Ideal Use Cases
Choosing Between the 2.8mm and 4mm Lens
The VIGI C445 is available in two fixed lens options—2.8mm and 4mm—allowing you to tailor the field of view to your application:
| Lens | Field of View | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.8mm | H: 100° × V: 54° | Wider coverage | Ideal for general monitoring areas like yards or shop floors |
| 4.0mm | H: 80.4° × V: 41.8° | More focused areas | Best for entrances, corridors or object-specific tracking |
Tip:
Choose 2.8mm when monitoring a wide zone close-up.
Choose 4mm when detail is needed at longer range.
