The very competitively priced CS-mount lenses, on the other hand, are exceptionally light and compact. With image formats of up to 1“ and an optical resolution of 5MP, the lenses can be used in conjunction with a variety of CCD and CMOS sensors.
The 5MP lenses are delivered in a compact, robust metal housing making them well suited to industrial applications. In cases where the working distance is less than the minimum object distance (MOD) of the lens, The Imaging Source offers a range of moderately-priced Extension Rings and Tubes.
These features make the lenses especially practical for measurement and imaging tasks in automation, quality control, medical, logistics, sciences and security.
