Wide Angle Lens – CCL1402124MPF

CCL1402124MPF is 1/4″ 2.1mm High-Resolution wide angle lens with Built-In Filter, F2.4 aperture M12/S-mount lens, 145° 2-Megapixel CCTV lens.

2.1mm M12 145° Ultra Wide Angle Lens

This 2.1mm M12 Wide Angle Lens is a compact 2MP Wide Angle Lens designed around the OV9282 sensor. It provides a 145° diagonal, 114° horizontal, and 68° vertical field of view, making it suitable for imaging systems that require broad scene coverage from a short working distance. With F2.4 aperture, 0.1m M.O.D., 14mm T.T.L., and M12 mounting, the lens is well suited to compact industrial vision and embedded imaging systems.

M12 Wide Angle Lens Core Product Highlights

• 145° diagonal field of view provides broad scene coverage for compact imaging equipment.
• 2.1mm ultra-short focal length helps capture a large area from a relatively close installation position.
• 2MP resolution is suitable for applications using compact 1/4″ imaging sensors such as OV9282.
• M12 mount and 14mm T.T.L. support space-constrained camera and embedded vision designs.
• 0.1m M.O.D. enables close-range wide-area imaging where the camera must operate near the target.

M12 Wide Angle Lens Applications

Core Application Scenes

The combination of a 2.1mm focal length and 145° diagonal FOV makes this lens particularly suitable for applications where coverage is more important than rectilinear image geometry. The <-41% distortion is characteristic of an Wide Angle optical design and should be considered when the application requires geometric measurement or image correction.

Typical applications include:

• Compact machine vision systems requiring a large viewing area
• Embedded industrial cameras
• Close-range object monitoring
• Wide-area inspection systems
• Robotics and compact vision modules
• Indoor monitoring and spatial awareness systems
• Sensor modules requiring broad scene coverage
• Compact imaging devices using the OV9282 sensor

Designed for wide-angle embedded vision applications where a compact M12 lens and broad field of view are required.

Compatible Devices

This lens can be considered for compact devices built around a 1/4″ sensor and OV9282 imaging platform, particularly where the available installation space is limited.

Potential device configurations include:

• 1/4″ OV9282 camera modules
• Embedded vision cameras
• Compact industrial cameras
• Robotic vision modules
• Close-range inspection cameras
• Wide-angle sensing and monitoring modules

Before selecting the lens, the sensor format, required field of view, mounting space, working distance, and acceptable distortion should be evaluated together. TOWIN’s Sensor Guide can help with sensor-to-lens matching, while the FOV Calculator can be used to evaluate field-of-view requirements.

Optical Design Considerations

The 145° diagonal FOV is one of the key characteristics of this 2.1mm lens. Compared with conventional fixed focal lenses, its ultra-wide optical design allows substantially more of the surrounding scene to be captured within a compact camera system.

However, the specification of < -41% distortion means this lens should not be treated as a low-distortion lens. Applications involving dimensional measurement, precision positioning, or strict geometric accuracy may require distortion correction or a different optical design.

For more information about how distortion influences industrial imaging, see TOWIN’s Distortion Guide. If the system requires detailed optical optimization, the Optical Design section provides additional guidance.

Why Choose This Lens for Compact Vision Systems?

The short 2.1mm focal length, 145° diagonal FOV, 0.1m M.O.D., and 14mm T.T.L. make this lens particularly useful when both wide scene coverage and compact mechanical integration are required.

The fixed F2.4 aperture simplifies the optical configuration, while the fixed M12 mounting interface makes the lens suitable for compact camera module integration. Its 3.44mm B.F.L. also provides a defined optical back focal length for mechanical and sensor integration.

For engineers comparing different focal lengths, the Lens Selection Guide can help evaluate focal length, sensor size, FOV, working distance, and optical requirements together.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What sensor is this 2.1mm M12 lens designed for?
A: The specified field of view is provided for the OV9282 sensor, with a 1/4″ image format and 2MP resolution.

Q: What is the field of view of this M12 lens?
A: With the OV9282 sensor, the lens provides 145° diagonal, 114° horizontal, and 68° vertical field of view.

Q: Is this a low-distortion M12 lens?
