Wide Angle Lens – S02114009126F

S02114009126F is 2.1mm High-end Wide Angle Lens with Built-In Filter, F2.6 M12/S-mount Wide-angle lens, 5-Megapixel High-resolution CCTV Lens.

2.1mm M12 5MP Wide Angle Lens for Compact Camera Modules

This 2.1mm M12 5MP wide angle lens is designed for compact imaging systems that require a broad field of view without sacrificing the higher resolution available from a 5MP sensor. When used with the OV5640 sensor, it provides a 110° diagonal, 91° horizontal, and 71° vertical field of view. With an F2.6 fixed aperture, manual focus, 0.2m minimum object distance, and 2G2P+IRCF optical structure, the lens is well suited to embedded cameras, compact security devices, automotive auxiliary vision, and space-constrained machine vision equipment.

Its 2.1mm focal length offers significantly wider coverage than conventional standard-angle lenses while maintaining a practical optical configuration for 5MP imaging. Engineers can use TOWIN’s Lens Selection Guide to evaluate focal length, sensor format, field of view, and other optical parameters when selecting a lens for a specific camera system.

M12 5MP Wide Angle Lens Core Product Highlights

• 5MP imaging capability: Designed for compact camera systems requiring higher image resolution than conventional VGA-class wide-angle modules.
• 110° diagonal FOV: The 2.1mm focal length provides broad scene coverage while offering a more moderate viewing angle than extremely short focal length designs.
• OV5640 compatibility: The specified FOV is based on the 1/4-inch OV5640 sensor configuration, providing a practical reference for camera-module integration.
• Compact M12 x 0.5 interface: The standardized M12 mount supports integration into small camera housings and embedded optical assemblies.
• 2G2P + IRCF optical structure: The compact optical construction incorporates an infrared-cut filter for visible-light camera applications.

M12 5MP Wide Angle Lens Applications

Core Application Scenes

The 2.1mm focal length is particularly useful when a camera needs to capture a relatively broad area while retaining 5MP imaging capability. Compared with more extreme ultra-wide-angle configurations, its 110° diagonal FOV provides a practical balance between scene coverage and optical geometry.

• Embedded vision cameras: Suitable for compact camera modules used in smart devices, access equipment, monitoring terminals, and other space-limited systems.
• Compact CCTV systems: The 110° diagonal FOV allows a broader monitoring area from a short installation distance, making the lens suitable for indoor security and localized surveillance.
• Automotive auxiliary vision: The wide viewing angle can be used for compact vehicle-mounted cameras and auxiliary observation systems where broad nearby-area coverage is required.
• Machine vision: Suitable for inspection or observation systems where a wider field of view is required and 5MP image resolution is beneficial for identifying object details.
• Robotic and smart-device imaging: The compact M12 interface makes the lens suitable for embedded imaging modules installed on robotic platforms and other space-constrained equipment.

Designed for compact 5MP wide-angle imaging applications, this lens provides a practical combination of resolution, field of view, and mechanical integration for small camera systems.

Optical Selection Considerations

When selecting this lens, the camera sensor and required field of view should be considered together. The specified 110° diagonal, 91° horizontal, and 71° vertical FOV applies to the OV5640 configuration. Using a different sensor can change the effective field of view, so the actual camera-lens combination should be verified before production.

The lens has a specified TV distortion of less than -8%. This provides a defined wide-angle optical profile, but it should not automatically be treated as a low-distortion measurement lens. For machine vision applications involving dimensional measurement or geometric inspection, distortion tolerance should be evaluated alongside the required accuracy. TOWIN’s Distortion Guide provides additional information about lens distortion and its effect on imaging.

For preliminary system design, the FOV Calculator can help estimate the relationship between focal length, sensor size, and viewing area. The Sensor Guide can also be used when checking lens and sensor compatibility.
