Image Quality of a Telecentric with the Flexibility of a Liquid Lens

M12 or S-Mount lenses are a type of compact imaging lens used in space-constrained applications.

Edmund Optics® manufactures several different types of ruggedized imaging lens assemblies.

What is an aspheric lens? In what applications are aspheric lenses used?

Optotune Focus-Tunable lenses feature a liquid polymer substrate with continuous focusability.

Fixed focal length, zoom, and macro lenses are all variable magnification lenses. Learn more at Edmund Optics.

Telecentric lenses eliminate perspective and measurement error, and are ideal for measurement and gauging applications.

Cinema lenses designed to create content tailored for online streaming utilize aspheres to shoot with a shallow depth of field while maintaining quality.

Imaging lens performance can be enhanced with the use of liquid lenses. Learn more at Edmund Optics.
