8mm 3MP M12 Low Distortion Lens
This 8mm M12 low distortion lens is designed for compact camera modules that require a controlled field of view and improved image geometry. With a 45° diagonal FOV, 3MP resolution, F2.0 aperture, and distortion below -6%, it is suitable for security cameras, embedded vision systems, and compact inspection devices.
M12 Low Distortion Lens Core Highlights
- Controlled 36° Horizontal FOV — Provides focused scene coverage without the extreme perspective of ultra-wide lenses.
- Low Distortion < -6% — Reduces image deformation, making it a better choice for applications where object shape and position need to remain visually accurate.
- 3MP Resolution with F2.0 Aperture — Combines practical image detail with a relatively bright optical configuration for everyday imaging.
- Compact Φ14 × 16.4mm Design — The small M12 lens body supports integration into space-limited camera modules.
- 6G + IR Cut Construction — Provides a dedicated optical configuration for visible-light imaging systems with IR Cut requirements.
M12 Low Distortion Lens Applications
This 8mm M12 low distortion lens is suited to applications requiring controlled viewing angles and reduced geometric distortion rather than maximum scene coverage.
- Compact Security Cameras — Suitable for indoor monitoring where a focused viewing area is preferred.
- Embedded Vision Devices — The compact Φ14 × 16.4mm design fits space-constrained camera assemblies.
- Object Recognition Cameras — Low distortion helps maintain more accurate object shapes and image geometry.
- Compact Inspection Systems — Suitable for close-range imaging where excessive wide-angle distortion can affect visual inspection.
Compatible equipment: Compatible with 1/3″ CMOS camera modules using an M12 × 0.5 mount, including compact security cameras, embedded vision modules, and inspection devices. For customized focal length, FOV, or optical requirements, contact TOWIN.
