Description
0.5x C-mount adapter is an optical interface accessory for laboratory microscopes in the OBL series, enabling camera coupling via the standard C-mount thread at a 0,5× reduction factor. It supports digital documentation, live viewing and image capture in routine and research microscopy workflows where a camera sensor must be matched to the intermediate image plane. The adapter is supplied as a single unit and is intended for straightforward integration into existing OBL optical paths without altering the core microscope configuration. With a unit weight of 1,000 kg, it is a compact, dedicated component for imaging setups rather than a general-purpose mechanical part. Suitable for laboratories that equip phase contrast and related transmitted-light systems with cameras, this accessory from manufacturer KERN helps align field of view and sensor format for clear, well-framed micrographs. It belongs to the microscopes and accessories range used alongside optical instruments and lamps in analytical and teaching environments. Pack size is one piece, ready for installation on compatible OBL-series stands where a 0,5× C-mount reduction is required for camera work.
This article is part of Microscope objectives, eyepieces & optics, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about 0.5x C-mount adapter, for OBL-serie, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
0.5x C-mount adapter, for OBL-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.
