Wide Angle (general coverage)  Security Cameras are usually used to capture the widest possible area in a single frame.  Wide angle cameras are typically used to monitor offices, warehouses, convenience stores, and residences.   Generally situations where these cameras are most effective are when the party/parties being monitored cross the security camera at close proximity.  

​

Ideal Usage Scenarios: 

Wide areas that need the widest-angle coverage possible such as:

Residences 

Offices 

Convenience Stores

Warehouses 

Parking lots

Highlights: While these high definition security cameras can cover the widest angles (90-180 degrees) and are  pretty effective at close range, they are not the best option for face-level identification at medium to long distances.

​

• Motion Sensor

• Wide-angle HD Lens

• Night Vision

• True Wide Dynamic Range

• Audio 

• WiFi

Question:  This seems like the best security camera to buy being that it covers the widest possible angle.  Why doesn't everyone just buy wide angle surveillance cameras instead of anything else?  

​

Answer:  While all of our products are high definition and the picture quality is spectacular at first glance, general area cameras can capture a license plate or facial detail from 50' away. A very good way to determine if wide angle security cameras are the right choice for you is by standing near the location (and height) at which you wish to mount the surveillance camera.  Just as you can't see your neighbors facial details across the yard, general coverage wide-angle security cameras also can't see facial detail from that distance.  Also take into account that while these cameras have some of the clearest possible night-vision available today, general physics says light bounces and reflects bright colors and reflective surfaces (such as license plates in the dark).   That's where you would consider specialty security cameras that compensate for more demanding conditions.  The good news is that you can mix and match general wide-angle surveillance cameras with other special-application security cameras such as LPR License Plate Recognition Security Cameras or PTZ Surveillance Cameras.
