Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this 2.2mm lens work with a 1/2.8″ sensor?
A: This lens is optimized for a 1/3″ image format. If used on a larger 1/2.8″ sensor, you may experience slight black corners or vignetting around the edges of the image.

Q: What does the “-87% Optical Distortion” mean for my image?
A: This indicates a traditional fisheye barrel distortion effect. It allows the lens to capture an ultra-wide 170° view. For straight-line accuracy, this distortion can be easily corrected using software de-warping algorithms.
