ASSEMBLY

1. Connect the bottom of the adapter tube to the dove 
tail on top of the zoom lens, and tighten the set screws 
lightly – do NOT over tighten these screws. You will 
need a Regular Hex Key 5/64, 0.050” (provided).

2. Thread the C-mount coupler onto your camera, and 
once in position, slide the top dove tail of the Adapter 
Tube into the bottom of the C-mount coupler, and again 
tighten these screws carefully. Should you need to 

 

change the orientation you see on screen, loosen these 
screws on the C-mount coupler and rotate the camera.

3. If you are using an UltraZoom or a standard Zoom, 
you may screw on the optional lens attachment or an 
objective coupler with microscope objective.

MOUNTING

The two most important characteristics of any mounting 
system are stability and ease of movement. Stability 
minimizes any relative motion (vibration) between the 
object and the lens which degrades the image. Ease 
of movement relates to the ability to critically focus the

There are three common methods to mount the lens:

1. Mount the Universal Mounting Clamp (1-6270) 
(purchased separately) over the adapter. This is 
the most rigid method – best for areas with severe 
vibrations.

2.  Use any of the stand adapter plates offered for use 
with common microscope focus blocks.

3.  If mounting to the zoom lens itself is required, please 
reference the mounting location (A) towards the top of 
the zoom assembly.
