Telephoto Zoom for Raspberry Pi HQ Camera

The KEHIPI 8-50mm C-mount zoom lens attaches to the Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera using the supplied C-CS adapter. It provides a variable focal length from 8 mm to 50 mm with manual focus and aperture rings. The optical format is 1/2.3 inch and the maximum aperture is F1.4. Dimensions are 40×68.3 mm and weight is 148 g.

Suited for distance work; not for wide scenes

This lens suits users who need a telephoto reach up to 50 mm on the HQ Camera, giving a horizontal field of view that narrows to 5.35° at the long end. It is less useful for buyers who want a wider angle of view than 45° at the short end or who need a closer minimum focus distance than 0.5 m.

Variable focal length decides fit

The single specification that determines whether this is the right part is the 8-50 mm zoom range combined with the 1/2.3 inch optical format and F1.4 aperture. These figures define the achievable field of view and light-gathering capability on the HQ Camera sensor.

Questions about this item

What is the thread size for attaching a filter to the 8-50mm C-Mount Zoom Lens?

The lens uses an M37.5*P0.5 thread size for UV filters. A ring filter adapter can also be used if the exact size is hard to find.

How do I attach this lens to the Raspberry Pi HQ Camera, and what step is often missed?

The CS-mount on the Raspberry Pi HQ Camera must be adapted using the included C-CS adapter before the C-mount lens is screwed on. Skipping the adapter prevents a secure fit.

Does the lens require an IR filter, and what maintenance might be needed later?

The lens does not come with an IR filter. You may need to add a UV filter using the M37.5*P0.5 thread to protect the front element from dust and scratches over time.
