📝 Wide Angle Lens Cameras – Maximise Coverage, Minimise Blind Spots

wide angle lens lets your security camera capture more of the scene—making it ideal for monitoring entire rooms, driveways, yards, or open-plan offices with a single device. With lens angles typically ranging from 90° to 160°, wide-angle cameras help you see more with fewer cameras, saving you time, cost, and complexity, but they come at a risk of not being evidence grade.

  • 🎥 CCTV Cameras around 96° field of view

  • 📦 Compact IP and Wi-Fi cameras for room coverage

✅ Benefits of Wide Angle Lenses

  • 🧭 Capture more area with fewer cameras

  • 🚪 Cover entryways, hallways, or rooms edge-to-edge

  • 🔍 Ideal for small businesses, home interiors, and retail spaces

  • 💡 Great for overview footage in investigations


⚠️ Things to Keep in Mind

  • 🎯 Once lenses exceed ~100°, curvature and distortion (fish-eye effect) become noticeableand distorts the shape of the face

  • 🕵️ In ultra-wide lenses (e.g. 140°+), fine details may be lost, making footage less suitable for identifying faces or licence plates

  • 🧠 For evidence-grade clarity, consider narrower lenses in high-risk zones under 100°
