Sony IMX548 · 5.1MP 1/1.8" global-shutter CMOS image sensor
IMX548 Sensor Specifications & Compatible M12 and C-Mount Lenses
IMX548 is a Sony 1/1.8" global-shutter CMOS image sensor in the Pregius S family for distortion-free machine vision. It delivers 5.1 MP at 2464x2064 on 2.74 um pixels across an 8.81 mm diagonal at 114.8 fps over SLVS. Commonlands matches M12 Lenses to its 8.81 mm image circle with the calculated horizontal, vertical, and diagonal field of view, and offers C-Mount Lenses for the same sensor.

Compatible Commonlands Lenses for the IMX548 with Calculated Field of View
Each field of view below is calculated for the IMX548 active area (6.75 × 5.66 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 8.81 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 IMX548
- Best ~30° HFoV: 12mm C-Mount Lens (CIL552) (12 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 IMX548: 31° H × 27° V (40° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
- Best ~60° HFoV: Low Distortion 5.9mm M12 Lens (CIL059) (5.9 mm, f/1.7). Why: the closest covering option to 60° horizontal, chosen for general-purpose machine-vision framing. Field of view on the IMX548: 61° H × 52° V (76° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
- Best ~120° HFoV: Wide-Angle 3.5mm M12 Lens (CIL334) (3.5 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 IMX548: 116° H × 96° V (159° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).
- Lowest distortion: Low Distortion 4.2mm M12 Lens (CIL042) (4.2 mm, f/1.9). Why: measured -1% TV distortion, the flattest image among covering lenses. Field of view on the IMX548: 78° H × 68° V (93° 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 IMX548: 46° H × 39° V (58° diagonal). The image circle covers the full sensor (verified 2026-07-02).

Covers in the table means the lens image circle is at least as large as the 8.81 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 IMX548
Start from the field of view your application needs, then read across to the focal length that produces it on the IMX548. Confirm the lens image circle covers the 8.81 mm diagonal so the corners are not cropped, and check the lens resolution is rated for 5.1 MP or higher so it resolves the 2.74 µm pixels. For exact working-distance and object-size numbers, run the figures through the Commonlands field of view calculator.
