Product description: M2508ZH02 M12 8 mm 1/2.5'' lens - for ArduCam cameras - ArduCam LN002
The ArduCam M2508ZH02 is a professional M12 mount lens designed for users seeking greater control over image framing than standard cameras. With an 8mm focal length and viewing angles adapted to various sensor formats, it enables precise shot positioning – both for long-distance shots and for detailed shots. The lens is compatible with camera modules for the Rapberry Pi and Arduino , such as the ArduCam B0031 and B0103, and thanks to IR filtering, it's ideal for daytime applications with accurate color reproduction.
Attention!
The lens holder is not included in the set - it must be ordered separately.
Typically, lenses with a wider field of view require shorter holders, which means that if you have problems focusing, you may need to replace your holder with a different model.

The lens is compatible with camera modules for Rapberry Pi and Arduino.
Main features of the lens
- M12 standard: universal mount compatible with many ArduCam, Raspberry Pi and Arduino cameras
- 8mm focal length: allows for a narrow field of view, ideal for capturing details
- Viewing angle (1/2.5''): 50° (D), 40° (H), 30° (V) - ideal for high-resolution cameras
- IR filter 650nm: blocks infrared radiation for better colors in daylight
- Compact dimensions: only 14 x 16.9 x 13 mm and weight 7 g - easy installation in confined spaces
Practical applications
The ArduCam M2508ZH02 lens is used in computer vision, monitoring, robotics, image analysis, and digital microscopy . Raspberry Pi users can use it for precise framing, for example, when identifying license plates or capturing detailed visual data. Combined with the appropriate mount and camera module, it provides a flexible tool for advanced projects.
