Back Flange Distance—Cased Models
The Back Flange Distance (BFD) is offset due to the presence of both a 1 mm infrared cutoff (IRC) filter and a 0.5 mm
sensor package window. These two pieces of glass fit between the lens and the sensor image plane. The IRC filter is
installed on color cameras. In monochrome cameras, it is a transparent piece of glass. The sensor package window is
installed by the sensor manufacturer. Both components cause refraction, which requires some offset in flange back
distance to correct.
The resulting C-mount BFD is 17.99 mm.
The resulting CS-mount BFD is 12.52 mm.
