A mini-dome camera is one of the most effective surveillance tools for home or business security. This device is different from other surveillance cameras because of its size and appearance. Its miniature size allows you more options for hiding it from public view. This is especially critical if you wish to catch someone in the act. Its dome appearance, on the other hand, is very professional and unobtrusive, making it suitable for any office or store layout. Moreover, its dome casing protects its lens from vandalism and dust and other possible kinds of external damage.

Features of a Mini-Dome Camera
To better understand what a mini-dome camera is, you need to know more about what it can offer as a security tool.
Ceiling or Wall Mounted
These type of cameras are designed for ceiling or wall mounting. This basically means you can install them in places that people are unlikely to reach.
Tough and Durable Casing
These type of security cameras may look fragile, but rest assured they're anything but. Their casings are designed to withstand high-impact strikes. The domes are not only vandal and tamper resistant but puncture-proof as well.
Day / Night Camera
Just because it's small doesn't mean you'll have to make do with limited image-taking features. Not at all! A mini dome camera may also offer day / night resolution of up to 540 TVL. Not only that but it may also offer WDR or Wide Dynamic Range: simply put, you can be sure that all parts of the image are rendered in accurate and vivid color.
Progressive Scan
Perhaps you've heard about this feature when it comes to HD or LCD TV screens. If so, then that's how it works with mini dome cameras as well. With progressive scanning, these cameras continuously search for optimal conditions to take pictures.
Options for Lenses
A camera won't be able to effectively take pictures with only a single lens size. With mini dome cameras you could choose between 3 to 9.5 mm and 9 to 22 mm for varifocal lenses and 3.6, 6, 8, and 12 mm for fixed lenses.
