HIKROBOT MVL-MF1228M-8MP — Lenses
12 mm, F2.8–F16, 2/3″, C-mount

The MVL-MF1228M-8MP steps up to a 12 mm focal length within the 8 MP FA series, narrowing the view from the 8 mm model while keeping the same F2.8-F16 aperture range. It carries forward the series’ ultra-high-resolution imaging and ultra-low distortion, plus support for ultra-short working distances — a feature worth noting for a lens still short enough to sit close to the target despite the tighter framing.

Key features
- Ultra-high resolution and consistency of image clarity
- Ultra-low distortion and higher relative illumination
- Achromatic optical system design for better image performance with color cameras
- Supports ultra-short working distance with good optical performance
- Compact design with excellent vibration resistance and high/low temperature performance
Where it is used
A general-purpose choice for 8 MP inspection cells needing a bit more detail per pixel than the 8 mm lens offers, without moving the camera far back — component inspection, code reading, and assembly checks where both resolution and a reasonably compact mounting distance matter.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
Is this lens right for your application?
Let us determine focal length, sensor size, working distance and field of view together, based on your application. FST is HIKROBOT’s distributor in Türkiye; product selection, commissioning and after-sales support all come from one source.
The data herein may vary based on the environment, objects and other various factors, and HIKROBOT shall not assume the consequences arising therefrom.
