Description
Upgrade your optical systems with our premium 5MP 3.5mm M12 lens. Expertly engineered for high-accuracy imaging, this fixed focal lens offers a generous 90-degree diagonal field of view combined with an industry-leading optical distortion of less than -0.4%. Built with a compact Φ14mm form factor and a reliable 2G2P glass-plastic hybrid structure, it delivers crystal-clear 5-megapixel resolution and unmatched geometric fidelity. It is the ideal solution for space-constrained industrial inspection, machine vision, and smart automated vision systems.
Key Product Highlights
- Near-Zero Distortion (<-0.4%): Eliminates image warping and edge bending, ensuring absolute geometric accuracy for precise measurements and scanning.
- 90° Wide Angle Coverage: Provides an expansive view (80° H / 65° V) with a short 3.5mm focal length, capturing more data in tight physical spaces.
- 0.1m Minimum Object Distance: Offers sharp close-up focus down to 10cm, allowing the camera to capture minute surface details without losing 5MP resolution.
- F5.6 Optimized Depth of Field: Features a calibrated F5.6 fixed aperture that maximizes the depth of field, keeping both near and far objects in sharp focus simultaneously.

Target Applications & Compatible Devices
Core Application Scenes
This 3.5mm low distortion M12 lens is purpose-built for close-range, high-accuracy inspection environments where image warping causes costly errors. It excels in factory automation (FA) for PCB inspection, automated sorting, and QR code tracking on fast-moving conveyor belts. Thanks to its tiny Φ14mm diameter and 0.1m close-focus capability, it is highly suited for medical skin analyzers, dental cameras, and handheld medical endoscopy devices. Additionally, the deep focus provided by its F5.6 aperture makes it perfect for facial recognition access terminals, smart parcel lockers, and robotic alignment mechanisms working under bright factory lights.
Compatible Device List
- Sensors: Tailored for 1/2.5″ format sensors and backward compatible with 1/2.7″, 1/2.8″, and 1/3″ CMOS platforms (such as Aptina MI5100, Sony IMX series, and OmniVision).
- Industrial Cameras: Seamlessly integrates with micro-sized Machine Vision smart cameras, USB board cameras, and MIPI embedded vision modules utilizing standard M12 mounts.
- Smart AIoT Hardware: Fits premium facial recognition kiosks, identification scanners, and automated optical inspection (AOI) benchtop hardware.
- Customization Options: Optical coatings and filters can be factory-modified to support specialized bandpass requirements (e.g., 650nm IR-cut or 850nm/940nm IR-pass).

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why is a <-0.4% optical distortion rating important for my application?
A: Standard wide-angle lenses tend to bend straight lines near the corners. A distortion rate under 0.4% means the image stays geometrically true, which is critical for accurate measurement and robotic positioning.
Q: Can I use this M12 lens with a smaller 1/3″ or 1/2.8″ sensor?
A: Yes. It is fully compatible with smaller sensors, though the overall Field of View (FOV) will scale down accordingly while keeping the same ultra-sharp central resolution.
Q: What is the benefit of the F5.6 fixed aperture?
A: The F5.6 aperture is engineered to provide an extended depth of field (DoF). This ensures that objects remain in crisp focus even if their distance from the lens changes slightly.
Q: What does the 0.1m Minimum Object Distance (M.O.D.) allow me to do?
A: It allows the camera to focus on objects just 10cm away from the lens. This makes it ideal for macro scanning, medical skin diagnostics, and laboratory testing.
Q: Is this 2G2P lens structure durable enough for industrial environments?
A: Yes. The 2 Glass and 2 Plastic hybrid design provides excellent thermal stability against temperature shifts while maintaining a highly cost-effective, lightweight profile.
Q: Does this product meet environmental compliance standards for export?
A: Yes, this lens is manufactured under strict ISO9001 guidelines and is fully certified by RoHS, meeting all EU security and environmental access criteria.
