Does such a list exist? By top I mean in sales revenue and certainly do not include any company that OEMs from others.
From what I know:
1) Hikvision
2) Dahua
3) Axis
Also Mobotix and Avigilon but are they in the top 10?

Feb 25, 2018From the examples you've provided it sounds like you're focusing on camera manufacturers. With that in mind and with notes on exceptions at the end, I would add the following to your Top 10 in terms of revenue:
Uniview
Hanwha Techwin
Tiandy
Bosch
Infinova
IDIS
Dynacolor
Vivotek
FLIR (thermal only & software)
Companies like Axis and Avigilon also have access control, software, etc. sales.
Pelco OEM many of their standard cameras although I believe majority of their PTZs and specialty enclosure (e.g. Exsite) products are still manufactured in-house and would land them in the top 10.

For what I know, is this an actual list of manufacturers.
Pelco(where we do Security in the Netherlands in Helmond near Eindhoven) doesn't make any camera on their own. they receive cameras from Taiwan(Vivotek??)
Hikvision make since 2 years or so their own cameras. United Technology Corporated(UTC) receive from several manufacturers the cameras. but the most I recognize from Geovision and Dahua. sometimes Vivotek.

Feb 25, 2018Julian, there is a number of problems with your list. Just to start, LTS and Speco definitely do make their own cameras. LTS is a Hikvision OEM and Speco has OMed various over the years, most recently Dahua.
I am removing your list because I am afraid of promoting clearly false information. I do appreciate your willingness to contribute. Email me at john@ipvm.com if you have questions or feedback.

Feb 25, 2018Who has more accurate information for my list, i would like to hear it.
Every brand would say they manufacture cameras on their own.

Feb 25, 2018Strictly speaking, 9 out of 10 'brands' easily do not make their own cameras.
There's 150+ across just these 2 directories that are OEMing, see: Dahua OEM Directory and Hikvision OEM Directory.
