Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this 6MP M12 lens be used on smaller sensors like 1/2.8″?
A: Yes, this lens is fully compatible with smaller sensors like 1/2″ or 1/2.8″. However, please note that the field of view (F.O.V.) will crop proportionally according to the smaller sensor size.

Q: Does this lens support night vision applications?
A: Yes. With a bright F1.8 aperture, it captures excellent low-light details. The built-in IRCF (IR Cut Filter) ensures vibrant daytime colors, and we offer customized versions without IRCF for 850nm/940nm infrared night vision illumination.
A: Yes. With a bright F1.8 aperture, it captures excellent low-light details. The built-in IRCF (IR Cut Filter) ensures vibrant daytime colors, and we offer customized versions without IRCF for 850nm/940nm infrared night vision illumination.
Q: What does the <-78% optical distortion mean for my images?
A: This is a characteristic of fisheye lenses designed to capture ultra-wide fields of view (170°). The barrel distortion can be easily corrected digitally on the software side (dewarping) via your camera’s ISP or software backend.
