Abstract: The surveillance camera has a filming device placed in a package with a hollow support frame constituted by a back and at least one cardan fork arm on which there rests a hollow, preferably spherical, shell. The filming device is placed in the shell, the connection wires passing from the shell into the support frame through at least one hinging means providing for the mobility of the shell about an axis U that passes through its center and is perpendicular to the cardan fork arm and the support frame being itself movable about an axis V perpendicular to the cardan fork arm. Application to the surveillance of private or public premises.
