Q: 10. What is the minimal focal distance of the lens? i.e. how close can you bring any object to the lens whilst it is still acceptably sharp?

A: If you still want to be focused to infinity then the minimum focus distance for the 3.8mm M12 lens is about half a meter. If you don't care about infinity and are only concerned about near focus with a very shallow depth of field, you can set the focus of the 3.8mm mm to about 1cm away from the lens.
