Abstract
A surveillance camera comprises a base mounted on a wall, an imaging lens mounted on the base via an imaging lens support member and a switchable mounting unit, and a rotation drive device driving the imaging lens so as to rotate in a panning direction. The switchable mounting unit selects either a first posture wherein a seating mount of the base, making contact with the wall, is approximately perpendicular to an axis of panning rotation of the imaging lens or a second posture wherein the seating mount is approximately parallel to the axis of panning rotation, and mounts the imaging lens support member on the base.
