Those of you with 25mm, 50mm, or larger mm cameras, need reccomendations

Do any of you have 25mm-above, or even 100mm above cameras set up? (Hiks) Im assuming ill need an aftermarket lens to do this. Trying to get "the long shot" down the driveway. Just curious to all of you "pushing the limits " of your cameras, if you could provide screen shots? Or reccomendations for a good cam to go the distance!

I would be interested in a good source to buy lens from that would fit the Hikvision series II (2) cameras.

I wondered if you could get some sort of lens doubler to put between the existing lens and sensor. That would then turn a 12mm lens into a 24mm.

Most telephoto lenes will come with c or cs mount adapters if your after that real long shot your best off with a box camera not a series 2, with a traditional housing due to lens length, but remember quality lens cost money.

Have a look here at a 25mm lens for a 2132 camera that networkcameracritic reviewed. Be aware that you will need to open up the camera and replace the lens.
