This 2.56mm 4MP M12 lens is an ultra-wide-angle fixed focal lens designed for imaging systems that require extremely broad scene coverage. Featuring a 154° diagonal FOV, 130° horizontal FOV, 71° vertical FOV, and high optical distortion of less than -72%, this compact lens is well suited for Wide Angle imaging, panoramic observation, compact monitoring devices, and embedded vision applications.
With a 154° diagonal field of view and 130° horizontal FOV, this 2.56mm lens can capture a very broad area from a compact installation position. It is suitable for applications where maximizing scene coverage is more important than maintaining rectilinear geometry, such as room monitoring, indoor observation, equipment-area monitoring, and compact panoramic imaging.
The high optical distortion is particularly relevant to Wide Angle imaging systems where a very wide viewing angle is required. The lens works with the camera’s image‑processing pipeline for evaluation in applications that require distortion correction post‑capture.
The M12X0.5 mount, 14.5mm T.T.L., and 4.38mm B.F.L. make this lens suitable for compact camera architectures where optical space is limited. Its fixed F2.4 aperture and fixed focal configuration provide a straightforward optical setup for embedded camera modules.
Compatible devices may include 1/2.9″ CMOS camera modules, compact monitoring cameras, panoramic camera modules, embedded vision devices, IoT imaging equipment, smart monitoring terminals, and small-form-factor observation cameras.
For projects using different sensor formats, the Sensor Guide can help evaluate whether the selected sensor and lens image circle are appropriately matched.
The combination of 2.56mm focal length, 154° diagonal FOV, and <-72% optical distortion gives this lens a strong fisheye-style optical profile. It suits systems that observe a large‑scale area via one single camera instead of multiple narrow‑angle cameras.
Typical applications include wide-area indoor surveillance, panoramic observation, compact security cameras, smart home cameras, embedded monitoring modules, and wide-angle vision systems.
When selecting the appropriate lens for a target coverage area, the FOV Calculator can be used to estimate the relationship between sensor size, focal length, working distance, and field of view.

Q: What type of lens is this 2.56mm 4MP lens?
A: This is a 2.56mm fixed focal M12 lens with an ultra-wide 154° diagonal FOV. Its high optical distortion makes it particularly suitable for fisheye-style and panoramic imaging applications.
Q: Is this lens suitable for fisheye applications?
A: Yes. The 154° diagonal field of view and <-72% optical distortion give the lens a strong fisheye-style optical profile for systems requiring extremely wide scene coverage.
Q: Which sensor is this lens designed for?
A: The specified FOV is based on the OV4689 sensor, with a 1/2.9″ image format and 4MP resolution.
Q: What is the mount type of this lens?
A: The lens uses an M12X0.5 mount, making it suitable for compact camera modules and embedded imaging systems designed for M12 lenses.
Q: Does this lens provide low distortion imaging?
A: No. This lens is intentionally designed with very high optical distortion of less than -72% to achieve its extremely wide viewing angle. It should therefore be selected for ultra-wide or fisheye imaging rather than low-distortion applications.
Q: What is the minimum object distance of this M12 lens?
A: The specified M.O.D. is 0.2m, allowing the lens to be used for imaging scenarios where objects may be positioned relatively close to the camera.
Q: Can this lens be used for compact security cameras?
A: Yes. Its 2.56mm focal length, 130° horizontal FOV, M12X0.5 mount, and compact optical configuration make it suitable for wide-area compact monitoring and embedded security camera designs.
Q: How can I determine whether this lens provides enough coverage for my application?
A: You can use the FOV Calculator to evaluate the expected field of view based on the sensor, focal length, and installation distance. For additional optical selection considerations, refer to the Lens Selection Guide.
