used, follow its instruction manual.

having magnification of 0.5X to 1X. (If a 0.35X TV adapter is used, the
periphery of the photographed image will become dark.)

optical performance of the system may not be manifested fully.
Be careful in using a C-mount TV adapter or C-mount lens having
a longer thread length than 4.5 mm. Otherwise, the threaded
