New lens calculator by Schneider-Kreuznach

We’re excited to introduce a new tool on our website: the Schneider-Kreuznach lens calculator.

This long-requested feature is designed to help customers independently configure the ideal optical system for their specific application. Whether you're planning a new machine vision setup or refining an existing one, our calculator makes it easy to find the right lens and accessory combination.

What the Calculator Offers:

By simply entering your sensor specifications, object size or desired magnification, and working distance, the calculator will instantly suggest suitable Schneider-Kreuznach lenses.

Key Features:

  • Input Your Parameters: Sensor size, object width/height, working distance, or magnification.
  • Mount & Filter Selection: Define your camera mount and optical filter needs.
  • Instant Lens Recommendations: View compatible lens options with calculated accessory requirements.
  • Detailed System Chains: See exactly which components are needed for a complete setup.
