M8 Lens – M8P08012728

M8P08012728 is Manual focus fixed-aperture fixed-zoom 2MP wide-angle 1/2.7″ M8X0.35 mount 50°(D) 42°(H) 24°(V) F2.8 security surveillance M8 lens.

8mm M8 Miniature Lens for 1/2.7″ 2MP Machine Vision

This 8mm M8 miniature lens is designed for 1/2.7″ image sensors and 2MP imaging, providing a 50° diagonal, 42° horizontal, and 24° vertical field of view. With an M8x0.35 mount, F2.8 fixed aperture, manual focus, and 0.3m minimum object distance, it offers a compact fixed-focal solution for embedded cameras, industrial inspection, and space-constrained machine vision systems.

Product Core Highlights

• 8mm focal length for 1/2.7″ sensors provides a controlled field of view for compact imaging systems.
• 2MP resolution support matches common embedded and industrial camera modules.
• M8x0.35 miniature mount enables integration where camera space is limited.
• 50° diagonal FOV provides focused scene coverage for inspection and monitoring applications.
• F2.8 fixed aperture offers a simple and consistent optical configuration.
• Manual focus allows precise adjustment according to the installation distance.
• 0.3m M.O.D. supports relatively close-range imaging.

8mm M8 Miniature Lens Applications

Core Application Scenes

This lens is designed around a longer 8mm focal length and compact M8x0.35 interface, making it suitable for applications that need a more focused field of view while maintaining a small optical footprint. Its 50° diagonal FOV is considerably narrower than ultra-wide or fisheye optics, making it better suited to systems where the target area is more controlled.

For compact machine vision, the 8mm focal length can be useful when the camera needs to concentrate on a defined inspection area rather than capture a very large surrounding scene. The 42° horizontal FOV and 24° vertical FOV provide a relatively directional viewing geometry for targeted inspection.

In industrial inspection, the manual focus allows the installer to set the optical focus according to the actual working distance. With a 0.3m M.O.D., the lens can support relatively close inspection while maintaining its compact mechanical configuration.

The M8x0.35 mount is particularly valuable for embedded camera designs where a conventional C-mount or CS-mount lens would be unnecessarily large. This makes the lens suitable for OEM imaging devices, compact inspection modules, and other applications with restricted installation space.

The fixed iris and fixed focal length also simplify integration into dedicated camera products. Since no IRCF is specified, system designers can select an external filter or manage spectral filtering at the camera-module level when required.
