Why IR-Cut Lenses Are Essential in Professional Camera Systems

IR-cut lenses play a crucial role in delivering accurate, high-quality images in professional surveillance and monitoring systems. These lenses use an infrared-cut filter to block unwanted infrared light during daylight, ensuring true-to-life colour reproduction and sharp detail. At night, the filter is automatically removed to allow maximum infrared light for clear night vision performance.

By balancing day and night image quality, IR-cut lenses are essential for reliable, 24/7 monitoring—making them a key component in any high-performance CCTV, wildlife, or remote monitoring camera system.
