Applications & Compatible Devices
Core Application Scenarios
This specialized 190° M12 fisheye lens is primarily developed for advanced Drone & UAV lenses navigation, defense mapping, and smart Automotive lens setups such as 360-degree around-view monitoring (AVM). Thanks to its ultra-short 0.1m minimum object distance and ultra-wide view, it serves as an excellent component for high-precision Machine Vision lens sorting, AI robotic spatial awareness, and VR/AR immersive stitching cameras. Its multi-layer glass matrix excels under continuous outdoor sunlight and vibration, safeguarding clarity for perimeter security, smart traffic systems (ITS), and automated factory floors.
Compatible Device List
- Sensors: Tailored for 1/2.3″ large-format CMOS sensors, while remaining backward compatible with 1/2.5″, 1/2.7″, and 1/3″ sensors (such as Sony IMX formats).
- Hardware: Fits seamlessly into standard M12 lens mount threads on industrial cameras, action cameras, UAV payloads, and embedded Linux/Raspberry Pi vision platforms.
- Customization: Supports custom anti-reflective (AR) coatings, bandpass IR filters, or hardened structural housings to fit unique military, aerospace, or industrial inspection frameworks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why does the lens have a <-99% optical distortion rating?
A: This value is normal for a true fisheye lens. It means the lens uses engineered barrel distortion to squeeze an ultra-wide 190° environment onto a flat image sensor.
Q: Is this lens suitable for outdoor drone mapping or extreme weather?
A: Absolutely. Featuring a 9G all-glass construction, it resists optical shifting and mechanical wear from extreme heat or cold, unlike cheaper plastic alternatives.
Q: Does this M12 lens include a built-in IR-cut filter?
A: This lens features a standard 9G design. We can customize the internal coatings or add specific IR-cut filters at the rear based on your system’s day/night configuration.
: Can I use this lens on a standard 1/2.7″ sensor camera?
A: Yes, it is fully compatible. Using it on a 1/2.7″ or smaller sensor will crop the image format slightly, changing the active horizontal and vertical field of view accordingly.
Q: How do I adjust the focus on this fixed focal lens?
A: Focus is adjusted during camera assembly by threading the M12x0.5 mount barrel up or down in its holder until the live feed achieves peak sharpness, then locking it with a set-screw or glue.
Q: Does the F1.8 aperture change dynamically?
A: No, this is a Fixed Iris lens. The aperture stays locked at F1.8 to ensure constant, maximum light transmission for high-speed tracking and low-light operations.
