This is CS lens for the Raspberry Pi HQ camera. With this lens, you can get a sharp focus for all objects from 30 cm and more, thanks to a fixed iris and special optics construction. This is a notably different behavior from the 16mm lens with manual iris. With this HiPi16M5F16 lens, you'll focus your efforts on the artistic component of your shots, but not on adjusting settings for each new scene. It's also ideal for surveillance or scientific applications. Take a look at our sample shots in the image gallery!
