The Goobuy 110° 2.8mm F1.0 Night Vision M12 Lens is an ultra-bright wide-angle lens designed for FPV night cameras, starlight imaging devices, surveillance systems, and embedded low-light vision modules that require maximum light sensitivity and excellent field coverage
Product Overview
The Goobuy 2.8mm F1.0 M12 night vision lens is engineered for FPV night cameras, UAV inspection payloads, robotics vision, and industrial substation patrol systems. With an ultra-bright F1.0 aperture and wide 110° field of view, this lens captures more light in starlight conditions, making it an excellent starlight M12 lens for 1/2.8 sensor formats such as Sony IMX291, IMX307, IMX327, and IMX462.
Optimized for low-light monitoring and high dynamic environments, it provides stable image quality in UAV flights, robotics navigation, and energy facility surveillance.
Typical Applications
FPV Night Flight
As a FPV night camera lens F1.0, it provides exceptional clarity for drone racing and night flying, giving pilots reliable visibility in extremely dark environments.
UAV Inspection
Integrated as a UAV inspection wide angle M12 lens, it enables drones to capture powerline, bridge, and wind turbine details during night patrols, with reduced noise and increased dynamic range.
Robotics & Machine Vision
For warehouse AMRs and robotic arms, this robotics vision low light M12 lens ensures stable object recognition and navigation in dimly lit industrial settings.
Energy Substation Patrol
Deployed as a substation patrol night lens M12, it supports cabinet monitoring and outdoor inspection in energy and utility sectors, reducing on-site risks for engineers.

F1.0 aperture allows significantly more light than standard F2.0 lenses
Brighter exposure in near-dark environments
Ideal for FPV night flying without strong illumination
Supports true starlight-level imaging with compatible sensors
Stable edge brightness even in low illumination scenes
The lens fits cameras with 1/2.7” or smaller sensors and uses a standard M12 mount, commonly found in FPV drone cameras and security cameras. we have 0.001 lux low light CVBS camera that use and equip with this lens
The large F1.0 aperture allows more light to enter the lens, resulting in brighter, clearer images with less noise in low-light or nighttime environments.
Yes, its compact size and optimized low-light performance make it ideal for FPV drone camera modules, especially for night flying and inspection tasks.
The F1.0 aperture collects more light than typical F2.0–F2.4 lenses, providing bright exposure in dark environments and improving image clarity for night FPV or starlight sensors.
Yes. It is designed for night FPV cameras and gives bright imaging even with minimal illumination.
It supports 1/2.7" and 1/3" sensors such as IMX307, IMX327, IMX225, IMX323, OV2710, and many low-light CMOS sensors.
Yes. The optical elements include IR and AR coatings suitable for IR-assisted or starlight-level imaging.
Yes. It fits any M12 mount board camera used in FPV, night surveillance, low-light USB modules, and industrial AI boxes.
Typical application scenarios
1. FPV racing drone
High-speed flight requires clear and low-latency video transmission. The 2.8mm wide-angle and large aperture ensure that the pilot can react quickly between the track and obstacles.
Maintain a good field of view at night or in low-light tracks to reduce visual blind spots.
2. Night inspection and search drones
Tasks such as power lines and forestry fire patrols need to fly at night or in low-light environments. The excellent low-light performance of the lens greatly improves the inspection effect.
Suitable for applications such as environmental monitoring, emergency rescue and search.
3. Aerial photography and mapping drones
It is necessary to stably collect images in a variety of lighting environments, especially low-light environments at dawn and dusk.
Help aerial photographers capture clear images and improve the accuracy of mapping data.
4. Security patrol drones
With night vision and infrared equipment, it supports all-weather security patrols and border monitoring.
"Our FPV racing league in Berlin struggled with poor night visibility when holding events after sunset. By equipping our drones with the 110° 2.8mm F1.0 Night Vision M12 lens, we achieved clear, wide-angle vision under extremely low light. Pilots reported sharper obstacle awareness and smoother control. The lens’s low-distortion wide field of view gave us a competitive advantage, making night races safer and more exciting."

"Our farm uses drones for crop inspection during early morning and late evening flights. The night vision M12 lens for FPV UAV allowed us to monitor irrigation lines and pest-affected areas without adding heavy external lights. Thanks to its F1.0 aperture and 110° coverage, we gained both wide situational awareness and detailed imaging in twilight conditions. This has saved us 20% in inspection costs compared to daytime-only flights."

"During a coastal rescue mission in Brittany, our UAV team operated at dusk with limited visibility. Equipped with the 110° 2.8mm F1.0 lens for FPV night cameras, the drone provided wide-angle situational awareness and reliable night vision for spotting stranded hikers. The lightweight M12 lens design ensured long flight endurance. This tool has become essential in our search & rescue UAV missions across Europe."
