Finding the Best Surveillance Camera Lens — Any Tips?

Hello everyone,

I've been testing my surveillance system lately and discovered how crucial the surveillance camera lens is — far more so than I originally thought. A good lens can make a significant difference in image quality, especially in area coverage or low-light.

I came across this helpful Surveillance Camera Lens guide that breaks down focal length, field of view, and lens types in a really simple way. It helped me figure out the difference between fixed, varifocal, and wide-angle lenses — and which works better for indoor vs outdoor setups.

If anyone has recommendations for a lens that balances zoom with wide coverage, I’d really appreciate your input.

Thanks in advance!
