Which Camera to use?

[Doug (Doug Fisher)]

This is a common question for a very commonly used laser. This thread is a good read with excellent example pictures toward the end of the thread:

Camera distance

For the red/black, the 140 seems like a good choice for lid mount. It’s got enough extra room to allow some flexibility. For the red/black 700mm x 500mm, here are the images from 3 different cameras mounted in the lid: 160 degree: [View-160] . 140 degree: [View-140] . and 120 degree (note this is fuzzy because I didn’t take the sticker off the lens): [View-120] . The 120 cuts it pretty close, while the 160 captures too much extra around the bed.
