Turret Camera vs Dome Camera, Which is Better?
There are various types of CCTV cameras nowadays, turret, dome, bullet, and many more. But out of all these cameras, there are two that stand out. Turret and dome, these two cameras look very similar in appearance, yet what they offer can be very different at the same time. Knowing the difference will help you out when it comes to buying a camera.
Dome Camera
The older of the two, it’s known by its dome-liked shape. Commonly seen in places like casinos, retail stores, and restaurants. This is due to their more fashionable appearance and because they can blend easily with their surroundings. Thanks to its dome shape, it’s difficult to tell which direction it’s facing. It usually has a vandal-proof dome and a metal base to protect it from abuse and the elements.
Turret Camera
Also known as mini-dome, eyeball or flat-faced dome camera, it has a ball and socket design which allows it to rotate freely once the base is mounted. It’s largely preferred thanks to this feature as it allows you to view multiple directions with a single camera. Most turret cameras are PoE( Power over Ethernet) which means that you don’t have to use a separate power cable to power it. This is due to its unique structure, which makes it difficult to make this camera wireless.
Moreover, some turret camera hikvision use EXIR night vision. This means that the infrared LED is separated from the camera lens and is rectangular, which allows a clearer image as compared to normal infrared.
Which should I use?
Both cameras have their strengths and weaknesses, which allows them to excel in different situations. Dome cameras are better in areas that are more prone to damage like vandalism as their dome protects them from whatever damage that may be attempted on it. Its dome makes it suitable for places where you don’t want people to be able to tell where the camera is facing.
On the other hand, turret cameras have a stronger night vision and a lack of a dome which makes them suited to places where you want to have as much clarity as possible.
