> 24 hourThis is the lens that Infant Optics should include with the baby monitor from the factory. The viewing angle is much better/wider than the zoom lens or when using just the “hood“ lens. Additionally, infrared night vision is not impaired (at least not for our unit that was purchased around 06/2019).

> 24 hourPictures: I included two pictures of the wide angle lens with it showing the whole room and the zoom in. And one picture(the clearer one) of the normal lens without the wide angle lens. Since my daughter got a toddler bed I needed to see the whole room. Well, it works perfect during the day and is bright and vibrant, but when I used it at night, it looks very foggy and not so clear. It’s definitely doable though if you absolutely want to see the whole room but I think I might switch back to the normal lens and just pan around the room if I need to find my daughter.

> 24 hourBought another camera initially when I had my son. Lasted me for 5 months. Searched all over for a good camera that would see everything with a large screen and would help me sleep better at night knowing that it was working. Well I found it! This camera is amazing! I bought the additional wide angle lens and can not speak more highly of it! The picture is clear and the sound is amazing! I also love the fact that the screen turns off after a certain time so that at night it isnt blinding me while I get my rest! Thank you again for such an amazing product! Only negative is I wish I could afford a second camera!!!!

> 24 hourI purchased the wide angle lens because I had to install the camera at the very top of my wall at the ceiling in order to get the whole crib in the picture. I was worried about the night vision due to other reviews, but the manufacturer stated that issue was fixed. It definitely is fixed because I do not see a different between the regular lens or night vision lens. Pros: - I could install the camera lower and get the whole crib and additional parts of the room - By installing it lower I could accurately use the temperature feature of the camera - Night vision and regular vision works great - Did not affect the quality of the picture at all Cons: - The night vision does have a hot spot but this is more of a camera con rather than because of the actual lens. I had this same hot spot using the regular lens as well. Overall it works great and I absolutely needed this wide angle lens for this camera in order to use it the way that I wanted to.

> 24 hourThere is a glare on the night vision that isn’t there with the regular lens. It doesn’t change what you can see too much, but it’s annoying.

> 24 hourBaby’s room has low ceilings so that the camera couldn’t get far enough from the crib to fully show on the monitor. This wide angle lens made all the difference. Perfect for our situation!

> 24 hourThis was really helpful when pur son started using a bed, but its almost useless at night. Switched back to the regular lens

> 24 hourThis fish eye allowed us to see our whole sons room when playing instead of having to move the camera around to see what was going on. Absolutely worth getting!

> 24 hourThis lens works great when you are switching from the crib to a toddler bed. It gives a great view of the entire room.

> 24 hourWe love our infant optics baby monitor and this lense is perfect for getting the wide angle view. I had struggled for months monitoring the kids in their play room before I realized this lense was available for sale. After installing this lense, which took less than a minute, I could see their entire playroom and what the kids were doing when I couldnt be in the room with them. Worth the money for sure.
