Abstract: A multi-point surveillance camera system uses a combination of an image recognition unit a zoom camera equipped with a pan/tilt driver unit for changing a camera monitor position, to monitor a plurality of monitor positions. The monitor position is changed by using the pan/tilt unit, and an image recognition unit starts an image recognition process to reliably detect an abnormal entrance at the plurality of monitor positions, after a focus position adjustment by preset information (after completion of commanding to change the monitor position to a preset position or stop at the preset position), after an automatic focusing operation, or after a combination of the focus position adjustment by the preset information and the automatic focusing operation.
