About this item

The Arducam 50mm C-Mount Lens is a high-quality telephoto lens designed to work seamlessly with the Raspberry Pi High Quality (HQ) Camera. Featuring a 50mm focal length, this lens offers a narrow field of view and high magnification, making it ideal for applications requiring close-up shots, detailed imaging, or long-distance object capture—such as surveillance, industrial inspection, wildlife photography, or scientific imaging. The lens supports manual focus and comes equipped with an adjustable aperture (iris), allowing precise control over depth of field and light exposure. This is particularly useful in varying lighting conditions or when working with objects at different distances. The lens uses the standard C-mount interface, and with the included CS-to-C adapter ring (when required), it fits directly onto the Raspberry Pi HQ Camera without modification. Built with multi-element glass optics in a robust metal housing, this lens ensures excellent image quality with minimal distortion and chromatic aberration. Whether you're a maker, researcher, or developer, the Arducam 50mm lens provides a professional-level optical tool for your Raspberry Pi HQ Camera projects.
