Fitting components to the camera port of the binocular phototube
Adapter for Interface 60N (external thread M52 x 1)
The Axio Imager uses a new connector type "Interface 60N" to adapt the camera. The known
adapters for "Interface 60" (inside diameter 30 mm), however, can also be used further on.
Microscope cameras (e.g. AxioCam of Carl Zeiss), customary SLR cameras (Single Lens Reflex; 35 mm film
or digital) or compact digital cameras may be mounted to the camera port.
For your work with photomicrographic devices, please pay attention to the corresponding
manuals of the cameras as well.
