American Dynamics offers a wide range of lenses ensuring
that, no matter the application, there is a lens available to suit
your need. All of our high quality, compact lenses are specially
designed to deliver the best picture quality possible when used
with the comprehensive line of American Dynamics cameras.
Auto Iris Lenses
Designed to produce consistent video signals from cameras
in applications with varying light levels, American Dynamics
auto iris lenses offer high contrast, fast signal response, color
corrected optics, and low geometric distortion. Auto iris lenses
enable reliable monitoring in areas where light levels are
unpredictable.
This series of auto iris lenses relies upon the circuitry contained
within suitably equipped cameras that produce a DC output.
This circuitry will, in turn, adjust the lens iris accordingly. Auto
iris lenses, combined with American Dynamics cameras, offer a
value-driven alternative to traditional auto iris lenses.
Manual Iris Lenses
Our manual iris lenses provide a solution for applications
where scene and lighting requirements are relatively stable.
This provides a budget-friendly option for use with electronic
shutter-equipped cameras.
Modern CCD imagers place new demands on lens performance
in terms of resolution, contrast, and geometric distortion. All
American Dynamics manual iris lenses provide high contrast,
fast signal response, and high quality color-corrected optics.
IR Corrected, Auto Iris Lenses
American Dynamics infrared lenses are designed to
compensate for variations between infrared and visible light
conditions providing you with consistently sharp images in a
variety of applications. When used with American Dynamics
True Day/Night cameras these lenses provide high performance
video surveillance.
The built-in slip mount mechanism enables you to rotate
the lenses even after mounting on cameras for the ultimate
in flexibility. The special multi-layer coating design prevents
transmittance fall-off in the infrared range and is applied to
minimize ghosting and flare typically caused by backlit scenes.
This provides superior picture performance even in dimly lit
conditions or when infrared illumination is in use.
