No need to readjust lens mounts
Alvium CSI-2 camera mounts are adjusted with high precision during
manufacturing. Construction ensures permanent accuracy without need to
readjust.

Filters in Alvium CSI-2 color cameras
C-Mount and CS-Mount models of Alvium CSI-2 color models are delivered with IR
cut filter. The filter is permanently installed and cannot be removed.
Monochrome and S-Mount models are delivered without filter. This extends the
sensitivity for low-light imaging. Moreover, spectral sensitivity is increased. As a side
effect, color, contrast, and sharpness can be affected by near-IR wavelengths.
NOTICE
Damage to sensor or optics by unsuitable lenses
Sensor, filter, or lens can be damaged, if a lens exceeding maximum protrusion is
mounted to the camera.
