Focused coverage at 30 mm
The narrowest HF-E view in the lineup comes from MVL-HF3028M-6MPE and its 30 mm fixed focal length. On the stated Ø 9 mm, 1/1.8-inch image, coverage is 16.99° diagonal, 14.01° horizontal and 9.38° vertical. The C-mount assembly has manual focus and a manual F2.8 to F16 iris. Distortion is listed at -0.031%, providing a defined geometric characteristic for close inspection of a restricted region.
A 14.01° horizontal angle is suited to small markings, narrow edge zones and individual assembly features that should fill more of the image. Minimum object distance is 0.2 m, so the station must provide that focusing clearance. The manual controls are appropriate where working distance and illumination remain fixed after setup: focus establishes the plane and the iris balances exposure with depth of field. The Ø 33 mm × 29.4 mm lens weighs 49.2 g and takes an M27 × P0.5 filter.
MVL-HF2528M-6MPE is the nearest HF-E neighbour, widening the horizontal field to 16.77° at 25 mm while retaining the same 0.2 m minimum object distance. MVL-HF1628M-6MPE opens the view further to 25.94° at 16 mm and focuses from 0.1 m. All use C-mount, cover Ø 9 mm and offer F2.8 to F16. Choose 30 mm when the 14.01° view frames the target; use 25 mm or 16 mm when progressively more context is required.

Selection and applications
Narrow marking inspection. Small edge-zone imaging. Restricted-field feature checks.
Minimum kit: The initial imaging set is a C-mount camera, the MVL-HF3028M-6MPE lens, the data cable required by that camera, and its specified electrical supply.
Nearby in the range: MVL-HF2528M-6MPE — Prefer it for a slightly wider 16.77° horizontal field at 25 mm; MVL-HF1628M-6MPE — Prefer it when 16 mm and a 25.94° horizontal angle provide needed context.

FAQ
How narrow is the imaging field from MVL-HF3028M-6MPE?
The specified field is 16.99° diagonal, 14.01° horizontal and 9.38° vertical on a Ø 9 mm image. This is the tightest angular coverage among the HF-E focal lengths in the lineup, making it the endpoint of that range for restricted framing.
What object-distance limit applies to the 30 mm lens?
The minimum object distance is 0.2 m. The camera and lens must be positioned at or beyond that focusing condition, then manual focus is set for the actual plane. Field size at that distance follows from the stated 30 mm focal length and angular coverage.
How is this lens mounted and what image size does it cover?
It is a C-mount lens with a 17.526 mm flange-back length and a Ø 9 mm image size, also identified as 1/1.8 inch. The mechanical body is Ø 33 mm × 29.4 mm and its mass is 49.2 g, providing the mounting envelope.
Which settings remain manual in a fixed imaging station?
Both focus and iris are manual. Aperture adjustment spans F2.8 to F16, while an M27 × P0.5 thread accepts a front filter. The lens therefore suits a station where focus, depth behavior and filtering are selected during setup and then left fixed.
What changes when moving from the 25 mm HF-E lens to 30 mm?
Horizontal coverage decreases from 16.77° on MVL-HF2528M-6MPE to 14.01° on this model. Both have a 0.2 m minimum object distance, Ø 9 mm coverage, C-mount and an F2.8 to F16 iris, so framing is the principal stated change.
