Frequently asked questions
What sensors does the CIL361 6mm M12 lens support?
The CIL361 supports 1/2.5 inch sensors up to 5MP at 2.2μm pixel pitch. It is designed for sensors like the OmniVision OX05B1S and similar 1/2.5 inch imagers.
Is the CIL361 IR corrected for day-night use?
Yes. The CIL361 is IR corrected, so visible and near-IR wavelengths stay in focus without a mechanical refocus step between day and night modes. You should order CIL361-F1.8-M12ANIR if the system needs full-spectrum response.
What cameras are mechanically compatible with the CIL361?
The CIL361 fits e-con Systems S-mount boards with a 10-13mm tall holder, and it also works with Allied Vision Alvium, FLIR Blackfly S, iDS uEye LE, The Imaging Source M12, and Basler Dart cameras. The Commonlands CLA024 lens holder is the standard mounting option.
How much does the CIL361 M12 lens weigh?
The CIL361 weighs 5.1g. That low mass works well in drones, robots, and other embedded platforms that do not have much room for heavy optics.
What distortion does the CIL361 6mm lens have?
The CIL361 has -7% F-Θ distortion and -10% TV distortion at the 7.2mm image circle. That level is acceptable for security and navigation, but it is not the lens for precision measurement.
Does the CIL361 ship same day from the US?
Yes. Orders placed before 12 PM PST ship the same day from San Diego. Contact Commonlands if you need volume pricing or STP mechanical drawings.
