Lens Mount Adapters
Excelitas offers a variety of lens mount adapters to enable seamless camera integration into your imaging system. Available lens mount interfaces include C-mount, F-mount, TFL-mount and EF-mount.
The C-mount standard is a widely used lens mount type. It incorporates a one-inch diameter thread with 32 threads per inch and a flange distance of 17.526 mm. This standard is well-suited for various scientific and industrial applications due to its threaded mount, ensuring a sturdy and regulated connection between the camera and lens. Common C-mount lenses can illuminate an image circle in the range of 9 mm (1/1.8’’) to 22 mm (4/3’’) diameter.
The pco.lens adapter C-mount is now available for online purchasing at Digikey.com.
The F-mount standard, characterized by a diameter of 44 mm and a flange distance of 46.5 mm, is a bayonet-style mount commonly found in large format cameras.
The PCO F-mount adapter concept supports lenses with an automatic diaphragm and allows manual aperture setting by turning an adjustment ring. While F-mount lenses without an automatic diaphragm can be connected to the camera's mount, it is not possible to alter the aperture.
The pco.lens adapter F-mount is now available for online purchasing at Digikey.com.
The TFL-mount standard is well-suited for various scientific and industrial applications due to its threaded mount, ensuring a sturdy and regulated connection between the camera and lens. It has thread dimensions of M35 x 0.75 mm, and the same flange distance as the C-mount: 17.526 mm.
The pco.lens adapter TFL-mount is now available for online purchasing at Digikey.com.
The Lens Control EF-mount allows the user to conveniently control the aperture and the focus of Canon EF-lenses remotely via software. For details on compatibility with Excelitas PCO cameras, please see the datasheet.
