The Tamron 13VM286 is a manual CS-mount lens designed for 1/3-inch CCD cameras. The 2.8mm focal length gives very wide 80° angle of view. At 6mm it shows 44°. Two aspherical lens elements limit distortion and provide corner to corner sharpness. Its very fast f/1.2 maximum aperture allows it to be used in low light areas for color images.
