Avatar Hi-g Lens for High-Speed Digital Cameras
![]()
|
The new AVATAR 10.5mm Hi-g lens is designed specifically for cameras with large digital image sensors, It features heavy duty mechanical design and construction for very Hi-g applications such as; crash testing, impact sled, airborne and related testing environments, An Avatar lens was recently tested on a Hi-g automotive sled in x, y and z axes in forward and reverse orientations. It was subjected to twelve separate test cycles at l00g's peak shock loads and average sustained loads of 70g's, A detailed post test lens inspection revealed no failure or discernable external or internal damage. Avatar optics feature high-efficiency multi-layer coatings with digital resolution that exceeds 6-million pixels, In addition, both focus and aperture rings feature 360° clamps locks.
|
A custom designed stainless-steel lens mount is provided for each camera. It replaces the standard lens plate supplied by the camera manufacturer, The Avatar lens is now attached to this new mount, which also incorporates a built in C-Mount. In addition, an optional heavy duty F-Mount Is available with positive lock that eliminates the traditional Nikon lens loose bayonet fit. An accessory Micrometer Diascope instrument can be used to measures the exact back-focus dimension of each camera. This calibration determines the necessary spacer shims to install between the steel mount and the camera housing. Thereafter, Infinity focus is achieved. Refer to the Micrometer Diascope data sheet for details.

This lens is designed to cover large mega-pixel CMOS image sensors & is large supplied with large flange mount described in the specifications. The pictured 10.5mm and 14mm lenses are the first of vive lenses, each having a large flange mount as described in the specifications. This wide-angle lens is rectilinear and corrected for distortion. |
For example, when used with a 24mm square image sensor, edge distortion is less than 2% and much less with smaller sensors. In addition, all optics feature high efficiency multi-lays coating with very high-resolution. Its ruggedized for use on automotive test sleds, full scale crash vehicles and other Hi-g application. |

14.0mm Lens
Specifications:
Aperture and focus locks are built into both lenses. |
| * Focus calibrations are not provided. This accommodates new generation CMOS cameras that have no defined dimension between the lens flange and the sensor's image plane. |
|
VIL also offers a limited selection of wide-angle, normal and telephoto lenses designed for high-shock and vibration environments. A few high quality fixed focal length "C" mount lenses are still available, these include: Schneider and Super Cinetar ll. Optional caged supports and ruggedizing make these lenses suitable for automotive, airborne and other shock & vibration environments. A broad ranged of zoom and fixed focal length lenses are available for 1/3" to 2/3" video formats. |
