This 2.7mm M12 wide angle board lens is designed for compact camera systems that require extremely wide scene coverage in a small optical package. Built for a 1/3″ image format and compatible with the OV4689 sensor, the lens delivers 4MP resolution with a maximum diagonal F.O.V. of 155.2°, 127° horizontal, and 66.5° vertical. Its -49% optical distortion provides an ultra-wide or wide angle perspective for capturing large surrounding areas, while the F2.5 aperture provides balanced light transmission. The M12x0.5 mount, 4.88mm B.F.L., and 0.1m M.O.D. support compact camera integration and relatively close-range imaging. The integrated IR cut filter is designed for visible-light imaging and helps reduce unwanted infrared transmission. Designed for ultra-wide surveillance and embedded vision applications, this lens is suitable for CCTV, smart security, robotics, drones, and compact wide-area monitoring systems.

155.2° Ultra-Wide Field of View
With a maximum diagonal F.O.V. of 155.2°, this lens captures an exceptionally broad scene, making it suitable for applications where wide-area coverage and reduced blind spots are important.
127° Horizontal Coverage
The 127° horizontal F.O.V. provides extensive side-to-side coverage for surveillance and environmental awareness applications.
4MP Resolution
The 4MP optical configuration provides sufficient image detail for compact monitoring, security, and embedded vision systems while maintaining the ultra-wide optical design.
Wide angle Optical Perspective
The -49% distortion characteristic provides a strong ultra-wide perspective. This is advantageous for maximizing scene coverage but is not intended for precision measurement or geometrically accurate imaging.
Compact M12x0.5 Mount
The M12x0.5 mount is well suited for compact board cameras, embedded camera modules, and space-constrained imaging equipment.
Close-Range Imaging Capability
With a 0.1m minimum object distance, the lens can focus on relatively close subjects, supporting indoor monitoring, compact devices, and short-range environmental imaging.
Integrated IR Cut Filter
The IRCF configuration helps reduce unwanted infrared transmission during visible-light imaging, supporting more natural color reproduction in standard daylight and indoor camera systems.
CCTV & Wide-Area Surveillance
The 155.2° diagonal FOV and 127° horizontal FOV allow a single camera to cover a large area, making this lens suitable for indoor surveillance, entrances, corridors, retail spaces, and other monitoring environments.

Smart Security Systems
The compact M12 configuration and ultra-wide perspective make this lens suitable for smart security cameras that require broad environmental awareness from a compact camera module.
See TOWIN’s Smart Security Solutions for additional application-specific optical solutions.
Robotics Vision
The extremely wide field of view can help robotic systems perceive a larger surrounding environment for navigation, obstacle awareness, and situational monitoring.
Explore Robotics Vision Solutions for additional robotics imaging options.
Drone Imaging
The compact M12 mount and ultra-wide perspective can be useful for lightweight drone cameras requiring broad environmental coverage from a small optical module.
See TOWIN’s Drone Imaging Solutions for more drone and UAV optical applications.
Embedded AI Cameras
The lens can be integrated into compact AI-enabled camera modules where wide environmental awareness is more important than maintaining a geometrically linear image.
Wide-Area Monitoring
The combination of 155.2° diagonal FOV and 127° horizontal FOV makes the lens suitable for applications requiring maximum scene coverage, such as room monitoring, entrance monitoring, and compact panoramic imaging systems.
Ultra-Wide FOV and Distortion
The 2.7mm focal length produces a 155.2° diagonal FOV and 127° horizontal FOV. The -49% distortion indicates a strong fisheye-style optical characteristic. This makes the lens highly effective for wide-area observation but unsuitable for applications where accurate geometric representation is critical.

Sensor Compatibility
This lens is designed for a 1/3″ image format and is specified with the OV4689 sensor. Proper sensor and lens matching is important to achieve the intended image coverage and avoid optical limitations.

Distortion Consideration
The -49% distortion is a defining characteristic of this lens. Rather than being a defect for its intended use, strong barrel/wide angle distortion enables the lens to achieve an exceptionally wide field of view. Applications involving dimensional measurement, object size calculation, or accurate image geometry should instead consider a Low Distortion Lens.
Aperture
The F2.5 fixed aperture provides a balanced optical configuration for compact imaging systems. Actual image brightness will depend on sensor sensitivity, exposure settings, and available illumination.
Working Distance
The 0.1m M.O.D. enables relatively close-range imaging. This can be useful for indoor monitoring and embedded camera applications where the subject is positioned near the camera.
IR Cut Filter
The integrated IR cut filter is designed for visible-light imaging by limiting unwanted infrared transmission. This configuration is different from an IR-corrected lens designed to maintain focus across visible and near-infrared wavelengths.
Q: What applications is this 2.7mm M12 wide angle board lens suitable for?
A: This lens is suitable for wide-area CCTV surveillance, smart security cameras, robotics vision, drone imaging, embedded AI cameras, and other systems requiring an extremely wide field of view.
Q: What is the maximum field of view of this lens?
A: The lens provides a maximum diagonal F.O.V. of 155.2°, with 127° horizontal and 66.5° vertical coverage when used with the specified OV4689 configuration.
Q: Is this a wide angle M12 lens?
A: Yes. The -49% distortion and 155.2° diagonal field of view indicate a strong wide angle or ultra-wide optical design intended to maximize scene coverage.
Q: Is this lens suitable for low-distortion machine vision?
A: No. The -49% distortion is intentionally designed for ultra-wide coverage rather than geometrically accurate imaging. For measurement or precision inspection, a low-distortion lens would be more appropriate.
Q: What sensor is this lens designed for?
A: The lens is designed for a 1/3″ image format and is specified with the OV4689 sensor. The sensor and optical image format should be matched during camera system development.
Q: Can this lens be used for close-range imaging?
A: Yes. With a minimum object distance of 0.1m, the lens can focus on relatively close subjects, making it suitable for indoor monitoring, compact devices, and short-range wide-area imaging.
Q: Does this lens support infrared night vision?
A: This configuration includes an IR cut filter, which is intended to block unwanted infrared wavelengths for visible-light imaging. It is therefore different from an IR-corrected lens intended for near-infrared night vision.
