 ===== Using different lenses with Vizy =====
-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.
