Normal 28mm cameras have FOV at 100-110 degree.. And You will find many under $100 from many brands...This is for internal home use not necessary to be able to identify faces or anything just to monitor kids
Must be able to get a wide FOV
Looking around $100 or less (Amcrest prices are best)
PoE is a must
Turrett is also a must.
I have both the Annke FCD600 and the Revotech cameras and both perform well. The Annke has IR but stays in color mode with very little light. At close range the stiching is off but does not bother me. They are frequently on sale for $79.99.This one however is within budget and similar design and would work fine indoors: FCD600 - Panoramic Outdoor PoE Dual Lens Security Camera, 6MP Resolution, 180° Ultra Wide Angle, f/1.2 Super Aperture, BSI Sensor, Color Night Vision & Infrared Night Vision, Built-in Mic, Active Siren & Alarm, Human & Vehicle Detection
Cams with a single sensor and fisheye lens for much wider FOV (typically 160-180°) are cheaper but their image is not as visually appealing due to the much more apparent warping effect. Amazon.com : fisheye poe camera revotech

I just so happen to have a used one I just put up for sale if you’d like one for well under $100The Dahua 5441 (BoobieCam) would be a decent option. Turrent mount with two individual lenses that can be oriented how you please.
I installed one in my front entrance. I didn't need full 180 degree coverage but it is possible.
BoobieCam Installation for Face Detection in Front Entrance
My front entrance provides a perfect pinch point to get video of everyone who enters and exists the property. The entrance from the street is via an iron gate (currently uncontrolled but I will be installing an electric lock to be controlled by a VTO2211G-WP in the near future). The distance...ipcamtalk.com
