GMAX0505 sensor specifications and
compatible M12 lenses & C-mount lenses

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 matches M12 Lenses and C-Mount Lenses to its image circle and lists the calculated horizontal, vertical, and diagonal field of view for each.

Compatible Commonlands lenses for the GMAX0505. Field of View calculated with Distortion.

Each field of view below is calculated for the GMAX0505 active area (12.8 × 12.8 mm) using our MCP server and Field of view calculator. The rectilinear formula FoV = 2 × arctan(dimension ÷ (2 × focal length)) is incorrect for many lenses as it doesn't include distortion. Coverage shows whether the lens image circle covers the 18.1 mm sensor diagonal. Fisheye and f-theta lenses do not follow the rectilinear formula, so their entries link to the product page for the mapped field of view.

Engineering picks for the GMAX0505

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

Commonlands offers 6 lens options for the GMAX0505: C-Mount Lenses from 12 mm to 75 mm focal length, spanning 9.8° to 56.1° horizontal field of view on the GMAX0505 active area.

Coverage key: covers = lens image circle ≥ sensor diagonal; crops = image circle smaller than the diagonal (expect vignetting at the corners); verify = image circle not published for this lens — ask our engineers to confirm coverage.

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.
