Lens Mounting

Lenses are not included with individual cameras.

The Back Flange Distance (BFD) is offset due to the presence of both a 1 mm infrared cutoff (IRC) filter (color models

only) and a 0.5 mm sensor package window. These two pieces of glass fit between the lens and the sensor image plane.

The IRC filter is installed on color cameras. The sensor package window is installed by the sensor manufacturer. Both

components cause refraction, which requires some offset in flange back distance to correct.

For more information about the IRC filter, see

The camera has 6 MB flash memory for users to store data.

The camera housing is designed to prevent dust from falling directly onto the sensor's protective glass surface. In color

models, this is achieved by placing an IR cut-off filter that sits above the surface of the sensor's glass. A removable plastic

retainer keeps this glass/filter system in place. By increasing the distance between the imaging surface and the location

of the potential dust particles, the likelihood of interference from the dust (assuming non-collimated light) and the

possibility of damage to the sensor during cleaning is reduced.

Warning! Cameras are sealed when they are shipped. To avoid

contamination, seals should not be broken until cameras are ready

for assembly on site.

Warning! Use caution when removing the filter. Damage to any

component of the optical path voids the Hardware Warranty.

Removing the protective glass or filter alters the optical path of the

camera, and may result in problems obtaining proper focus with

your lens.
