We’ve produced a short guide detailing the key considerations when selecting a lens optimised for your vision application. Your vision lens selection process should involve identifying the target application needs and agreeing the key specifications to achieve this. These parameters include field of view, resolution (or size of the smallest detail or part to see or identify), working distance / range and depth of field. Once these four key specifications are known, it is much easier to select an optimised lens and camera.
