Camera Mount

The HR/HRP/HRD coupler systems can adapt C-mount and Nikon "F" mount video or digital cameras. The C-mount style is found on single chip analog CCD cameras, some cooled CCD cameras and some digital cameras. The Nikon "F" bayonet style is found on digital CCD cameras.

Parfocalizing Adjustment

A twist-style parfocalizing adjustment is standard on all couplers. This focusing mechanism allows the user to achieve simultaneous focus through the microscope eyepieces and TV monitor. All versions have a handy focus lock to prevent movement of the collar once the adjustment is made.

HR Coupler Magnification

Each HR-series coupler contains a relay lens to project the microscope imtermediate image onto the camera CCD chip. A variety of magnifications are available which allow the user to achieve the desired field of view for various CCD formats (1/3", 1/2", 2/3", etc). The HRD couplers are specifically designed to provide higher resolution with digital cameras.

Bottom Clamp

Because microscope phototubes vary greatly in size and dimensions, we use a variety of bottom clamps to adapt our couplers to virtually every microscope in the marketplace. These clamps slide over the end of the video coupler and provide a secure attachment to the microscope.
