Hello,

I'm looking for a 180 degree or 360 degree camera that also offers PTZ. Either a fisheye, dome, or bullet.

In other words, I would like to simultaneously record a full overview while also recording separate streams of zoomed in areas on specific pieces of equipment within the overview.

We are using Synology RS2418+ NAS device, so I'm looking for a camera that's compatible with Synology's Surveillance Station.

Could you please advise on a possible hardware selection where I could accomplish multiple views? Mainly looking at Axis cameras, open to any other non-Chinese options.

My understanding is the most common application of PTZ is for the operator to follow an object in real time from a control room.

Our use case is to RECORD the overview and multiple high risk areas in greater detail (zoom).

Thank you for your advice.

Image taken with Mobotix i26 6MP wall mounted dome. We are trying to find a pole mounted camera for the center of the room that can record the overview while also recording each piece of machinery in red (fixed PTZ recording). Distance is only 20 feet - close range.

Axis offers telescopic ceiling mount, so looking for any advise on the best camera to choose. Synology Surveillance Station compatibility preferred.

Maybe, AXIS Q6000-E Mk II PTZ Network Camera suits your needs?
