I'm imaging an area of 90mmx90mm. I'm currently using the Arducam 64MP Hawkeye for this and it works well. Due to its optical properties, i have to keep the Hawkeye around 130mm away to minimise distortion which requires some cropping but otherwise it works fine.

However, due to multiple unrelated reasons, I'm trying to replace this setup with my Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera but I'm struggling to find a lens. Could be C/CS or M12 mount, but everything I see is either insanely expensive, very low quality (3MP lenses), or would require the camera to be quite a bit further away. So after a lot of search, I'm asking here for some suggestions.

This is what I need:

1. C/CS or M12 mount
2. Need to be able to fit the 90mmx90mm area in the frame without cropping
3. Quality doesn't need to be perfect, but must be at least as good as the Hawkeye. Some minor distortion is fine.
4. Working distance can be adapted, but ideally under 200mm. The closer the better.
5. Most importantly, it needs to be relatively affordable (under 100$) and widely available.

Additional information:

• Images are static and well illuminated
• I know there are other options like the camera module 3 that could work, but this project requires the HQ camera specifically

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
