Hi Joe,
In a long ago life ('70s), I designed security systems like the one you
used at work, to be installed by the small company that I worked for.
This industrial-grade stuff had cameras mounted in WX-proof enclosures
mounted on PTZ units -- three separate products from three different
mfrs. Those cameras used vidicons. :) I suspect something similar is
done today at industrial level, and there may be products that integrate
all three functions. I would also expect there to be integrated consumer
products.

I would also be interested in anyone’s thoughts on a camera on top of the tower.
Many years ago I had a security job for a couple of weeks at the Colosseum here
in Denver. My shift a couple of times was using the security camera they had
outside on a tall pole.
This camera had a tremendous zoom and was used to keep a lookout on all the parking lots
around the Colosseum and we’ll see what the crowns were doing. You can actually zoom
into somebody’s car in the parking lot hundreds of feet away and see if they were
drinking a beer or smoking a joint.
