16mm C-Mount lens for up to 1.1" sensors such as IMX304 and IMX253

CIL523 is a 16mm C-mount lens for 2/3" sensors at 5MP resolution with 3.45µm pixel pitch. The aperture adjusts from F/1.4 to F/11.5. The lens gives you a 67° field of view on a 2/3" sensor, and distortion stays at -0.1% from rectilinear across the 11mm image circle.

That combination is hard to find in a wide C-mount lens. Most 16mm lenses give up geometric accuracy when they get this wide, but this one stays at -0.1%, so you can inspect a large area and still trust the geometry. That makes the lens a good fit for PCB inspection, packaging line verification, and robotic guidance.

F/1.4 gives you strong light collection for high-speed imaging. The all-glass construction keeps weight at 64g, and the lens uses an M30.5x0.5 filter thread. The working distance runs from 150mm to infinity. The lens is compatible with sensors like the Sony IMX304 and IMX253, and the larger image circle also covers sensors up to 1.1" format.

The lens uses standard C-mount threading at 1"-32 TPI with 17.526mm flange distance. model your field of view and check depth of field.

The lens ships same day from San Diego before 12 PM PST. Volume pricing is available at 50+ units. You can contact our engineering team for application support.
