CCTV Lens – S062212516F5

S062212516F5 is 6-22mm 5 Megapixel CCTV lens, 1/2.5″ manual zoom and focus lens, fixed aperture F1.6 M12/S-mount lens, Low distortion lens, IR corrected.

5MP 6-22mm M12 IR Corrected CCTV Lens

This 5MP 6-22mm M12 zoom CCTV lens is designed for compact camera systems requiring flexible focal-length adjustment, IR-corrected imaging, and a small M12×0.5 optical interface. With 58°–20° diagonal field of view, F1.6 aperture, manual focus and zoom, and 0.3m minimum object distance, it provides flexible imaging for compact CCTV, embedded vision, and selected industrial imaging applications.

M12 Zoom CCTV Lens Core Highlights

• 6–22mm manual zoom range provides adjustable framing for different object distances and scene sizes.
• M12×0.5 mount enables integration into compact camera modules and embedded imaging systems.
• 5MP optical performance supports detailed image capture for professional imaging applications.
• IR-corrected optical design helps maintain focus consistency when the imaging system operates across visible and near-infrared wavelengths.
• F1.6 fixed-aperture design provides a bright optical path while keeping the lens configuration mechanically simple.

M12 Zoom CCTV Lens Applications

Core Application Scenes

Compact CCTV Monitoring

The 6–22mm focal range provides substantially more framing flexibility than a fixed focal-length M12 lens. The 6mm position offers a wider scene view, while the 22mm position provides a narrower field of view for subjects farther from the camera.

Embedded Security Cameras

The compact M12×0.5 interface makes this lens suitable for embedded camera designs where optical size and mechanical integration are important. It can be used in compact security modules, access monitoring devices, and specialized camera assemblies.

Day/Night Imaging Systems

The IR-corrected optical design is particularly relevant to imaging systems that operate under both visible illumination and near-infrared illumination. Maintaining optical focus across different wavelengths can help reduce focus shifts when the illumination spectrum changes.

Industrial Inspection and Observation

For selected industrial observation applications where manual optical adjustment is acceptable, the 6–22mm range allows engineers to configure the lens according to the required working distance and image framing during system setup.

Longer-Range Compact Imaging

At the 22mm telephoto position, the lens provides a 12° vertical and 16° horizontal field of view, making it more suitable for narrower viewing requirements than typical short-focal-length M12 lenses.

Designed for compact IR-sensitive imaging applications, this M12 zoom lens combines a small mounting interface with manual focal-length adjustment and IR-corrected optical performance.

Compatible Device List

Optical Performance & Lens Selection

The 6–22mm focal-length range gives this lens a useful balance between wider-area coverage and narrower viewing. At 6mm, the lens provides a 46° horizontal field of view, while the 22mm setting narrows the horizontal FOV to 16°.

The specified distortion range is -0.5% to -15%, so the lens should not be positioned as a precision low-distortion optical solution. For applications where image geometry is important, engineers should evaluate the distortion requirement together with sensor size, working distance, and required field of view.

For detailed guidance, see TOWIN’s Lens Selection Guide and Distortion Guide.

The 6–22mm range can also be evaluated using the FOV Calculator when determining the required scene coverage at a specific working distance.

Why Choose an IR-Corrected M12 Zoom CCTV Lens?

A conventional lens may experience a focus shift when an imaging system changes from visible light to near-infrared illumination because different wavelengths are refracted differently by optical materials. An IR-corrected lens is designed to reduce this wavelength-related focus variation.

For cameras operating in day/night environments, this can simplify system-level focusing requirements and help maintain more consistent image sharpness across changing illumination conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What type of lens is this 6–22mm model?

A: It is a manual zoom M12 lens designed for compact imaging systems. Its main characteristics are a 6–22mm focal range, 5MP resolution, F1.6 aperture, M12×0.5 mount, and IR-corrected optical performance.

Q2: What is the field of view of this M12 zoom lens?

A: The diagonal field of view is 58°–20°, the horizontal field of view is 46°–16°, and the vertical field of view is 35°–12°, depending on the selected focal length.

Q3: Is this an M12 lens?

A: Yes. The lens uses an M12×0.5 mounting interface and is therefore suitable for M12-compatible camera modules.

Q4: Is this lens IR corrected?

A: Yes. The supplied specification explicitly identifies the lens as IR Corrected. This makes it suitable for imaging systems that need optical performance across visible and near-infrared wavelengths.

Q5: Is this a fisheye lens?

A: No. Its maximum specified diagonal field of view is 58°, and the optical specification does not indicate a fisheye design. It is better classified as a standard M12 zoom lens with a relatively wide 6mm setting.

Q6: Does this lens have a motorized zoom or focus mechanism?

A: No. Both zoom and focus are manual. This configuration is suitable for applications where the focal length and focus can be adjusted during installation or system setup rather than continuously controlled during operation.

Q7: What camera sensor is this lens designed for?

A: The lens is specified for a 1/2.5″ image format and supports 5-megapixel resolution.
