CCL123034MPFR

Description

This ultra-high-definition 3.4mm M12 lens is precision-engineered for 1/2.3″ image sensors, delivering an extraordinary 18 Megapixel (18MP) resolution. Constructed with an advanced 5G2ASP (5 Glass + 2 Aspherical elements) optical design and an integrated IR-cut filter, it provides uniform edge-to-edge sharpness and superior relative illumination (>70%). Offering a wide 98° diagonal field of view with strict optical distortion controlled under 2%, this lightweight fixed focal lens is the ultimate choice for high-end Drone & UAV aerial imaging, high-precision machine vision, and industrial automation inspection.

Key Product Highlights

• 18MP Ultra-HD Resolving Power: Leverages a 5G2ASP optical structure to resolve extreme details, eliminating pixel-blur and artifacting on high-density sensors.
• 98° Wide-Angle with <2% Distortion: Captures expansive panoramic fields of view while effectively neutralizing the typical “fisheye” warping, critical for spatial mapping.
• Lightweight & Durable Glass Fiber Barrel: Built with a PC+30%GF (polycarbonate with 30% glass fiber) barrel, reducing payload weight for drone flight without compromising thermal stability.
• Superior Relative Illumination (>70%): Eliminates severe vignetting and dark corners, guaranteeing bright, color-accurate exposures from the center to the image periphery.

Technical Specifications

This product is certified by RoHS and ISO9001 quality management system, supports third-party testing, and complies with EU and domestic security equipment access standards, ensuring reliable quality and full compliance.

Applications & Compatible Devices

Core Application Scenarios

This 18MP wide angle low distortion lens is purpose-built for payload-sensitive, high-definition aerial and factory environments. For Drone & UAV Lenses applications, it acts as the primary optical sensor for agricultural monitoring, 3D geographic mapping, and infrastructure inspection, where clear 18MP orthophotos are necessary for GIS data processing. In factory automation (FA lens) and industrial lens deployments, its wide 98° FOV allows cameras to scan wide conveyor belts or large PCBs from short working distances. The integrated IR-cut filter ensures exceptional color fidelity under daylight or factory lighting, making it also ideal for action sports cameras and smart retail analytics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Why is an 18MP rating important for a 3.4mm M12 wide-angle lens?

Most wide-angle M12 lenses only resolve 2MP to 5MP, causing a loss of detail when paired with high-end sensors. An 18MP rating ensures that the optical elements can perfectly match the pixel density of high-resolution 1/2.3″ sensors, enabling clear digital zooming and precise mapping analysis.

Q2: What is the benefit of the 5G2ASP optical construction?

The combination of 5 Glass lenses and 2 Aspherical lens elements (5G2ASP) reduces optical aberrations and controls distortion. Aspherical elements help guide light more efficiently, resulting in a lighter lens module with a shorter T.T.L. (25mm) while maintaining top-tier image quality.

Q3: How does the <2% low distortion impact Drone and UAV mapping?

Standard wide-angle lenses suffer from severe geometric distortion (barrel distortion) which warps maps and architectural lines. By keeping distortion under 2%, this lens minimizes image stretching at the edges, making stitched aerial orthophotos highly accurate for GIS software.

Q4: What does “Relative Illumination >70%” mean for my images?

Relative illumination measures how evenly light is distributed across the sensor. A rating of >70% ensures that the corners of your images remain bright and free from heavy vignetting (dark corners), which is essential for uniform automated inspection and aerial surveys.

Q5: Is the PC+30%GF lens barrel durable enough for industrial and outdoor use?

Yes. Polycarbonate reinforced with 30% Glass Fiber (PC+30%GF) provides excellent structural integrity, impact resistance, and high thermal stability. It offers metal-like strength while keeping the lens extremely lightweight, which extends drone battery flight times.

Q6: Does this lens include a built-in IR-cut filter?

Yes, it features an integrated IR-cut filter. This filter blocks infrared light during daytime or under ambient factory lighting to prevent color distortion (such as pinkish tints), ensuring true-to-life color replication for both human viewing and computer vision algorithms.
