The present invention relates to a camera, comprising: a base; a cylindrical hollow main body mounted to the base; an electric motor supported on a support, with an external gear being mounted on an output shaft of the electric motor; a camera head assembly, comprising a cylindrical housing, a lens module, and a motherboard for controlling the electric motor and the lens module; and an internal gear meshed with the external gear. One of the support and the internal gear is mounted in a fixed manner to the base or in the hollow main body, and the other one is mounted in a fixed manner to the camera head assembly. An annular groove and at least one helical groove extending upward from the annular groove are formed on an outer wall of a lower-half part of the cylindrical housing, a corresponding circular guiding protrusion is disposed on an inner wall of the hollow main body, and each circular guiding protrusion is capable of being received in the annular groove or in the helical groove, such that up/down movement and horizontal rotation of the camera head assembly is driven by the single electric motor. According to the present invention, control of the camera is simplified, and the size and cost thereof are reduced.
