Which type of camera can handle a coverage of 500meters? Also assist with the recording device to suit this equipment.

Whats 500 metres in feet/miles?

 

Its not the camera though, its how you transmit the signal.

500 meters is equivalent to about 0.3 miles or 0.5 Km

 

Could you please explain what you mean by "Its not the camera though, its how you transmit the signal."

 

Thanks

It's just under 550 feet rory.

 

I'm not absolutely sure, but I think their may be a slight difference in interpretation here.

 

Rory, I think your talking about how to transmit a signal over 500 metres, whereas,

 

Daranijo, I think you're talking about either viewing objects 500 metres from the camera, or perhaps covering 500 metres width on screen. Perhaps you could explain in a little more detail what it is you are trying to do, and then others can offer their suggestions. Thanks.

Ooops

 

Sorry guys, that should have been 550 yards. My brain still hasn't dried out from last weeks storms!

500 metres about 541yards.(1 metre = 39 inches)

 

Do you need to send the camera signal back this distance or need a camera to view this distance?

546.8 yards baywatch, but whats a few feet between friends

 

( 1 metre = 39.37 inches) I'm sure we've done this one before, not that long ago!

Yeah it should view the distance. Baywatch please could you confirm knowledge of the call i got from Biodun.

How wide a field of view do you require 500 metres away, the whole horizon, width of a road or path, or gateway or path ?

 

Please let us know what you want to observe & the light levels?
