As a experiment i put a 8 mm megapixel lens on the 0806 to see how far off licence plates are readable.
I have no exact specs on the lens other then what is above, got the lens off a 1080p IP camera so i assume its a 3Mpix lens.
Here is first some pics so you can see how narrow the FOV is compared to my lukas LK 7500.
First pic is grapped off the footage from the lukas. ( please note this is right after a FW update on the lukas so it run at a lesser bitrate )
Same spot with the modified 0806.
Back to the lukas.
And same spot with the modified 0806.
The 2 videos to compare.
Lukas.
Modified 0806.
In all i dont think the FOV is too narrow, looking at the little screen on the 0806 it seem like the oncomming cars is 3 M in front of my front bumper when they pass out of view.
And there is no doubt its possible to read plates at a distance where they are just a blur on the wide lukas lens.
I am allso sure this 8 mm lens is not of the highest grade, i really wish i had a lot of good lenses to experiment with, but sadly that seem to be expensive to get a bunch as prizes are around 60 dollars and up![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
