About the following tables
Accuracy
•
The sensor area may be larger than the effective optical area.
•
Consider tolerances of the lenses’ nominal and actual focal lengths.
Focal lengths
Focal length increments vary for the different sensor sizes.
Distance
Distance of the object to the first principal plane of the lens.
Shading with certain lenses
Lenses with
short focal lengths
may show shading at the edges of the image
because of optical vignetting.
Microlenses
on the sensor pixels can increase
shading.
For demanding applications, we suggest testing camera and lens to find a suitable
setup. In doubt, please contact Allied Vision.
