Wide Angle Lens – S01512914124F69R

S01512914124F69R is Ultra-wide-angle CCTV lens with Built-In IR Filter, 1/2.9″ 2-Megapixel IP69K M12/S-Mount Waterproof Automotive Lens F2.4 for security Surveillance.

1.5mm M12 Wide Angle Automotive Lens

This 1.5mm M12 wide angle automotive lens is designed for compact vehicle camera systems that require broad scene coverage in demanding outdoor environments. With a 154° diagonal field of view, F2.4 aperture, IP69K protection, and an extended -40°C to +85°C working temperature range, it is suitable for automotive imaging modules operating in harsh road and weather conditions.

M12 Wide Angle Automotive Lens Core Highlights

• 154° ultra-wide diagonal FOV captures a broad area from a compact camera position.
• 1.5mm focal length is optimized for space-constrained automotive camera modules.
• IP69K protection supports operation in environments exposed to water, dust, and high-pressure cleaning.
• -40°C to +85°C working temperature enables reliable use across demanding automotive temperature conditions.
• 0.1m M.O.D. supports close-range imaging where nearby objects need to remain within the usable imaging area.

M12 Wide Angle Lens Applications

Core Application Scenes

This 1.5mm M12 wide angle automotive lens is designed for vehicle-mounted camera systems where broad near-field visibility is required from a compact optical assembly. Its 154° diagonal field of view allows the camera to capture a large surrounding area while the short 1.5mm focal length helps maintain wide coverage in confined installation positions.

The lens is particularly suitable for front, rear, side, and close-range vehicle camera modules where the camera must observe nearby obstacles, road edges, vehicle surroundings, or maneuvering areas. The 0.1m minimum object distance is useful for applications in which objects can appear very close to the camera.

Unlike a general indoor wide-angle CCTV lens, this model is designed around the environmental requirements of vehicle-mounted equipment. Its IP69K rating provides protection for demanding outdoor environments, while the -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range supports applications exposed to freezing conditions, summer heat, engine-bay-adjacent environments, or rapid temperature changes.

The lens can therefore be integrated into compact automotive camera assemblies used for vehicle awareness and close-range monitoring. For broader vehicle perception architectures, it can also be evaluated as an optical component within ADAS solutions where wide-angle image acquisition is required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What type of lens is this 1.5mm M12 lens?
A: It is a wide angle automotive lens with an M12x0.5 mount and 1.5mm focal length, designed for compact vehicle-mounted camera systems.

Q: What is the field of view of this automotive lens?
A: The lens provides a 154° diagonal FOV, 141° horizontal FOV, and 96° vertical FOV when used with the specified OV2718 configuration.

Q: What sensor is this lens designed for?
A: The supplied specification identifies the OV2718 and a 1/2.9″ image format. The actual camera module should be evaluated for sensor, image circle, and mechanical compatibility before production.

Q: Is this lens a fisheye lens?
A: The supplied product positioning identifies it as a wide angle automotive lens. Although its distortion is below -49%, distortion alone does not determine whether a lens should be classified as fisheye. This model is therefore categorized as a wide-angle lens rather than a fisheye lens.

Q: Can this lens be used in harsh outdoor automotive environments?
A: Yes. The lens has an IP69K waterproof rating and a specified operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for demanding outdoor vehicle camera applications.

Q: What is the minimum object distance of this lens?
A: The specified M.O.D. is 0.1m, allowing the lens to image relatively close objects in vehicle-mounted monitoring applications.

Q: Does this lens have a fixed aperture?
A: Yes. It uses a fixed F2.4 aperture and fixed iris configuration, providing a simple optical structure for embedded camera applications.

Q: Can this M12 automotive lens be customized?
A: Custom optical and mechanical configurations can be evaluated according to the camera housing, sensor, field-of-view, environmental, and installation requirements. For project-specific requirements, please contact Towin.
