50mm F1.2 lens + adaptor/carrier for E700 spotters clearance sale
Posted: 02 Nov 2018, 15:41
Clearing out some surplus new stock as I'm setting aside NV rig builds in the near future. Bundle price £25 posted RMSD.
The custom design CNC made adaptors/carriers are a very simple and robust method to secure both a 50mm F1.2 M12 lens and an E700 camera to a spotter box or panel. The lens screws directly into the E700's standard M12x0.5mm threaded neck.
This long and vulnerable lens is usually avoided in spotter builds because its somewhat vulnerable to knocks during handling and storage which would easily dislodge both it and the camera away from the aim of the torch.
So I had some fixing adaptors made with a shroud that protects it from knocks and attaches both to the box with four M4 fixing screws.
This is all you need to robustly fix both a 50mm M12 lens and E700 camera body to a spotter box. The camera is fully protected from knocks inside the box so is very capably glued to the inside of the adaptor with silicone bathroom sealant that sticks it like shit to a blanket, having been guided into a central and correct focal distance by its neck - but can be removed with a good twist if required. Also comes with 4x M4 fixing screws.
Please read this sales post about the C mount lens adaptors I also make as they are fitted in the same way following the same instructions, but note they are not designed with a rear flange long enough to accommodate an O-ring to be 'steerable'.

I'm winding down my night vision build activities and will sell these adaptors and lens for a clearance price of £25. The lens alone costs more than that at UK prices. I have three lenses left but a few more adaptors.
