● 2″ VM series is rated at 50 MP and can cover sensors with a diameter of 32mm or less. To ruggedize and increase durability, the large format VM lenses incorporate a unique locking switch mechanism that prevents thumb screws from falling off due to repetitive use, vibration, or shock. The VM series are ideal for applications such as line scan, flat panel display inspection, and aerial photography.
