Coming with detachable lenses, C-mount cameras allow for simple lense changes to fit different applications. C-mount cameras, where standard CCTV lenses can only cover distances of 35-40ft, can cover distances beyond 40ft thanks to the possibility to use special lenses with these cameras.

Other benefits of C-mount cameras include:

• Can support changes in technology
• Effective for indoor use
• Bulky size makes them noticeable (which acts as a deterrant)
