Fisheye Lens – CCL136015

CCL136015 is 1/3.6″ 1.5mm High-Precision Fisheye lens with Built-In Filter, F2.2 Affordable M12/S-Mount Lens for DIY Projects, 190° VGA resolution CCTV lens.

For systems where the required field of view depends on camera geometry and installation distance, the FOV Calculator can help estimate the coverage area before selecting the final lens configuration.

1.5mm M12 190° Fisheye Lens for Ultra-Wide-Angle Imaging

This 1.5mm M12 fisheye lens is designed for compact camera systems that require an extremely wide field of view in a small optical package. With a 190° diagonal and horizontal FOV, 120° vertical FOV, fixed F2.2 aperture, and M12x0.5 mount, it provides broad scene coverage for embedded vision, compact surveillance, automotive vision, and panoramic imaging applications.

Its Φ14 × 12.95mm compact housing and 16.50mm total track length make this fixed focal lens well suited to space-constrained camera modules where maximum coverage is more important than long-distance image magnification.

Applications & Compatible Devices

Core Application Scenes

This 1.5mm M12 fisheye lens is primarily designed for applications where extremely wide scene coverage is required from a small camera module. Its 190° FOV makes it particularly useful for short-range panoramic imaging, compact monitoring modules, and embedded cameras that need to capture areas immediately surrounding the camera.

In smart security systems, the lens can be integrated into compact indoor monitoring cameras, ceiling-mounted observation modules, and small embedded surveillance devices where a single camera needs to cover a large area at close range. The ultra-wide viewing angle helps reduce blind spots and can simplify camera placement in confined spaces.

For automotive vision and vehicle-mounted imaging, its compact M12 form factor and extremely wide FOV make it suitable for close-range auxiliary cameras, surround-view concepts, parking-area observation, and other embedded camera modules where broad coverage is required within a limited installation space.

The lens can also be used in compact machine vision and robotic vision systems where the objective is scene awareness rather than high-resolution dimensional inspection. Its wide perspective can help an embedded camera observe work areas, machine surroundings, or short-range movement within a confined installation zone.

Compatible Device List

• Compact Embedded Cameras: Suitable for small camera modules using 1/3.6″ image sensors and M12 × 0.5 lens interfaces.
• Smart Security Cameras: Appropriate for compact indoor monitoring units, panoramic observation modules, and close-range surveillance devices.
