Frequently asked questions
What sensors does the CIL562 8mm C-mount lens support?
The CIL562 is listed for 1/1.7 inch sensors up to 12MP, including the Sony IMX678. The focal length is 8mm and the aperture is F/2.4.
What is the field of view of the CIL562?
The CIL562 covers 60° at its 9.3mm image circle. Use the Commonlands field of view calculator to find the angle for your specific sensor.
Is the CIL562 an M12 lens?
No. The CIL562 is a C-mount lens. Use it with cameras that support the 1 inch-32 C-mount thread and the standard 17.526mm flange distance.
How much distortion does the CIL562 have?
Distortion is about -0.2%, which is very low for an 8mm lens. That helps when reading marks or gauging near the edge of the frame.
Does the CIL562 include an IR cut filter?
No. The listed part number is the ANIR version, which means without filter.
Does the CIL562 ship same day from the US?
Yes. In-stock orders placed before 12 PM PST ship same day from the Commonlands San Diego warehouse.
