Review:
Well written and informative, CCTV is intended for installers, sales personnel, security managers, consultants, and manufacturers. Damjanovski does an excellent job of explaining the technical issues that a novice would have trouble following, such as the pulses used in charge-coupled devices for transferring charges. -Security Management ...the book is well written and highly informative. Anyone seeking in-depth knowledge on CCTV will find it a worthwhile investment in terms of both time and money. -Security Management "Vlado Damjanovski was hoping his revised edition of CCTV would become the "CCTV bible" for people trying to understand and design a surveillance system. The depths to which the author goes to in his 12 subject areas ensures his authoritative 370-plus page book/manual achieves that and more. Damjanovski is renowned as an authority on CCTV and a recent talk he gave at the Rexel Dealer Conference in Adelaide in March had delegates baying for more. In-depth, authoritative, simple to understand, less-reliant on jargon means the reader needs only basic logic and technical understanding to find value in the information contained in CCTV. Damjanovski has attempted to encompass the theory and practice of all components and fundamentals of closed-circuit television involving various disciplines and products from electronics, telecommunications and optics to fibre optics, digital image processing and programming. Inspiration for the book, first published in 1995, came from people at several seminars who had told Damjanovski there was a dearth of such information. The book is littered with helpful hints, suggestions, check lists, tables, system designs and newly-tested video test chart. The book covers: transmission of images over telephone lines, fibre optics, video recorders and a brief history, digital storage of images, video processing equipment, understanding customer requirements, cameras, the basics of digital storage, and, the basics of television. Just a teaspoon of what's included in CCTV. CCTV allows the reader access to Damjanovski's vast experience and extensive and comprehensive research he has conducted in this growing segment of the electronic security market. The first edition was sold out and proof Damjanovski is on his way to achieving his eventual aim with CCTV. - Security Australia CCTV is worth the money for anyone involved in the CCTV industry, including designers, installers, sales staff, security managers, consultants, and manufacturers. - Security Insider

His Thesis in 1982 was on CCD Cameras, 10 years before they became commercially available. Vlado is an author, inventor, a lecturer and a CCTV expert, known to the Australian and international CCTV industry. A summary of the ever-evolving CCTV knowledge that Vlado possess first appeared in 1995 in his first published book - called simply "CCTV." This was one of the first truly complete reference manuals on the subject of CCTV. All subsequent editions, 1999, 2005, and the latest in 2013, have kept expanding with all the new and ever-evolving technology. The books cover all that a CCTV specialist needs to know. Many have referred to the book as "The CCTV Bible, so that even the official Russian translation of it carries such a title. In addition to writing books and conducting seminars, Vlado is involved in designing and commissioning CCTV systems, often pioneering new trends and technologies. One of the world first digital CCTV system designs was done by Vlado for the Star City Casino in 1997, where gaming disputes are sorted out immediately at the gaming tables. Then, in 2003, another new design was proposed for the Sands Casino in Macao - first in the world utilizing digital matrix switching of over 1,200 cameras and digital recorders. Vlado was the editor and publisher of the international magazine "CCTV focus, from 1999 till 2006. Vlado is currently the chairman of the CCTV Standards sub-committee of Australia and New Zealand, and he has contributed immensely in creating the latest Australian and New Zealand CCTV standards known as AS4806.1, AS4806.2 and AS4806.3. The CCTV test chart and the programmable test pattern generator are some of the original and unique products developed by Vlado and his company, and they are used in various measurement and quantifying CCTV system performance. Vlado is also known for his photographic works, albeit as an amateur. He has prepared a number of sole exhibitions in his native Macedonia as well as Australia, published his work in many magazines and books, and won numerous awards (www.damjanovski.com).
