Abstract
Provided are embodiments of a surveillance camera. The surveillance camera includes an optical sensor and an actuation drive which is configured to adjust a viewing field of the optical sensor in such a manner that the viewing field can be adjusted respectively at least into a surveillance range and an inactive range. The inactive range is at least partially spatially disjoint from the surveillance range. Security from external surveillance is ensured in that the actuation drive adjusts the viewing field in accordance with an external actuation signal between the surveillance range and the inactive range.
