Applications & Compatible Equipment
Core Application Scenarios
This industrial-grade Fixed Focal Lens is purpose-built for scenarios requiring wide spatial data collection and maximum pixel density. It serves as an essential component in Drone & UAV Lenses systems for large-scale agricultural mapping, environmental surveying, and low-altitude search-and-rescue where time on target must be minimized. In factory automation, it integrates perfectly as an Industrial Lens and Machine Vision Lens to supervise massive warehousing docks, guide autonomous logistics robots (AGVs), and capture full-chassis assembly inspections. Furthermore, its resilient wide perspective functions as a dependable CCTV Lens for big-box retail centers, high-altitude city checkpoints, and complex transportation lobbies.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will the 136° field of view introduce a heavy barrel distortion effect?
A: Yes, a 3mm focal length naturally creates a curved perspective, typical of a Fisheye Lens. For industrial mapping requiring flat images, this distortion can be easily calibrated and corrected via software dewarping algorithms.

Q: Can this CS-mount lens be directly used on a C-mount industrial camera?
A: No, a native CS-Mount Lens cannot focus on a C-mount camera body because its back focal length is too short (12.5mm vs 17.526mm). It must be paired natively with a CS-mount camera thread to function properly.

Q: What is the main advantage of the 1/2.3″ format over standard 1/3″ lenses?
A: A 1/2.3″ format lens project a much larger optical circle. When paired with a large sensor, it collects significantly more light and achieves much higher edge resolution, which is vital for true 12MP clarity.

Q: Does the “IR Corrected” design require manual switching between day and night?
A: No. Being an IR Corrected Lens means its glass elements focus both visible and near-infrared wavelengths onto the exact same sensor plane, eliminating focus shift when your camera switches to night-vision mode.

Q: Can I adjust the iris if the lens is exposed to bright outdoor sunlight?
A: No, this lens features a Fixed Iris at F2.0 to maximize light transmission. Exposure modifications must be managed on the camera side utilizing automatic electronic shutter speeds or digital gain (AGC) configurations.

Q: Is the manual focus mechanism reliable enough to withstand drone flights?
A: Absolutely. The manual focus ring includes an industrial locking screw. Once locked during initial setup, it easily withstands heavy engine vibrations and high flight forces without slipping (Drone & UAV Lenses asset).
