Wide Angle Lens – CCL12703218MP

CCL12703218MP 1/2.7″ 3.2mm M12 wide angle lens with 124° FOV

3.2mm M12 wide angle lens with 124° FOV

This 3.2mm M12 wide angle lens is designed for compact imaging systems that require broad scene coverage from a limited installation space. With a 1/2.7″ image format, 124° diagonal FOV, 106° horizontal FOV, and 60° vertical FOV, the lens captures a large viewing area while maintaining a compact 23.4mm TTL design. Its F1.8 fixed aperture helps provide efficient light transmission for indoor security and embedded camera applications.

The lens uses an M12X0.5 mount, manual focus, fixed iris, and fixed focal length configuration, making it suitable for compact camera modules where simple mechanical integration and wide-angle coverage are important. The 2MP optical design is matched to sensors such as the OV2710 and is well suited to applications where broad scene monitoring is more important than precision geometric measurement.

Key Product Highlights

• 124° Ultra-Wide Diagonal FOV — Provides broad scene coverage for cameras installed in confined spaces, reducing blind areas without requiring a larger optical assembly.
• 3.2mm Fixed Focal Length — Delivers a wide perspective suitable for close-range monitoring where a standard focal length would cover too little of the scene.
• F1.8 Fixed Aperture — Provides a relatively bright optical configuration for indoor security and embedded camera systems where available light can vary.
• Compact M12X0.5 Interface — Supports straightforward integration into compact camera modules and space-constrained imaging devices.
• 23.4mm TTL with 6G Construction — Balances compact mechanical integration with the optical requirements of wide-angle 2MP imaging.

3.2mm M12 Wide Angle Lens Applications

This lens is particularly suited to imaging systems that need a wide viewing angle in a compact M12 package. Its 3.2mm focal length and 124° diagonal FOV make it more appropriate for broad-area observation than applications requiring highly accurate dimensional measurement.

Core Applications

• Indoor CCTV and Security Cameras — The 106° horizontal FOV helps cover wider indoor areas from a relatively short camera-to-scene distance, making the lens suitable for rooms, entrances, corridors, and small commercial spaces.
• Compact Monitoring Cameras — The M12X0.5 interface and 23.4mm TTL support integration into compact surveillance camera modules where installation space is restricted.
• Embedded Vision Devices — The small fixed-focal configuration can be integrated into embedded imaging equipment that requires wide scene coverage without a complex zoom mechanism.
• Doorway and Entrance Monitoring — The wide-angle perspective can capture people and activity across a broad entrance area from a relatively close mounting position.
• Indoor IoT Camera Systems — The F1.8 aperture and compact M12 configuration are suitable for smart camera devices requiring wide-angle monitoring in a small enclosure.

Compatible Devices

The lens is designed around a 1/2.7″ image format and can be used with compatible 2MP camera modules and CMOS sensors, including configurations based on the specified OV2710 FOV reference. Its M12X0.5 mount makes it suitable for compact camera boards and embedded modules that support an M12 lens interface.

For projects requiring different viewing angles or optical configurations, TOWIN’s M12 Lenses provide additional compact lens options. For security-focused applications, you can also explore Megapixel CCTV Lenses.

Because this lens has relatively high wide-angle distortion, it is better suited to scene monitoring and coverage-oriented imaging than applications requiring precise geometric measurement. For applications where distortion control is a critical requirement, TOWIN’s Low Distortion Lenses provide an alternative optical direction.

Designed for compact wide-angle CCTV and embedded camera applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What sensor size is this 3.2mm lens designed for?
A: This lens is designed for a 1/2.7″ image format and its listed FOV is referenced to the OV2710 sensor configuration.

Q: What is the field of view of this M12 lens?
A: With the specified OV2710 configuration, the lens provides a 124° diagonal FOV, 106° horizontal FOV, and 60° vertical FOV, making it suitable for wide-area monitoring.

Q: Is this lens suitable for CCTV applications?
A: Yes. The 3.2mm focal length, wide FOV, F1.8 aperture, and compact M12X0.5 mount make it suitable for compact CCTV and indoor security camera applications.

Q: Is the aperture adjustable?
A: No. This model uses a fixed F1.8 aperture and fixed iris configuration.

Q: Does this lens support zoom?
A: No. It is a fixed focal length lens with a 3.2mm focal length rather than a zoom or varifocal design.

Q: What type of focusing mechanism does the lens use?
A: The lens uses manual focus, allowing the focus position to be adjusted during camera assembly or installation.

Q: Is this lens suitable for low-distortion machine vision inspection?
A: It is not the preferred choice for precision measurement applications because its specified TV distortion is below -10%. For machine vision tasks requiring accurate object geometry, a dedicated low-distortion lens should be considered.

Q: What does the M12X0.5 mount mean?
A: M12X0.5 refers to the lens mounting thread, with a nominal 12mm diameter and 0.5mm thread pitch. It is commonly used for compact camera modules and embedded imaging systems.
