Description
0.5x C-mount adapter is an optical coupling accessory for connecting C-mount cameras to compatible light-field microscopes in the OBE series. The 0,5× reduction factor helps match the camera sensor format to the intermediate image, supporting efficient field coverage during documentation, teaching and routine imaging workflows. Compact and lightweight at 0,075 kg, the adapter is supplied as a single unit for straightforward installation on the microscope phototube or dedicated camera port. This accessory is offered by manufacturer KERN and is intended for laboratory microscopy setups that require reliable camera integration without altering the core optical path of the instrument. It suits life-science, materials and educational laboratories that document brightfield observations with digital cameras. Use together with matching OBE-series microscopes and C-mount imaging devices to build a stable, repeatable imaging chain for qualitative assessment, archiving and shared viewing of microscopic specimens under standard laboratory lighting conditions.
This article is part of Microscope objectives, eyepieces & optics, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about 0.5x C-mount adapter, for OBE-serie, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
0.5x C-mount adapter, for OBE-serie, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN for laboratory use. It sits in Microscope objectives, eyepieces & optics, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
An objective makes the resolution. Magnification and numerical aperture are the two numbers, and the tube length or the infinity correction has to match the microscope. An eyepiece mostly enlarges the image the objective already resolved. A mismatched objective does not become sharper by zooming.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
