Description
Upgrade your long-range imaging precision with our professional 2MP 30mm M12 Pinhole ITS Lens. Specifically engineered for specialized scanning and surveillance, this high-performance fixed focal lens features a standard M12x0.5 mount and a narrow 12° horizontal field of view (H.F.O.V.) on large-format 1/2″ sensors. Boasting a ultra-bright F1.6 aperture and a native low distortion lens profile, it delivers exceptional 2 Megapixel clarity over extended distances. It serves as the ultimate optical component for intelligent transportation networks, detailed industrial automation, and high-contrast factory inspection.
Key Product Highlights
- Long-Range 30mm Telephoto Capture: Provides a tight 12° narrow horizontal perspective, magnifying distant targets with exceptional clarity while eliminating background clutter.
- Ultra-Bright F1.6 Large Aperture: Captures substantial light volumes to ensure sharp imagery at high shutter speeds, drastically reducing motion blur in high-speed tracking.
- True Geometric Low Distortion: Features advanced optical alignment that delivers straight, unwarped edges, ideal for precise measuring and recognition algorithms.
- Flexible Manual Focus Adjustment: Supports precise manual calibration with a close 0.2m minimum object distance, giving engineers absolute control over the focal plane.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes a 30mm lens different from standard 2.8mm or 3.6mm M12 lenses?
A: Standard 2.8mm or 3.6mm lenses are wide-angle options for close-range areas. This 30mm lens is a telephoto lens with a narrow 12° H.F.O.V., built specifically to zoom in and capture distant objects with zero wide-angle distortion.
Q: Is the large F1.6 aperture beneficial for traffic monitoring at night?
A: Yes, absolutely. The F1.6 aperture allows a massive amount of light to hit the sensor, enabling the fast shutter speeds required to capture sharp vehicle details at night without motion blur.
Q: Can I use this M12 lens on a standard C-mount or CS-mount industrial camera?
A: Yes. While it has a native M12x0.5 mount, it can easily adapt to any standard industrial C-mount or CS-mount camera by utilizing a mechanical M12-to-C/CS adapter ring.
Q: How do I adjust the focus on this specific model?
A: This lens relies on Manual Focus. You adjust it during integration by rotating the lens barrel within the M12 holder until your target distance achieves peak sharpness, then lock it securely in place.
Q: Does this lens feature an adjustable iris?
A: No, this is a Fixed Iris lens. Keeping the aperture locked at F1.6 maximizes light collection stability and removes moving parts, significantly increasing its lifespan under continuous outdoor or factory vibrations.
Q: What is the physical advantage of the 36.95mm TTL?
A: For a 30mm telephoto lens, a Total Track Length of 36.95mm is remarkably compact. It allows you to deploy narrow-angle, long-distance imaging setups inside highly restricted physical enclosures.
