Lightweight MWIR Continuous Zoom Lens 15–315mm F4.0 S — The Precise Balance of High Performance and Lightweight Design
31 Oct,2025

Wuhan CLEAR officially launches its new-generation lightweight model of the Mid-Wave Infrared (MWIR) continuous zoom lens, 15–315mm. Building upon the company's leading expertise in MWIR optical design, this product incorporates lightweight structural optimization and innovations in infrared optical materials, achieving a total weight of just 860 grams. It maintains exceptional imaging performance while significantly enhancing system integration flexibility and adaptability to complex environments.
This 15–315mm lens is equipped with a high-precision MWIR optical system, covering a broad focal length range from 15mm to 315mm. It perfectly meets the high-resolution infrared imaging requirements for long-distance target detection, recognition, and tracking. Through the use of lightweight optical components and an integrated structural design, the lens ensures mechanical stability and wide-temperature range thermal compensation performance, while markedly reducing overall weight. This effectively improves the payload efficiency for platforms such as drones (UAV/UGV), border security surveillance, maritime patrol, search and rescue operations, and high-end electro-optical reconnaissance systems.
The product features a typical MWIR spectral response capability of 3–5μm. Its 15x continuous zoom design enables seamless switching from wide field of view to narrow field of view, delivering clear and sharp imaging. An efficient thermal compensation structure ensures stable focus across a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +60°C. Furthermore, the high-precision zoom and focus mechanisms support integration with intelligent imaging platforms. Customizable interfaces allow compatibility with various MWIR detectors and system architectures, balancing advanced technology with engineering reliability.
This new product launch signifies a major technological breakthrough for Wuhan CLEAR in the field of lightweight infrared optical systems. The company remains committed to deepening its expertise in MWIR imaging technology, driving product upgrades towards higher performance, lighter weight, and greater intelligence, thereby providing efficient and reliable core optical solutions for the global electro-optical imaging, security surveillance, and specialized detection industries.
