What Are The Main Parameters Of The M12 Lens?

The M12 lens is a popular modular lens, especially in security monitoring equipment, it is one of the most common supporting lenses. The M12 lens can be used in different monitoring environments and has a wide range of applicability.

1、What are the main parameters of the M12 lens?

Generally speaking, M12 lenses have different lens model requirements depending on the specific application, and the focus on parameters may also be different. The following introduces several common M12 lens parameters:

Focal length

Focal length is usually measured in millimeters (mm), such as 2.8 mm, 3.6 mm, etc. Different focal lengths determine the field of view and magnification of the lens.

Field of view

The field of view angle indicates the field of view of the lens, usually expressed in degrees of horizontal, vertical or diagonal field of view angle, such as 110 degrees, 80 degrees, etc.

The M12 lens

Resolution

Resolution refers to the maximum resolution that the lens can achieve, usually expressed as the number of pixels corresponding to the horizontal line, such as 1920x1080, 2560x1440, etc.

Aperture

Aperture represents the maximum aperture value of the lens, which determines the light transmittance of the lens. Common aperture values include F1.8, F2.0, F2.8, F4.0, etc.

Image sensor size

This is commonly referred to as the target surface size, which indicates the size of the image sensor that the lens is suitable for, such as 1/2.5 inch, 1/3 inch, etc.

Distortion

Distortion refers to the degree of distortion of the lens image, such as fisheye distortion, radial distortion, etc.

2、What are the application fields of M12 lenses?

Small video camera

Due to its compact design, small size and light weight, M12 lenses can be easily embedded in various small devices. Therefore, M12 lenses are suitable for various small cameras, such as action cameras, camcorders, drones, smartphone cameras, etc.

The application fields of M12 lenses

Surveillance cameras

M12 lenses are suitable for various types of surveillance cameras, such as indoor surveillance cameras, access control systems, vehicle-mounted cameras, etc. Due to their compact design and high-quality optical performance, M12 lenses are very popular in the surveillance industry.

Medical equipment

M12 lenses are also used in medical equipment, such as endoscopes, microscopes, etc. Due to its compact design and high-quality optical performance, M12 lenses can provide clear images and adapt to the needs of medical equipment.

Automated vision system

M12 lenses can also be used with automated vision systems, such as industrial robots, automated production lines, machine vision inspection, etc. Due to their interchangeability, easy installation, and high optical performance, M12 lenses have important application value in these fields.
