Low Distortion Lens – S08023005728

S08023005728 is Low-distortion 8-Megapixel 2/3″ M12-mount lens with 69° diagonal FOV, F2.8 aperture, and 0.1m MOD for security surveillance.

8mm 8MP M12 Low Distortion Lens

This 8mm 8MP M12 low distortion lens is designed for compact vision systems that require high-resolution imaging, controlled geometric distortion, and a relatively broad field of view. With support for a 2/3″ image format and TV distortion below 1%, it provides a practical combination of image detail and optical accuracy.

Featuring an M12×0.5 mount, F2.8 fixed aperture, 0.1m minimum object distance, and 7G optical construction, this fixed focal lens is well suited to compact machine vision cameras, embedded inspection modules, and industrial imaging equipment where installation space is limited.

Product Highlights at a Glance

• 8MP high-resolution imaging for detailed visual inspection and analysis.
• <1% TV distortion helps maintain accurate image geometry across the frame.
• 2/3″ sensor support provides a larger imaging format for demanding vision applications.
• 8mm fixed focal length delivers stable and repeatable optical performance.
• F2.8 fixed aperture provides a practical balance between light transmission and compact optical design.

8mm M12 Low Distortion Lens Applications

Core Application Scenes

This 8mm M12 low distortion machine vision lens is designed for vision systems that need a relatively broad viewing area without accepting the significant geometric deformation associated with highly wide-angle or fisheye optics. Its 57° horizontal FOV allows a single compact camera to cover a useful working area while retaining controlled image geometry.

The lens is particularly suitable for compact machine vision inspection, embedded AI cameras, automated equipment monitoring, barcode and code recognition, and small-scale industrial inspection systems. The combination of 8MP resolution and less than 1% TV distortion can provide detailed and geometrically controlled images for applications where object shape, position, and visual features need to remain clearly represented.

The F2.8 fixed aperture also makes the lens practical for controlled imaging environments. When paired with dedicated LED illumination, it can provide a consistent optical configuration for fixed-position inspection cameras and embedded vision equipment.

Compared with shorter focal length M12 lenses, the 8mm focal length provides a more focused field of view while still offering 69° diagonal coverage. This makes it useful when the camera is installed at a moderate working distance and the system needs to concentrate on a defined inspection region rather than capture an extremely wide scene.

Engineers selecting an M12 lens should consider sensor format, working distance, target dimensions, and required field of view together. Towin’s Lens Selection Guide provides guidance on these optical factors, while the FOV Calculator can help estimate the expected scene coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What type of lens is this 8mm M12 lens?
A: It is an 8mm fixed focal M12 lens designed for 2/3″ sensors. With 8MP resolution and TV distortion below 1%, it is suitable for low-distortion machine vision and embedded imaging applications.

Q: What sensor size does this lens support?
A: The specified image format is 2/3″. This larger sensor format allows the lens to provide a useful field of view while maintaining high-resolution imaging.

Q: How much distortion does this M12 lens have?
A: The specified TV distortion is less than 1%. This controlled distortion helps maintain relatively accurate image geometry for vision and inspection applications.

Q: What is the field of view of the 8mm lens?
A: The lens provides a 69° diagonal FOV, 57° horizontal FOV, and 44° vertical FOV. This gives it a relatively broad but controlled viewing angle.

Q: Is this lens suitable for machine vision applications?
A: Yes. Its 2/3″ image format, 8MP resolution, <1% TV distortion, fixed 8mm focal length, and M12×0.5 mount make it suitable for compact machine vision and embedded inspection systems.

Q: Is this an ultra-wide-angle or fisheye lens?
A: No. Although it provides a relatively broad 69° diagonal FOV, its optical characteristics are better described as low-distortion wide-view imaging rather than fisheye imaging.

Q: What is the minimum object distance of this lens?
A: The minimum object distance is 0.1m, allowing the lens to image relatively close targets when properly focused and integrated into the camera system.

Q: How can I determine whether this 8mm lens provides enough coverage?
A: The required focal length depends on sensor size, working distance, target dimensions, and desired field of view. Towin’s FOV Calculator can help estimate the coverage provided by an 8mm lens in a specific camera configuration.
