Mounting the camera
Standard and extended format housing
You can attach the camera to a base using the M3 thread mounting holes built into
the top, bottom, and front of the Prosilica GT camera housing. Optionally, you can
use the tripod adapter to mount your Prosilica GT camera to a tripod.
NOTICE
Many of the lens mount styles available such as M42-Mount, F-Mount, and
EF-Mount are not designed for high vibration environments with a heavy lens load.
We recommend supporting the lens externally in these environments.
NOTICE
As monochrome and NIR models don’t have an optical filter, always attach a dust
cap when a lens is not attached to minimize the possibility of contaminants falling
on the sensor surface.
