Purchase a CS Mount Lens for Security Cameras and the Raspberry Pi 12MP Camera
Keep it Simple with a CS Mount Lens.
CS-mount lenses provide direct compatibility with CS cameras, like the Raspberry Pi High-Quality Camera. These lenses make it easy to build custom cameras such as a Video Conferencing Camera or a Raspberry Pi Security Camera system.
4K+ CS Mount Lenses for 12MP Cameras with Image Sensors up to 1/1.7" in size
Lower Cost CS Mount Lenses for DIY Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera Projects
Important! CS-mount lenses are not compatible with C Mount cameras. On average, C Mount camera lenses have lower resolution than CS Mount camera lenses, so we do not offer any C mount lenses. For more information about lens mounts and camera compatibility please review our knowledge base page Lens Mounts 101.
