Camera dimensions
F-Mount flange focal distance
Flange focal distance is the optical distance from the mounting flange to image
sensor die. Prosilica GE F-Mount cameras are optically calibrated to a standard
46.5 mm optical flange focal distance.
Adjustment of F-Mount
The F-Mount is adjusted at the factory and should not require adjusting. If for
some reason, the lens mount requires adjustment, use the following method.
Attach F-Mount compatible lens
Use an F-Mount compatible lens that allows an infinity focus. Attach the lens
to the camera using a counter-clockwise rotation of about a quarter turn. The
lens should snap into place such that the lens flange and camera flange mate
over the full circumference.
Loosen F-Mount front assembly
Use a 1.5 mm hex wrench to loosen the three set screws than hold the F-
Mount front assembly to the camera body.
Image to infinity
Set the lens to infinity and image a distant object; 10 to 15 m should suffice.
Gently move the F-Mount front until focused and lock it in place.
