Lenses: Focal length vs. field of view
About S-Mount lenses
Alvium S-Mount models have no filter. For typical applications, we recommend
using S-Mount lenses with an integrated IR cut filter for a better image quality.
Read Mounting and focusing S-Mount lenses on page 266 to avoid damage when
using S-Mount lenses.
