Gpixel GMAX0505 · 26.2MP 1.1" global-shutter CMOS image sensor

GMAX0505 Sensor Specifications & Compatible M12 and C-Mount Lenses

GMAX0505 image sensor with a recommended Commonlands lens and calculated field of view

The GMAX0505 is a Gpixel 1.1" global-shutter CMOS image sensor from the GMAX family, for high-end machine vision, metrology, and large-format inspection. It captures 5120x5120 (26.2 MP) at up to 150 fps on 2.5 um pixels across an 18.10 mm diagonal over Sub-LVDS in color / mono. Commonlands pairs it with M12 Lenses that cover the 18.10 mm image circle and publishes the calculated field of view for every option.

Compatible Commonlands Lenses for the GMAX0505 with Calculated Field of View

Each field of view below is calculated for the GMAX0505 active area (12.8 × 12.8 mm) from Commonlands’ per-lens field-of-view data, which reflects each lens’s real distortion rather than a focal-length-only estimate. Alongside the horizontal, vertical, and diagonal field of view, each row lists the lens aperture (F#), distortion, ingress protection, total track length (TTL), and rated resolution, so you can shortlist on optics and mechanics in one pass. Coverage shows whether the lens image circle covers the 18.1 mm sensor diagonal. Only lenses that cover the full diagonal are listed. Run exact working-distance and object-size numbers through the field of view calculator.

Engineering picks for the GMAX0505

  1. Best ~30° HFoV: 25mm C-Mount Lens (CIL554) (25 mm, f/2.6). Why: the closest covering option to 30° horizontal, chosen for tight inspection framing and long read ranges. Field of view on the GMAX0505: 28.7° H × 28.7° V (39.8° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (rectilinear estimate, computed 2026-07-02).
  2. Best ~60° HFoV: 12mm C-Mount Lens (CIL552) (12 mm, f/2.8). Why: the closest covering option to 60° horizontal, chosen for general-purpose machine-vision framing. Field of view on the GMAX0505: 56.1° H × 56.1° V (74.1° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (rectilinear estimate, computed 2026-07-02).
  3. Longest reach: 75mm C-Mount Lens (CIL557) (75 mm, f/3). Why: the tightest covering field of view for detail and stand-off work. Field of view on the GMAX0505: 9.8° H × 9.8° V (13.8° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (rectilinear estimate, computed 2026-07-02).

This larger format pairs with the C-Mount Lens collection. Covering lenses below run from 12 mm to 75 mm focal length and span 9.8° to 56.1° horizontal field of view on the GMAX0505 active area.

Covers in the table means the lens image circle is at least as large as the 18.1 mm sensor diagonal, so the corners are not cropped. Need a focal length or coverage that is not listed here? Ask our engineers to confirm a match.

How to choose a lens for the GMAX0505

Start from the field of view your application needs, then read across to the focal length that produces it on the GMAX0505. Confirm the lens image circle covers the 18.1 mm diagonal so the corners are not cropped, and check the lens resolution is rated for 26.2 MP or higher so it resolves the 2.5 µm pixels. For exact working-distance and object-size numbers, run the figures through the Commonlands field of view calculator.
