OV9281 sensor specifications and
compatible M12 lenses & C-mount lenses
OV9281 is an OmniVision 1/4-inch global-shutter CMOS image sensor in the OmniPixel3-GS line, with NIR response for high-speed mono capture under IR light. It is widely used in Arducam and OEM global-shutter camera modules for Raspberry Pi and machine vision. It runs a 1280x800 monochrome array on 3 um pixels at 120 fps over MIPI CSI-2 or DVP. Commonlands matches M12 Lenses to its 4.53mm image circle and reports the calculated horizontal, vertical, and diagonal field of view.

Compatible Commonlands lenses for the OV9281. Field of View calculated with Distortion.
Each field of view below is calculated for the OV9281 active area (3.84 × 2.4 mm) using our MCP server and Field of view calculator. The rectilinear formula FoV = 2 × arctan(dimension ÷ (2 × focal length)) is incorrect for many lenses as it doesn't include distortion. Coverage shows whether the lens image circle covers the 4.53 mm sensor diagonal. Fisheye and f-theta lenses do not follow the rectilinear formula, so their entries link to the product page for the mapped field of view.
Engineering picks for the OV9281
- Best ~30° HFoV: 7.2mm M12 Lens (CIL872) (7.2 mm, f/2.8). Why: the closest covering option to 30° horizontal, chosen for tight inspection framing and long read ranges. Field of view on the OV9281: 29.9° H × 18.9° V (34.9° diagonal); image circle covers the full sensor; rectilinear estimate, computed 2026-07-02.
- Best ~60° HFoV: Low Distortion 3mm M12 Lens (CIL030) (3 mm, f/2.1). Why: the closest covering option to 60° horizontal, chosen for general-purpose machine-vision framing. Field of view on the OV9281: 65.2° H × 43.6° V (74.1° diagonal); image circle covers the full sensor; rectilinear estimate, computed 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 OV9281: 47.1° H × 30.5° V (54.5° diagonal); image circle covers the full sensor; rectilinear estimate, computed 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 OV9281: 27° H × 17.1° V (31.6° diagonal); image circle covers the full sensor; rectilinear estimate, computed 2026-07-02.
- Compact low-cost pick: Telephoto 16mm M12 Lens (CIL160) (16 mm, f/1.9). Why: the lowest-priced covering M12 barrel ($15). Field of view on the OV9281: 13.7° H × 8.6° V (16.1° diagonal); image circle covers the full sensor; rectilinear estimate, computed 2026-07-02.
Commonlands offers 42 lens options for the OV9281: M12 Lenses and C-Mount Lenses from 1.8 mm to 100 mm focal length, spanning 2.2° to 93.7° horizontal field of view on the OV9281 active area.

How to choose a lens for the OV9281
Start from the field of view your application needs, then read across to the focal length that produces it on the OV9281. Confirm the lens image circle covers the 4.53 mm diagonal so the corners are not cropped, and check the lens resolution is rated for 1.0 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.
Sourcing a MIPI camera module around the OV9281? Commonlands can provide customized MIPI modules with our lenses; MoQs apply. Commonlands provides M12 lenses and C-mount optics and ships from San Diego, with same-day shipping for in-stock lenses ordered by 12 PM PST. We also assemble and align lens-to-sensor modules.
