The camera should be mounted on a sturdy and stable surface using a mounting bracket or tripod to ensure proper positioning and stability. It is important to ensure that the camera is securely attached to the mounting device to prevent any movements or vibrations that could affect the quality of the footage. Additionally, the camera should be positioned at the desired angle and height to capture the desired field of view. It is recommended to use a level to ensure the camera is mounted straight and parallel to the ground. Regularly check the mounting to ensure it remains secure and stable over time.
