Description
Enhance your compact imaging systems with our high-performance 3mm 5MP M12 Low Distortion Wide Angle Lens. Engineered for high-definition accuracy in space-constrained layouts, this versatile S-mount lens supports a standard 1/3″ image format. It features a brilliant 5-megapixel resolution combined with a wide 82° horizontal field of view. Utilizing a hybrid 2G2P structure with an integrated IR cut filter, it delivers exceptionally crisp color accuracy while actively keeping optical distortion under -1%. This ensures perfectly straight lines and true-to-life geometric mapping, making it an excellent upgrade for smart security, drone navigation, and automotive vision.
Key Product Highlights
82-Degree Wide-Angle Coverage Without Wavy Distortion
- Wide 82° horizontal field of view captures expansive spaces and blind spots easily.
- Advanced low-distortion optics limit geometric warping to less than -1%.
- Eliminates the annoying curved edge artifacts typical of standard wide lenses.
Sharp 5MP High-Resolution Imaging
- High-fidelity 5-megapixel resolution yields pristine, pixel-dense image clarity.
- Built-in IR cut filter guarantees vibrant daytime colors and seamless day/night transitions.
- Ensures reliable face recognition and structural detail retention from a distance.
Universal S-Mount Integration and Extreme Close Focus
- Threaded M12x0.5 metal mount offers a universal fit for standard board cameras.
- Minimum Object Distance (M.O.D.) of just 0.1 meters allows for close-up monitoring.
- Ultra-compact design measuring Φ14×18.5mm fits deep within tiny device enclosures.
Stable Fixed Aperture Construction
- Fixed F4.0 aperture offers stable exposure and reliable depth of field.
- Hybrid 2G2P design ensures high thermal stability under varying outdoor weather conditions.
- No moving parts inside prevent defocusing caused by high-vibration environments.

Product Application Scenarios and Compatible Devices
Core Application Scenarios
This wide-angle M12 lens is customized for smart home video doorbells, IoT security cameras, drone first-person-view (FPV) navigation, and automotive interior cabin cameras. Thanks to its flat-field low distortion (< -1%), it is also highly useful in commercial retail counters, package dropboxes, and parking assist cameras where straight edges must not warp. The short 0.1-meter minimum focus distance allows it to operate flawlessly in close-quarters monitoring, while its lightweight build reduces the payload weight on UAV gimbals and motorized camera arms.
Compatible Devices List
The lens is fully compatible with mainstream 1/3-inch CMOS image sensors, offering plug-and-play integration with sensors from Sony, OmniVision, and Aptina. It perfectly adapts to Tuya smart home camera modules, Xiaomi video doorbells, Hikvision low-profile dome cameras, and DJI-compatible custom drone camera boards. No structural adjustments or extra adapters are required for standard M12 lens mounts. Furthermore, we support tailored modifications to focal lengths and field of view specs to meet unique custom engineering designs.
Designed for smart security and aerial drone applications.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this lens require an external IR filter for nighttime use?
A: No, this lens comes with an integrated IR cut filter built directly into its optical path, ensuring accurate color rendering during daylight and allowing proper infrared illumination handling at night.
Q: Can this lens be mounted directly on a standard security dome camera?
A: Yes, as long as your camera module uses a standard M12x0.5 thread mount (S-mount) and a 1/3″ or smaller image sensor, this lens will screw in perfectly.
Q: Is the focus manually adjustable?
A: Focus is set by screwing the lens deeper into or out of your camera mount during installation. Once you reach the optimal focus point, it is locked using a standard M12 lock ring.
