When building a security system for your property, understanding focal lengths, varifocal vs. manual iris, and what lens is best for a specific area can be a daunting task. To better help our customers understand the lens they will need to suit their application, we have created the Lens Comparison Tool over at the ApexCCTV website.
The outside field of view shows you what to expect from different lens focal lengths on the same license plate 150′ away and the inside field of view shows you the same lenses on a sign that is 25′ away. If you’re interested in employing box security cameras, this tool is invaluable in determining what focal length you will need.
If you have more questions about lenses, give one of our qualified security professionals a call @ 1-800-997-8460

The lens comparison tool is awesome. It really helps customers understand the difference between fixed and varifocal. Also “field of view” is important when trying to determine the lens size and that tool helps with that also.
The zoom contacts evaluation device is amazing. It really allows customers understand the difference between set and varifocal. Also “field of view” is important when trying to determine the zoom contacts size and that device allows with that also.
Nice tool,now we can check and compare the lens of our security cctv camera which is really a good thing.
