IMX485 sensor specifications and
compatible M12 lenses & C-mount lenses

IMX485 is a Sony 1/1.2-inch rolling-shutter CMOS image sensor in the STARVIS low-light family. It delivers 4K from a 3840x2160, 8.3 MP array on 2.9 um pixels at 60 fps over MIPI CSI-2, in color across a 12.78 mm diagonal. Commonlands matches M12 Lenses to its image circle and reports the calculated horizontal, vertical, and diagonal field of view for each focal length.

Compatible Commonlands lenses for the IMX485. Field of View calculated with Distortion.

Each field of view below is calculated for the IMX485 active area (11.14 × 6.26 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 12.78 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 IMX485

  1. Best ~30° HFoV: 25mm C-Mount Lens (CIL554) (25 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 IMX485: 25° H × 14° V (29° diagonal); image circle covers the full sensor; verified 2026-07-02.
  2. Best ~60° HFoV: 8.5mm C-Mount Lens (CIL508) (8.5 mm, f/2.4). Why: the closest covering option to 60° horizontal, chosen for general-purpose machine-vision framing. Field of view on the IMX485: 69° H × 41° V (77° diagonal); image circle covers the full sensor; verified 2026-07-02.
  3. Best ~120° HFoV: 4.9mm C-Mount Lens (CIL505) (4.9 mm, f/2.2). Why: the closest covering option to 120° horizontal, chosen for wide navigation and room-scale coverage. Field of view on the IMX485: 136° H × 74° V (159° diagonal); image circle covers the full sensor; verified 2026-07-02.

Commonlands offers 9 lens options for the IMX485: M12 Lenses and C-Mount Lenses from 1.3 mm to 75 mm focal length, spanning 8° to 184° horizontal field of view on the IMX485 active area.

How to choose a lens for the IMX485

Start from the field of view your application needs, then read across to the focal length that produces it on the IMX485. Confirm the lens image circle covers the 12.78 mm diagonal so the corners are not cropped, and check the lens resolution is rated for 8.3 MP or higher so it resolves the 2.9 µm pixels. For exact working-distance and object-size numbers, run the figures through the Commonlands field of view calculator.
