Cosmicar is the lens brand of Asahi Precision Co., Ltd., and is most associated with CCTV and other industrial lenses. Their lenses in C-mount are sometimes adapted for use with Micro Four Thirds cameras. Later releases adopted the name Cosmicar/Pentax from the more familiar brand of the parent Pentax Corporation.

A small number of Cosmicar 35mm SLR lenses were offered in Pentax K mount as a lower-cost alternative to Pentax's own versions. Discreet "Cosmicar" engraving is also seen on a few lenses marketed as CPC Phase 2 and perhaps others.
