AIDA Imaging CS-6.0F – 6mm Fixed CS Mount Lens GEN Series

Product Overview

The AIDA Imaging CS-6.0F is a 6mm fixed focal length CS-mount lens from the AIDA GEN series, designed for HD cameras with 1.3MP to 5MP imaging sensors and a 1/2.5″ optical format. The 6mm focal length produces a noticeably wider field of view than the 12mm CS-12.0F, typically delivering a horizontal angle of view in the 47°–55° range on 1/2.5″ sensors — a comfortable mid-wide perspective that is well suited to lecture capture, conference coverage, and single-camera broadcast setups where the subject fills a moderate portion of the frame. The CS-6.0F is a direct-fit upgrade for any AIDA Imaging HD POV camera with a CS-mount body.

Product Description

The GEN series designation means the CS-6.0F has been optically matched and calibrated against AIDA’s own HD camera sensor characteristics rather than being a generic surveillance-grade lens. Sharpness, chromatic aberration control, and distortion correction are tuned for the full sensor resolution of AIDA GEN series cameras, ensuring the 6mm focal length renders fine detail cleanly across the entire frame — not just at the center. The fixed iris is set within a range that corresponds to the native exposure behavior of HD sensors, so the camera’s automatic or manual electronic iris controls exposure without the need to also manage a mechanical iris ring.

Installation is straightforward: thread the CS-6.0F directly onto the camera body’s CS-mount port, set focus via the manual focus ring at the intended subject distance, and secure the focus lock. The lens ships ready to use without additional adapters or back-focus shims for standard AIDA GEN series camera bodies. For installations that require a wider perspective than the factory-supplied lens provides, or where an original lens has been damaged and needs replacement, the CS-6.0F represents a practical and cost-effective solution that maintains full optical compatibility with the camera system.

Key Features

• 6mm Fixed Focal Length — Mid-wide field of view (~47°–55° HFOV on 1/2.5" sensors) for room coverage and lecture capture
• GEN Series Optimized — Calibrated against AIDA GEN HD camera sensor characteristics for full-resolution output
• 1/2.5″ Optical Format — Full image circle coverage on AIDA GEN series 1/2.5″ sensors without vignetting
• HD Megapixel Optics — Tuned for 1.3MP to 5MP sensor densities with consistent edge-to-edge sharpness
• Fixed Iris Range — Pre-set iris matched to HD camera exposure behavior; no mechanical iris ring to manage
• Manual Focus Ring — Simple focus adjustment at installation; locks reliably once set
• CS-Mount Standard — Direct no-adapter fit on AIDA GEN series and compatible CS-mount HD cameras
• Wider Perspective than CS-12.0F — Approximately twice the horizontal field of view of the 12mm GEN lens for broader coverage
