Poe Security Camera Lens 5MP-2.8/3.6/6/8/12mm lens

Lens Focal Length Options:

1. 2.8mm Lens (Ultra Wide-Angle):

   • Approx. HFOV: 100°-110° (on 1/2.7″ sensor)

   • Field of View: Exceptionally wide panoramic coverage.

   • Ideal For: Monitoring large open areas like warehouses, parking lots, storefronts, or wide hallways where maximum area visibility is critical, but fine detail at distance is less important.

2. 3.6mm Lens (Wide-Angle):

   • Approx. HFOV: 80°-90° (on 1/3″ sensor)

   • Field of View: Broad coverage for general surveillance.

   • Ideal For: Medium-sized rooms, backyards, retail shop floors, reception areas, or corridors where a balance between coverage area and object size is needed.

3. 6mm Lens (Medium-Angle / Standard):

   • Approx. HFOV: 50°-55° (on 1/3″ sensor)

   • Field of View: Balanced view for focused coverage.

   • Ideal For: Pinpointing specific zones like driveways, gates, smaller yards, longer hallways, or cash registers where better detail recognition at moderate distances is required.

4. 8mm Lens (Narrow-Angle / Telephoto):

   • Approx. HFOV: 35°-40° (on 1/3″ sensor)

   • Field of View: Focused view for identifying distant objects.

   • Ideal For: Monitoring entry points (doors, gates), observing specific assets or activity at greater distances (e.g., across a street or parking aisle), or applications needing enhanced detail over a smaller zone.

5. 12mm Lens (Super Narrow-Angle / Telephoto):

   • Approx. HFOV: 25°-30° (on 1/3″ sensor)

   • Field of View: Highly focused, magnified view for long-range identification.

   • Ideal For: Critical applications requiring detailed identification at significant distances, such as License Plate Recognition (LPR), observing faces or specific features far away, or monitoring very specific, distant points of interest.
