Wide Angle Lens – S01516004112IR

S01516004112IR is Wide-angle low-distortion manual focus lens, F1.2 low-light-sensitive VGA resolution 1/6″ M12 mount lens for security surveillance.

1.5mm M12 Wide Angle Fixed Focal Lens

This 1.5mm M12 wide angle lens is a compact fixed focal lens designed for small-format cameras requiring a broad viewing area in a limited installation space. With a maximum F1.2 aperture, M12×0.5 mount, manual focus, and fixed iris, it provides a simple optical configuration for compact monitoring and embedded imaging systems.

Product Highlights at a Glance

• 1.5mm fixed focal length for compact wide-area imaging applications.
• 90° FOV at 3.0mm provides broad scene coverage for selected camera configurations.
• F1.2 maximum aperture supports a bright optical path in compact imaging systems.
• M12×0.5 mount with 0.9mm B.F.L. enables space-efficient camera integration.
• Manual focus and fixed iris provide a straightforward configuration for embedded camera designs.

1.5mm M12 Wide Angle Lens Applications

The compact optical design of this M12 lens makes it suitable for camera systems where installation space is limited but a relatively wide viewing angle is required. Its 1.5mm focal length, F1.2 aperture, and short 0.9mm back focal length can support compact camera modules used for scene monitoring and wide-area observation.

Core Application Scenes

• Compact security cameras — Suitable for selected small camera modules requiring broad scene coverage.
• Embedded monitoring systems — The M12×0.5 mount allows integration into compact camera housings and OEM imaging devices.
• Indoor area monitoring — The wide field of view can help cover larger areas from a fixed camera position.
• Equipment and enclosure monitoring — Suitable for embedded cameras installed where optical space is restricted.
• Wide-area observation — Useful when the camera needs to capture a relatively broad scene without using a zoom mechanism.
• OEM camera modules — The fixed focal and fixed iris configuration simplifies integration into customized compact camera products.

Designed for compact wide-angle monitoring applications, this lens can be integrated with small-format VGA camera modules where size, field coverage, and optical simplicity are important.

For additional guidance on compact lens selection, see the M12 Lenses range and TOWIN’s M12 Lens Solution. When determining the actual coverage of a camera system, the FOV Calculator can also help evaluate the relationship between focal length, sensor format, and field of view.

Compatible Device Types

• Compact VGA camera modules
• Embedded monitoring cameras
• Small security camera systems
• OEM/ODM camera assemblies
• Space-constrained imaging devices
• Indoor wide-area monitoring cameras

The actual field of view depends on the camera sensor and optical configuration. For system-level selection, TOWIN’s Lens Selection Guide can be used together with the sensor specifications and required working distance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What type of lens is this?
A: This is a 1.5mm M12 fixed focal wide angle lens designed for 1/6″ VGA camera systems and compact imaging applications.

Q: Is this lens a fisheye lens?
A: It is not classified as a fisheye lens based on the supplied specifications. Although the FOV can reach 90° under the specified 3.0mm condition, the optical parameters are more appropriately positioned as a wide angle lens.

Q: What is the mounting interface?
A: The lens uses an M12×0.5 mount, a common interface for compact camera modules and embedded imaging systems.

Q: What does the F1.2 aperture provide?
A: The F1.2 maximum aperture provides a relatively bright optical path, which can be useful for compact camera systems operating under varying indoor lighting conditions.

Q: Can the focus be adjusted?
A: Yes. The lens uses manual focus, allowing the optical focus position to be adjusted during camera assembly or installation.

Q: Does this lens have a zoom function?
A: No. The lens uses a fixed focal length and fixed zoom configuration. The focal length is 1.5mm.

Q: What camera resolution is this lens designed for?
A: The supplied specification lists VGA resolution. It is therefore primarily suited to VGA-class compact camera applications rather than high-megapixel machine vision systems.
