup. Also need at least 25X zoom. Any suggestions on a camera with these capabilities?

I would like to place a surveillance camera on a building that is approximately 800' away from my recorder. I have tried CAT 5 cable and that works except that about once a year we have a lightning storm that takes out the camera or the recorder card in my computer. There is a dense growth of trees between the two locations, so there is no straight line clear visibility path between the two locations. I do have a Dakota Alert wireless security system that operates on 151.820 Mhz that works quite well between the two locations. Looking for suggestions on how to operate a PTZ security camera between these two locations without a wired connection. Not interested in purchasing a monitored system. Thanks

I need a replacement for a PTZ outdoor camera. The current camera is wired, NTSC video, RS485, IR capable, 24X zoom. I would like to keep my current wiring in place (no wireless please). I am having difficulty finding a camera that has a tilt angle above 90 deg. (horizontal) My camera is located at the bottom of a small hill and I need a tilt angle of at least 5 degrees above horizontal. Any recommendations? Thanks,Charles
