OX12A10 sensor specifications and
compatible M12 lenses & C-mount lenses
OX12A10 is an OmniVision 2/3-inch rolling-shutter CMOS image sensor from the TheiaCel family. It delivers 12 MP at 4624x2600 with 2.1um pixels and 30 fps over a MIPI CSI-2 interface, projecting onto an 11.14mm diagonal. Commonlands matches M12 Lenses to this image circle and reports the calculated horizontal, vertical, and diagonal field of view for your working distance.

Compatible Commonlands lenses for the OX12A10. Field of View calculated with Distortion.
Each field of view below is calculated for the OX12A10 active area (9.71 × 5.46 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 11.14 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 OX12A10
- Best ~30° HFoV: 16mm C-Mount Lens (CIL553) (16 mm, f/2.8). Why: the closest covering option to 30° horizontal, chosen for tight inspection framing and long read ranges. Field of view on the OX12A10: 34° H × 19° V (38° diagonal); image circle covers the full sensor; verified 2026-07-02.
- Best ~60° HFoV: 8.5mm C-Mount Lens (CIL508) (8.5 mm, f/2.4). Why: the closest covering option to 60° horizontal, chosen for general-purpose machine-vision framing. Field of view on the OX12A10: 61° H × 36° V (69° diagonal); image circle covers the full sensor; verified 2026-07-02.
- Best ~120° HFoV: 4.9mm C-Mount Lens (CIL505) (4.9 mm, f/2.2). Why: the closest covering option to 120° horizontal, chosen for wide navigation and room-scale coverage. Field of view on the OX12A10: 117° H × 65° V (136° diagonal); image circle covers the full sensor; verified 2026-07-02.
- Best low light: 8mm C-Mount Lens (CIL521) (8 mm, f/1.5). Why: the fastest covering aperture (f/1.5), which collects the most light per pixel. Field of view on the OX12A10: 63° H × 38° V (70° diagonal); image circle covers the full sensor; verified 2026-07-02.

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 OX12A10
Start from the field of view your application needs, then read across to the focal length that produces it on the OX12A10. Confirm the lens image circle covers the 11.14 mm diagonal so the corners are not cropped, and check the lens resolution is rated for 12.0 MP or higher so it resolves the 2.1 µm pixels. For exact working-distance and object-size numbers, run the figures through the Commonlands field of view calculator.
