This 4.4mm M12 Low Distortion Lens is a compact 5MP low distortion lens designed for industrial imaging, machine vision, inspection systems, and embedded vision applications. With a 1/2.7″ image format, 73° diagonal FOV, and distortion below 0.5%, it provides a practical balance between viewing coverage and geometric accuracy for space-constrained vision systems.
The combination of a 4.4mm focal length, 1/2.7″ image format, 5MP resolution, and distortion below 0.5% makes this lens suitable for applications where the camera needs a reasonably broad viewing area without introducing significant geometric deformation.
For machine vision inspection, the low distortion specification helps preserve the relative shape and position of objects in the captured image. This can be useful for dimensional inspection, component positioning, surface inspection, and automated visual checking where image geometry matters.
The compact M12x0.5 mount and 21.50mm TTL make this lens suitable for embedded cameras and space-limited vision devices. Its 0.2m minimum object distance also allows the camera to be positioned relatively close to the inspection target.
Typical applications include:
For systems requiring accurate lens selection based on sensor size and viewing requirements, the Sensor Guide and Lens Selection Guide can help engineers evaluate image format, focal length, FOV, and other optical parameters.
This lens can be considered for use with:
When designing a vision system, the actual sensor active area should be checked against the lens image format to ensure proper image coverage.
Designed for compact machine vision and industrial inspection applications where low geometric distortion and a practical field of view are required.
Q: What type of lens is this 4.4mm M12 lens?
A: It is a fixed focal M12 lens designed for compact imaging systems, with a 1/2.7″ image format, 5MP resolution, and distortion below 0.5%.
Q: Is this a low distortion lens?
A: Yes. The specified distortion is below 0.5%, making it suitable for applications where maintaining relatively accurate object geometry is important.
Q: Is this lens a fisheye lens?
A: No. A 73° diagonal FOV alone does not indicate a fisheye design. The specified distortion of less than 0.5% is instead characteristic of a low distortion imaging approach.
Q: What sensor size is this lens designed for?
A: The specified image format is 1/2.7″. The camera sensor’s actual active dimensions should be checked during system design to confirm full image coverage.
Q: What applications are suitable for this lens?
A: Typical applications include machine vision inspection, component positioning, embedded vision, barcode inspection, robotic vision, and compact industrial imaging systems.
Q: What is the minimum object distance?
A: The MOD is 0.2m, meaning the specified minimum object distance is 200mm.
Q: What does the M12x0.5 mount mean?
A: M12x0.5 identifies the lens mounting thread, with an approximately 12mm nominal thread diameter and 0.5mm thread pitch. It is widely used in compact board-level and embedded camera systems.
Q: How can I determine whether 4.4mm is the correct focal length?
A: The required focal length depends on the sensor size, camera-to-object distance, and desired field of view. TOWIN’s FOV Calculator can be used as a starting point for evaluating these parameters.
