Large Format Lenses

What Are Large Format Lenses?

Large format lenses are designed for applications that require exceptional image quality, precision optics, and high-resolution performance. These lenses support large image sensors, making them ideal for industrial inspection, scientific research, and high-end imaging applications. They offer superior light sensitivity, reduced optical distortion, and enhanced depth of field, making them the preferred choice for demanding imaging environments.

Large format lenses are built for projects that require maximum optical precision and support for bigger sensor formats like APS-C, full-frame, and medium-format. Their larger image circles ensure excellent sharpness, reduced vignetting, and outstanding light sensitivity – ideal for metrology, scientific instruments, and high-speed inspection.
