the bottom of the camera unit 2.
CAUTION
· Be careful in using a C-mount adapter or C-mount lens
¬ having a longer thread length ® than 7 mm. Other-
wise, the threaded section will hit the inside of the cam-
era unit and cause damage to it.

adapter having magnification of 0.5X to 1X. (If a 0.35X
TV adapter is used, the periphery of the photographed
image will become dark.)
