C-Mount Adapter
C-Mount Adapter (Product Code: SLE/M/56) is a 0.5x camera adapter used to connect a trinocular microscope head to C-mount digital or analogue cameras for photomicrography in teaching and research labs. It is designed to fit the S Trinocular Microscope, and its 0.5x magnification works well with cameras that have the popular 1/2 in chip size. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, a laboratory equipment supplier in India.

What Is a C-Mount Adapter Used For?
A trinocular microscope sends part of its image up a third tube for a camera, but a camera cannot simply be pushed onto that port. The C-mount adapter holds the camera at the correct position on the standard C-mount thread so the picture is in focus. With a camera attached, labs can record slides for reports, show a live image on a monitor during a demonstration and build image libraries for revision.
The 0.5x optics shrink the image so that more of the microscope field fits onto a small camera sensor. On a camera with a 1/2 in chip, the view on screen is therefore closer to what the user sees through the eyepieces; with other chip sizes the framing will differ. Always check that the adapter suits your microscope’s trinocular port before ordering.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Your microscope model and its trinocular port (the listing names the S Trinocular Microscope)
- Your camera’s mount type, confirming it is C-mount
- Your camera’s chip size (1/2 in suits the 0.5x adapter)
- Number of adapters needed

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the C-Mount Adapter do?
The C-Mount Adapter connects the trinocular head of a microscope to a C-mount-style digital or analogue camera. It holds the camera at the right position on the port so that images of the specimen can be captured or displayed live.
Which microscope does the C-Mount Adapter fit?
The C-Mount Adapter is listed as designed to fit the S Trinocular Microscope. Trinocular ports vary between models, so if you have a different microscope, send its model through the contact page and we will confirm fit before you order.
Why does the C-Mount Adapter have 0.5x magnification?
The C-Mount Adapter’s 0.5x optics reduce the image so more of the microscope field fits on a small camera sensor. It is matched to cameras that have the popular 1/2 in chip size, giving a view close to the eyepiece image.
Which cameras can be used with the C-Mount Adapter?
The C-Mount Adapter is intended for C-mount-style digital and analogue cameras, ideally with a 1/2 in chip. Tell us your camera model and sensor size and we will check whether the adapter is the right match.
