Frequently asked questions
What sensors does the CIL329 2.8mm M12 lens support?
The CIL329 supports 1/2.5 inch and 1/2.7 inch sensors including the ON Semiconductor AR0230. It resolves 3MP at 2.2µm pixel pitch across a 6.8mm image circle.
What is the IP rating of the CIL329?
The CIL329 is IP69K rated. That standard handles high-pressure hot water jets and steam cleaning, and the M12A barrel also carries IP67 sealing with BBAR coating.
How wide is the field of view on the CIL329?
The CIL329 gives 155° field of view at the 6.5mm image circle. That is wide enough for surround-view automotive cameras, security monitoring, and robotics navigation without moving all the way to a fisheye lens.
Is the CIL329 optimized for HDR sensors?
Yes. The CIL329 uses a stray-light optimized optical design that helps HDR sensors like the AR0230 by reducing internal reflections that cut dynamic range.
Which cameras are compatible with the CIL329 M12 lens?
The CIL329 is mechanically compatible with the Commonlands CLA021 holder with a 9-12mm tall mount and with iDS uEye LE cameras. Allied Vision Alvium, FLIR Blackfly S, and The Imaging Source boards are not compatible, and Basler Dart compatibility should be confirmed with Basler.
Does the CIL329 ship same day from the US?
Yes. Commonlands ships all in-stock lenses same day from San Diego, California for orders placed before 12 PM PST.
