| Vizy can work with two types of lenses -- M12 and C/CS-mount. M12 is the same type of lens commonly used with action cameras like GoPro. C/CS-mount is often used in industrial/security applications. Being able to use both types of lenses means Vizy can be used with a wide range of off-the-shelf lenses. Since Vizy has an actuated IR-cut filter, it's recommended that you use lenses that do not have IR-cut filtering. Fortunately, these lenses are easier to find. | Vizy can work with two types of lenses -- M12 and C/CS-mount. M12 is the same type of lens commonly used with action cameras like GoPro.
