Euromex DC.1355 C‑Mount Adapter with 0.5x Objective for Ø 23.2 mm Tube and 1/2″ Camera Sensor

The C‑Mount Adapter DC.1355 is a compact microscope camera adapter designed to couple C‑Mount cameras to microscopes with a Ø 23.2 mm tube, optimising field of view for 1/2″ sensor systems.

• C‑Mount interface for standard cameras
• 0.5x reduction lens for wider field of view
• Designed for Ø 23.2 mm tube and 1/2″ sensors

Improved imaging throughput with standard interfaces

The Euromex C‑Mount Adapter DC.1355 brings a measurable improvement to imaging throughput by combining a C‑Mount interface with a 0.5x objective. The reduction lens halves the effective magnification delivered to a 1/2″ sensor, which increases the observable area without altering the optical path inside the microscope. This compatibility with a common camera mount reduces the need for costly custom couplings and enables reliable, repeatable image capture across inspection, documentation and routine analysis tasks.

More useful image area and simpler sensor matching

A 0.5x reduction lens is primarily valuable where a larger field of view is required. By lowering the effective magnification, the optical image is spread more evenly across the sensor, resulting in a wider scene capture from the same microscope setup. The result is a more efficient inspection process and fewer image mosaics for overview shots. For teams integrating digital cameras into established optical rigs, this adapter simplifies sensor matching and helps achieve consistent results with 1/2″ camera sensors.

Robust mechanical fit for stable imaging

Mechanical compatibility is essential for reproducible results in laboratory and industrial settings. The adapter is specified for a Ø 23.2 mm tube, a common standard for many trinocular and photo ports, and employs the industry-standard C‑Mount connection for camera attachment. This combination ensures a secure fit and minimal play between microscope and camera, which supports stable focus and alignment during imaging sequences. Clear mechanical standards reduce setup time and lower the risk of image artefacts caused by misalignment.

Practical advantages for labs and inspection benches

Integration of a purpose-built adapter reduces setup complexity and supports faster throughput in routine workflows. The device is particularly suited to laboratories, quality control benches and teaching environments where adapting different camera types quickly is necessary. By standardising on a C‑Mount connection and a 0.5x reduction, the adapter helps maintain consistent imaging parameters across multiple stations while keeping the optical chain straightforward to service and recalibrate when required.
