SenSys User Manual
Each SenSys camera system is shipped with a removable F- or C-mount adapter
attached. The F-mount adapter allows the camera to be attached to lenses and
scientific instruments that are compatible with a Nikon bayonet mount. The
C-mount adapter allows the camera to be attached to many video camera lenses
and C-mount compatible instruments.
Photometrics also offers F-mount and C-mount lenses, and a tripod camera
stand.
SenSys Mount Adapters and Lens Options
The SenSys F- and C-mount adapters thread into the camera at a pitch of
32 threads/inch. When the camera is focused, two #6-32 inch socket set screws
(two #4-40 inch socket set screws for the C-mount) secure the adapters in place
and hold the optical alignment in parfocality. The set screws are adjusted with
a long-handled 1/16" (or .050") hex driver that is provided with the system.
Both mounts are shipped with a cap covering the aperture. For mounted and
unmounted specifications drawings, see Chapter 6. Specifications.
For C- and F-mount adapter installation, removal, and focusing instructions,
see Chapter 3. Configuration Options.
