How high should you mount your security cameras?

In this episode of In the Trenches Roundtable, we'll focus on how high you should mount your security cameras.

There's pros and cons to each option and a lot to consider, such as how people approach, the lens of the camera, and what amount of physical vandalism danger your cameras have.

Sometime you're just restricted by the building and the area you want to have under surveillance, e.g. at the front door where the roof comes down low and takes all the wall space away so you're left with only about door height plus a little bit.

I get the whole angle argument but what about a higher powered camera with a 16x zoom? Im looking to mount this 35' high on a pole on my land.

While reviewing a multitude of recommendations of ideal position height of security cameras, all that I have read suggested that the perfect height is between 8' to 10'. Can you please elaborate on this? Thanks.

Why mount high? 2nd, 3rd, etc. floors.
