Microscope Camera Mounts & Couplers

Connect your digital microscope camera correctly with a suitable C-mount adapter, relay lens or camera coupler. Auckland Scientific supplies optical adapters for a wide range of microscope and camera combinations, helping you achieve the correct field of view and effective sensor coverage.

Why the Correct Camera Adapter Matters

A microscope camera does not simply connect mechanically to the microscope. The relay magnification, camera sensor size and microscope photo port all influence the image that reaches the camera.

Selecting the correct adapter can help provide a better match between the microscope image circle and the camera sensor, giving a useful field of view without unnecessary cropping or excessive magnification.

Camera Sensor Size

The sensor dimensions affect how much of the microscope image is captured.

Relay Magnification

Options such as 0.35x, 0.5x, 0.63x or 1.0x can significantly change the field of view.

Microscope Compatibility

The correct fitting depends on the microscope manufacturer, model and photo-port configuration.

Camera Adapter Range

Our range includes microscope camera mounts and couplers for compatible systems from manufacturers including Nikon, Leica, ZEISS and Evident/Olympus. Different magnifications and optical configurations are available depending on the microscope and camera combination.
