1.7.4 Selecting the Optimum Lens Adapter
The camera’s scope of delivery does not include a lens adapter. It is needed to attach a lens to a
camera. You must order a lens adapter separately as an accessory.
The optimum choice of a lens mount adapter depends on the lens and on the resolution of the
camera model. The recommended combinations of lens adapters and camera models are indicated
in the following table:
1.7.5 Attaching a Lens Adapter
Use the four M2.5 setscrews supplied with the lens adapter to lock the lens adapter to the camera.
See Fig. 3 for information where to place the M2.5 setscrews.
