Choosing the right CCTV camera is important—but choosing the right lens is what truly determines coverage, clarity, and security effectiveness. Whether you’re installing CCTV for a home, office, school, warehouse, retail store, or smart classroom, the lens decides how much area you see, how clear the image is, and how well threats are detected. At GoLive eTechnologies India Private Limited, we help customers across Delhi NCR and pan-India select professional surveillance solutions—from Evota PTZ cameras to Logitech PTZ Pro 2—with the correct lens configuration for real-world use cases.
