M12 Wide-Angle Lenses
Photo to be provided by the client. No product or factory photo is shown on this page.
M12 wide-angle lenses pair the M12 family with a wide view, giving a broad picture from a small board camera or module. This page covers that pairing for buyers who need a wide view from a compact camera.
A wide view from a small camera suits jobs where one compact unit must watch a whole area: a room, a work area, a small hall or the inside of equipment. The trade-off is the same as for any wide view: more area covered, less detail per part of the scene, and the buyer must decide whether that trade suits the job.
What this pairing covers
This page discusses a wide view as a buyer requirement. Availability from Hangzhou Ai Ke Electronics Co., Ltd. is not established. Ask whether a suitable lens is available before ordering. It does not describe a particular model, and it does not state the width of view numerically, because no such detail is published in the material used for this site.
Buyers who need a wide view but not a board camera should read the wide-angle security and wide-angle CCTV pages instead. Buyers who need an M12 lens but not a wide view should read the other M12 pairing pages, such as macro, autofocus or telephoto.
Where this pairing is used
M12 wide-angle lenses are used in compact surveillance units that must watch a room or an area, in embedded vision setups that must see a whole work area, and in small devices where a single compact camera must give an overview. In each case the camera is small and the area is comparatively large, which is exactly the combination a wide view serves.
They are less suited to jobs where detail at a point matters, such as reading a mark or recognising a face at a distance. In those cases a narrower M12 pairing, or a different camera family, may serve better, and the inquiry should say what the picture must show.
What to confirm before ordering
Confirm the fitting against the buyer's board camera or module, confirm that the wide view suits the area and the detail the job needs, and confirm the model, specifications, minimum order quantity, lead time and price for the quantity required.
Documents should be confirmed at the same time. Certificates available upon request. No certificate detail is stated on this site.
Frequently asked questions
Does wide-angle mean the camera sees everything?
No. It means a broad view from one position. Blind spots behind the camera and detail limits still apply.
How is this different from a general wide-angle lens?
This pairing is within the M12 family, for board cameras and small modules. General wide-angle pages cover CCTV and security cameras.
What should my inquiry include?
The board camera or module, the area to be covered, and what the picture must show.
