Some outdoor security lights with cameras have two floodlights, covering up to a 270° area with a 140° camera field of view, and 70 feet spotting range.
However, as previously mentioned, the actual area you can view on your phone for live playback and motion detection is limited to the 140° camera field of view. A motion security light with a camera may not be the best option if you require a larger effective tracking area during the night. Several wide-angle security cameras with long-range night vision capabilities are available at affordable prices.
Note that while some security lights with PIR or sensors may use wide-angle exterior PIR motion sensors, such as 270° for example, activating only the light without triggering the camera in such instances means that footage is not recorded.
Alternatives: PTZ Security Cameras with Long Range Night Vision
PTZ security cameras, such as the 1NC-296, are equipped with a pan and tilt function, allowing for a 360° horizontal rotation and a 90° vertical rotation with a long-range night vision of 190ft, eliminating all blind spots.
If you’re considering a security light with a camera primarily due to its wide viewing area, consider exploring PTZ security cameras before making your decision.
