Surveillance camera lenses can be divided into: PTZ type (PTZ type integrated camera) Nowadays, only heavy-duty gimbal is available. Ordinary gimbal machines have been replaced by ball machines with built-in guns, telephoto lenses, and infrared or laser lamps. They are mainly used in remote monitoring systems such as forest fire monitoring, sea level, and water conservancy, with a high degree of professionalism. Gun type (gun type camera) The gun type is similar to the SLR camera body, which can be matched with the lens according to the needs, so the function is flexible, can be matched with different lenses, can be equipped with infrared lights, fill lights, radar capture and other functions, generally with IO expansion interface, mainly used in road monitoring and other high-demand scenes for cameras, but also the main components used in the PTZ interior, with a high degree of professionalism. Ball model (ball camera) Dome cameras can generally rotate 360 degrees horizontally and 90 degrees vertically, and are suitable for all-round monitoring of a certain point. Generally, larger 6 or 7-inch ball machines are suitable for use in large scenarios, such as factories, agriculture, water conservancy and other engineering environments. 3, 4, 5-inch small ball machines, mini and compact, suitable for shopping and home use. Barrel model Integrated infrared light, good integration effect, used in ordinary outdoor monitoring, better waterproof, relatively cost-effective. Recommended for outdoor monitoring in factories, buildings, residences and other environments. hemispherical Generally integrated infrared lamp, audio and other functions, suitable for indoor, beautiful and compact appearance, recommended in shops, indoor and other environments. Mini Suitable for home use, integrated infrared lamp, audio and other functions, beautiful and compact appearance, recommended for home use, many participating companies, a wide range of options.   Surveillance camera lenses are divided according to imaging color: Color camera: suitable for identifying the details of the scene, such as identifying the color of clothing or scenery. The amount of information increases due to color, and the amount of information is generally considered to be 10 times that of a black and white camera. Black and white cameras: suitable for low-light areas and areas where lighting equipment cannot be installed at night. When only monitoring the location or movement of the scene, a black and white camera with a higher resolution than a color camera can be selected. Surveillance camera lenses are divided according to camera sensitivity:  Ordinary type: The illumination required for normal operation is 1 to 3 lux.  Moonlight type: The illumination required for normal operation is about 0.1 LUX Starlight type: The illuminance required for normal operation is 0.01 LUX or less Infrared illumination type: In principle, it can be zero-illumination, using infrared light sources for imaging.

  • How Do I Choose the Right Lens for My Security Camera?
    How Do I Choose the Right Lens for My Security Camera? Apr 11, 2025
    Have you ever wondered why some security cameras deliver crystal-clear footage day and night, while others struggle with blurry images or missed details? The answer often lies in one critical component: the lens. A poorly chosen lens can undermine even the most advanced camera system, leaving vulnerabilities in your surveillance setup. Whether you’re monitoring a bustling retail store, a dimly lit warehouse, or a quiet residential driveway, selecting the right lens ensures sharp imaging, accurate coverage, and reliable performance—no matter the conditions. In this guide, we’ll simplify the technical jargon and break down the five essential factors you need to consider when choosing a lens for your security camera. From focal length to environmental durability, you’ll learn how to match your unique surveillance needs with the right optical solution—so you can stop guessing and start securing with confidence. 1. Determine the Focal Length Based on Surveillance NeedsThe focal length of a lens defines its field of view (FOV) and detail-capturing capabilities. For wide-area coverage, such as parking lots or warehouses, a fixed wide-angle lens (e.g., 2.8mm or 3.6mm) offers expansive visibility with minimal blind spots. Conversely, narrow spaces like entry points benefit from fixed mid-range lenses (e.g., 6mm or 8mm), which focus on critical details like facial features or license plates. At Wintop Optics, our precision-engineered fixed lenses are tailored to deliver consistent performance, eliminating the complexity of adjustable systems while ensuring reliability. 2. Prioritize Aperture for Low-Light PerformanceA lens’s aperture (measured as f-stop) determines its ability to gather light. In low-light environments like alleys or indoor settings, a larger aperture (e.g., f/1.2) reduces motion blur and noise by maximizing light intake. Wintop Optics’ low-light optimized lenses feature advanced multi-layer coatings and high-transmission glass elements, enabling crisp imaging even in near darkness. This makes them ideal for 24/7 surveillance scenarios where lighting conditions fluctuate. 3. Ensure Compatibility with Your Camera’s SensorMismatched lenses and sensors can lead to vignetting, distortion, or soft edges. Always verify your camera’s sensor size (e.g., 1/2.8" or 1/3") before selecting a lens. Wintop Optics’ sensor-specific lenses undergo rigorous compatibility testing to ensure seamless integration with leading sensor brands, delivering edge-to-edge clarity and eliminating wasted pixels. 4. Opt for Durability in Harsh EnvironmentsOutdoor lenses face rain, dust, and temperature extremes. Compromising on durability can result in fogged glass or corroded mounts within months. Wintop Optics’ weatherproof lenses are engineered with IP67-rated housings, hydrophobic coatings, and UV-resistant materials to withstand harsh conditions. Pair these with IR-cut filter lenses for accurate color reproduction during day-night transitions, even in humid or coastal environments. 5. Balance Cost with Long-Term ValueWhile budget-friendly options may seem appealing, frequent replacements due to poor performance often offset initial savings. Wintop Optics’ cost-effective fixed lenses are built for longevity, offering military-grade durability and stable performance in high-traffic or sensitive environments. Our solutions are trusted by integrators worldwide for their consistent reliability and minimal maintenance needs. Final ThoughtsA security system is only as strong as its weakest component—and the lens is its eye. At Wintop Optics, we combine decades of optical engineering expertise with real-world surveillance insights to craft lenses that outperform industry standards. From wide-angle to low-light optimized designs, our solutions are built to endure, adapt, and excel in any scenario. Don’t settle for guesswork.
