CCTV footage
Camera-captured video evidence
Video recordings from closed-circuit television cameras, typically used for security and surveillance.
CCTV footage captures activity in stores, parking lots, streets, and other monitored spaces.
It often becomes evidence in criminal investigations: Police reviewed CCTV footage from nearby businesses.
The term emphasizes the recorded material rather than the camera system itself.
