Compact S-mount (M12) lenses
The M12 thread (S-mount) covers optics for embedded cameras and code readers where space is measured in millimetres. Focal lengths from 3.37 to 25 mm: short ones give a wide angle for close-up work, longer ones keep a normal field of view inside a tight housing.

How to choose
S-mount focusing is done by turning the lens in its thread, so after setup it is locked with a nut — otherwise vibration will drift the focus. Wide-angle versions show more distortion than longer ones, but the actual figure is given per part number — check it if you measure from the image.
