Frequently asked questions

What sensors is the CIL208 compatible with?

The CIL208 is sized for 1/3.6″ sensors including the IMX226 and AR0821, and it supports 4-5MP resolution.

What is the CIL208 image circle and field of view?

The CIL208 projects a 2.9mm image circle and covers a 200-degree field of view. It is the most compact lens in the Commonlands fisheye range.

How does the CIL208 distortion compare to other fisheye lenses?

At -6% F-Θ, the CIL208 is near-equidistant. That gives a more natural-looking image with less barrel distortion than many fisheyes at this field of view.

What is the difference between CIL208 M12A and M12B variants?

M12A is offered with a 650nm IRC filter as CIL208-F2.2-M12A650 or without a filter as CIL208-F2.2-M12ANIR. M12B is offered with a 660nm IRC filter as CIL208-F2.2-M12B660 or without one as CIL208-F2.2-M12BNIR.

Does the CIL208 ship same day from the US?

Yes. Orders placed before 12 PM PST ship same day from our San Diego warehouse. Contact us if you want to confirm current stock.

Are STP files and volume pricing available for the CIL208?

Yes. Contact Commonlands for volume pricing on the CIL208 and to request STP files plus mechanical drawings from our engineering team.

CIL208 is a 200-degree fisheye M12 lens with 0.9mm EFL, F/2.2, and the smallest image circle in the Commonlands fisheye lineup at 2.9mm. At 3g, it stays easy to package in very small camera modules. The 6G all-glass optical design resolves 4-5MP on 1/3.6" sensors such as the IMX226 and AR0821.

Distortion is -6% F-Θ, which puts the lens close to equidistant. That projection keeps software correction more manageable for doorbell cameras, in-cabin vehicle monitoring, and other systems where image-processing overhead has to stay low.

Two mechanical variants are available. M12A comes as CIL208-F2.2-M12A650 with a 650nm IRC filter or CIL208-F2.2-M12ANIR without a filter. M12B comes as CIL208-F2.2-M12B660 with a 660nm IRC filter or CIL208-F2.2-M12BNIR without a filter.

iDS uEye LE needs a custom mount. e-con Systems S-mount boards work with a 5-7mm holder, and Allied Vision Alvium plus FLIR Blackfly S board cameras need a custom adapter.

Orders placed before 12 PM PST ship same day from San Diego. STP files and mechanical drawings are available on request, and Commonlands optical engineers can help with volume pricing or integration support.
