The OMAX M5 Series offers high-quality and economical solutions for video inspection and photomicrography. These lenses can be used with a wide range of C-Mount cameras to easily integrate into standalone or computer-based workflows. The 50mm mounting diameter works with small-profile table-stands and large-format boom and articulating supports. Multiple illumination options are available to complete the package. Modular Optics M5745TD zoom lens systems provide a 0.7X to 4.5X magnification range when using the pre-mounted 1X auxiliary objective lens. Additional lenses from 0.5X to 2X are available to increase or decrease magnification. This C075 model includes an integrated 0.75X compensating lens to optimize the field of view for 2/3" format and smaller camera sensors. Zoom with Detent The zoom ring has a detent to click into place at key magnifications which can be especially useful when recording measurements or following redundant procedures on a production or QC line. Support Options M5745TD series lenses are designed to be used with a range of support systems, including table stands, boom stands, and articulating stands. The lens can be mounted in 50mm collars, or combined with the AD-SZ76 adapter to fit the 76mm collars used by our most popular stands. Single Lens vs Stereo While stereo microscopes view subjects with three-dimensional depth for applications such as micro-soldering and dissection, the stereo lens design is not optimal for producing accurate photos or videos due to off-axis, angular distortion and keystoning. Using a single lens allows you to view subjects on a single axis to achieve focus across the entire field, and without the angular distortion. This makes the single lens ideal for video monitoring systems and photomicrography. By providing a similar magnification range as stereo microscopes, the single-lens solution can easily fit into similar workflows.
