Low Distortion Lens – S06212504942F

S06212504942F is Low distortion CCTV 5-Megapixel lens with Built-In IR Filter, 1/2.5″ M12x0.5 mount 60° diagonal FOV F4.2 for security surveillance.

6.2mm M12 Low Distortion Lens

This 6.2mm 5MP M12 low distortion lens is designed for compact imaging systems that require precise image geometry, a controlled field of view, and a space-efficient optical design. With distortion below 0.7%, it delivers highly controlled imaging for applications where excessive geometric deformation can affect visual analysis.

Featuring a 1/2.5″ image format, M12×0.5 mount, F4.2 fixed aperture, 0.1m minimum object distance, and a compact 12.4mm TTL, this fixed focal lens is well suited to embedded camera modules, smart monitoring equipment, compact inspection systems, and other space-constrained vision devices.

6.2mm M12 Low Distortion Lens Applications

Core Application Scenes

This 6.2mm M12 low distortion lens is designed for compact vision systems where maintaining image geometry is more important than achieving an extremely wide viewing angle. With a 49.5° horizontal FOV and distortion below 0.7%, the lens provides a balanced view of the target area while keeping geometric deformation tightly controlled.

The lens is particularly suitable for compact inspection modules, smart access cameras, embedded visual sensing devices, equipment monitoring cameras, and fixed-position AI vision systems. Its low distortion performance can help preserve the relative shape and position of objects, making captured images more suitable for downstream image analysis and computer vision tasks.

One of the key advantages of this model is its 12.4mm TTL. The short optical length allows the lens to be integrated into camera assemblies where internal space is limited. Combined with the M12×0.5 mount, this makes the lens a practical option for miniature camera housings, embedded devices, and customized OEM camera modules.

The 0.1m minimum object distance also supports relatively close-range imaging. This allows the lens to be positioned near equipment, access points, control interfaces, or inspection targets without requiring a large installation distance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What type of lens is this 6.2mm M12 lens?
A: It is a fixed focal, low distortion M12 lens designed for 1/2.5″ sensors and 5MP imaging. Its distortion is specified below 0.7%.

Q: Is this 6.2mm M12 lens a wide-angle lens?
A: It provides a 60° diagonal FOV and 49.5° horizontal FOV. This gives the lens a moderate field of view rather than the very broad coverage normally associated with dedicated wide-angle optics.

Q: What sensor format does this lens support?
A: The specified image format is 1/2.5″, with a 5MP resolution rating.

Q: What is the field of view of this 6.2mm lens?
A: The diagonal FOV is 60°, the horizontal FOV is 49.5°, and the vertical FOV is 38°.

Q: What is the advantage of less than 0.7% distortion?
A: Distortion below 0.7% provides highly controlled image geometry. This can be valuable for applications where object shape and spatial relationships need to remain consistent in the captured image.

Q: What does the IRCF specification mean?
A: IRCF indicates that the optical configuration includes an IR-cut filter. This should not be confused with an IR-corrected lens, which is specifically designed to maintain focus across visible and near-infrared wavelengths.

Q: What is the minimum object distance of this M12 lens?
A: The minimum object distance is 0.1m, allowing the lens to capture relatively close subjects when correctly integrated and focused within the camera system.

Q: Why is the 12.4mm TTL important for compact camera designs?
A: A short 12.4mm total track length can help reduce the optical space required inside a camera housing. This is particularly useful for miniature embedded cameras and space-constrained OEM designs.
