PTZ Cameras Or Camcorders – Which Is Better For You?


When it comes to houses of worship and the cameras they use to film or live-stream their sermons and other events, nearly all of them at one time used basic camcorders. Although these are excellent cameras, more and more of these organizations are switching to pan/tilt/zoom cameras instead. Known as PTZ cameras, they have a lot of the same advantages as camcorders but offer perks those cameras just don’t have. If you belong to a new church or synagogue and you’re looking into the perfect camera for your own needs, it’s good to know a little bit about both of these cameras so you can make the right decision in the end.

When you’re comparing PTZ cameras to camcorders, you should compare all of the features of each so that you can decide which one of those features is most important. Both PTZ cameras and camcorders are able to zoom into certain subjects on stages and other locations, but camcorders don’t always have usable controls that allow you to pan, tilt, or zoom remotely.
