Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this 8MP M12 lens be used with an IR cut switcher for Day/Night surveillance?
A: This lens comes integrated with a built-in IRCF (IR Cut Filter) on the rear element to deliver sharp, color-accurate daytime images. For dynamic Day/Night switching environments, we can provide a version without the integrated IRCF upon request to match your camera’s mechanical IR-cut switcher.
Q: Will this lens cause vignetting or dark corners on a 1/2.7″ sensor?
A: No. The lens features a maximum image circle format of Φ6.9mm, which fully covers standard 1/2.7″ imaging sensors without any clipping, ensuring clean, uncompromised perimeter illumination.
Q: How do I adjust the focus on this M12 fixed focal lens?
A: This is a manual focus M12 lens. Focusing is achieved by threading the lens into your camera board’s mount until the image achieves optimal sharpness on your monitor, then securing it using a standard M12 locking ring.
Q: Is the F2.5 aperture sufficient for low-light night vision?
A: Yes. Combined with an 8MP high-sensitivity sensor, the F2.5 aperture balances an optimal depth of field with sufficient light throughput, delivering reliable 4K video when paired with auxiliary IR or white-light LEDs.
Q: Does this lens withstand the high-temperature environment inside a vehicle?
A: Absolutely. The 7G (7 layers of glass) optical structure is highly resilient against thermal expansion and focus shift. Unlike plastic lenses, it maintains crystal-clear 8MP resolution even under extreme automotive temperature variations.
