An F-mount lens can be used with a C-mount camera via an F-mount to C-mount adapter, which can be purchased separately – refer to the Imperx web side for more information. The camera performance and signal to noise ratio depends on the illumination (amo unt of light) reaching the sensor and the exposure time.
