OmniVision OV2311 · 2.1MP 1/2.9" global-shutter CMOS image sensor
OV2311 Sensor Specifications & Compatible M12 and C-Mount Lenses
OV2311 is an OmniVision 1/2.9" global-shutter CMOS image sensor in the OmniPixel3-GS line, with NIR sensitivity that suits driver monitoring and eye tracking. It reads a 1600x1300 monochrome array on 3 um pixels at 60 fps over MIPI CSI-2 or DVP. Commonlands matches M12 Lenses to its 6.18mm image circle and reports the calculated horizontal, vertical, and diagonal field of view.

Compatible Commonlands Lenses for the OV2311 with Calculated Field of View
Each field of view below is calculated for the OV2311 active area (4.8 × 3.9 mm) from Commonlands’ per-lens field-of-view data, which reflects each lens’s real distortion rather than a focal-length-only estimate. Alongside the horizontal, vertical, and diagonal field of view, each row lists the lens aperture (F#), distortion, ingress protection, total track length (TTL), and rated resolution, so you can shortlist on optics and mechanics in one pass. Coverage shows whether the lens image circle covers the 6.18 mm sensor diagonal. Only lenses that cover the full diagonal are listed. Run exact working-distance and object-size numbers through the field of view calculator.
Engineering picks for the OV2311
- Best ~30° HFoV: 9.1mm M12 Lens (CIL092) (9.1 mm, f/2.6). Why: the closest covering option to 30° horizontal, chosen for tight inspection framing and long read ranges. Field of view on the OV2311: 30° H × 24° V (38° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
- Best ~60° HFoV: Low Distortion 4.2mm M12 Lens (CIL042) (4.2 mm, f/1.9). Why: the closest covering option to 60° horizontal, chosen for general-purpose machine-vision framing. Field of view on the OV2311: 60° H × 50° V (73° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
- Best ~120° HFoV: Fisheye 2.3mm M12 Lens (CIL292) (2.3 mm, f/2.1). Why: the closest covering option to 120° horizontal, chosen for wide navigation and room-scale coverage. Field of view on the OV2311: 120° H × 97° V (154° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
- Lowest distortion: Low Distortion 4.4mm M12 Lens (CIL043) (4.4 mm, f/3.2). Why: measured -0.5% TV distortion, the flattest image among covering lenses. Field of view on the OV2311: 57° H × 48° V (71° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
- Best low light: 8mm C-Mount Lens (CIL521) (8 mm, f/1.5). Why: the fastest covering aperture (f/1.5), which collects the most light per pixel. Field of view on the OV2311: 33° H × 27° V (42° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
Browse the M12 Lens collection and the C-Mount Lens collection for the OV2311. Covering lenses below run from 0.8 mm to 100 mm focal length and produce 3° to 195° horizontal field of view on its active area.
Covers in the table means the lens image circle is at least as large as the 6.18 mm sensor diagonal, so the corners are not cropped. Need a focal length or coverage that is not listed here? Ask our engineers to confirm a match.
How to choose a lens for the OV2311
Start from the field of view your application needs, then read across to the focal length that produces it on the OV2311. Confirm the lens image circle covers the 6.18 mm diagonal so the corners are not cropped, and check the lens resolution is rated for 2.1 MP or higher so it resolves the 3.0 µm pixels. For exact working-distance and object-size numbers, run the figures through the Commonlands field of view calculator.
