The Marshall CS-3816-8MP-V2 is a CS-mount varifocal lens with a 3.8–16 mm focal range. It allows framing to be set at the camera installation and uses DC auto iris with a compatible camera.
Marshall CS-3816-8MP-V2 Features
- Variable focal length for framing. The 3.8–16 mm range lets the installer adjust scene coverage without moving the camera mount. The resulting viewing angle depends on the camera sensor, so focal length alone does not specify coverage.
- CS mount and 8 MP rating. The lens is specified for a CS mount with a 8 MP resolution rating. Check sensor coverage as well as the physical mount when selecting it for a camera body.
- Automatic iris connection. Four-pin DC auto iris provides aperture control through a compatible camera. This allows the iris to respond to the camera's exposure control instead of relying solely on a fixed aperture.
- Working distance and aperture. The listed minimum object distance is 0.5 m, with aperture specified as F1.4 wide to F1.6 telephoto. These limits help determine whether the lens suits a close demonstration or a more distant scene.
