Camera recommendation for a wide area

[Jake1979]

The red circle is where the camera would be placed and the orange lines are where I'd like to monitor.

It is pretty wide and am thinking that a dual lens camera would be good, I don't want to buy 2 cameras if I can avoid it.

Would either of these be good at night? I don't see anything on IR

HI Jake,

If you are looking at the car parking areas to be covered by one 180 degree camera, I would mount it in the middle of the garage just above the middle garage door.

For your house, I would be looking at multiple cameras.

Certainly, you can start out with one for now.

Same camera, one is bullet format the other turret format.
They have no onboard IR and can’t see IR.

They have white LEDs

I have a camera at the red location, PTZ, so I'm not going to move locations or add an additional camera at this time due to finances. But, a dual lens camera could would in the spot.

That's what I was thinking. I'll have to find one that's similar with IR and close to that sensor size.

Distance from camera to the sidewalk leading to the door?

 

[Jake1979]

45 feet to the side walk and 70' to where the driveway narrows.
