Low Distortion Lens – CCL125041MPFR

CCL125041MPFR Low distortion wide angle 1/2.5″ 4.1mm 66° M12 mount lens with HD 5MP for rectilinear scanning

4.1mm 8MP M12 Low Distortion Wide Angle Lens

This 4.1mm M12 lens is designed for compact imaging systems that require 8MP high-resolution imaging, wide field of view, and extremely low distortion. Featuring a 1/2.5″ image format, 83° diagonal FOV, 66° horizontal FOV, and 49° vertical FOV, it provides broad scene coverage while maintaining accurate image geometry. With distortion below -0.4%, this 8MP M12 low distortion lens is well suited for vision systems where image detail and geometric consistency are both important. The F2.8 fixed aperture, 0.1m M.O.D., and compact Φ14 × 17.2mm dimensions make it suitable for space-constrained camera designs. The 3G2P optical construction with an integrated IR cut filter further supports reliable visible-light imaging. Designed for compact machine vision, smart security, embedded vision, and inspection applications, this lens offers a practical combination of high resolution, controlled distortion, and compact mechanical integration.

M12 Low Distortion Lens Applications & Compatible Devices

Compact Machine Vision

The combination of 8MP resolution and < -0.4% distortion makes this lens particularly suitable for compact machine vision systems requiring both high image detail and accurate geometric representation. The 66° horizontal FOV provides useful coverage for inspection tasks without the extreme perspective associated with fisheye optics.

Potential applications include:

• Automated inspection cameras
• Compact machine vision modules
• Component inspection systems
• Product quality inspection
• Embedded industrial cameras

Precision Inspection

The lens provides an M.O.D. of 0.1m, allowing it to be used for relatively close-range imaging. Combined with 8MP resolution and less than -0.4% distortion, it is suitable for applications where small features need to be captured while maintaining consistent image geometry.

Typical devices may include compact inspection cameras, automated inspection modules, and embedded imaging equipment.

For more information about how optical distortion affects inspection accuracy, see the Distortion Guide.

Smart Security & Monitoring

The 83° diagonal FOV allows the camera to capture a relatively broad scene while the low-distortion optical design helps keep straight lines and object proportions more natural. This makes the lens suitable for compact security cameras, indoor monitoring devices, access control systems, and smart embedded cameras.

Its Φ14 × 17.2mm dimensions are particularly valuable when the camera housing has limited internal space.

Embedded Vision & Robotics

The combination of an M12 × 0.5 mount, compact mechanical dimensions, 8MP resolution, and 83° diagonal FOV makes this lens suitable for embedded vision modules used in automated equipment and robotics.

The relatively broad field of view allows a compact camera to observe a larger area, while low distortion can help provide more consistent input for image-processing and vision algorithms.
