Leica 0.5x C-Mount for 37mm Port

The Leica 0.5x C-Mount Adapter (cat. no. 541016) is an OEM reduction lens adapter that connects C-mount digital cameras to Leica stereo microscope photo ports with a 37mm insert. The 0.5x reduction factor scales the microscope's optical output to better match smaller camera sensors, widening the field of view and ensuring the full image circle is captured without vignetting. This unit is in excellent condition, available at significant savings over new pricing.

• 📸 0.5x reduction lens — matches microscope output to smaller C-mount camera sensors
• 🔵 37mm insert diameter — fits Leica stereo microscope photo ports directly
• 🔌 C-mount output for direct attachment of C-mount digital cameras and USB/GigE imaging systems
• 🔬 Widens field of view — reduces vignetting and maximizes sensor coverage
• 🇩🇪 Genuine Leica component, manufactured in Germany
• ✅ Excellent condition, inspected and verified

🔧 Product Description

The Leica 0.5x C-Mount Adapter (cat. no. 541016) is the OEM solution for coupling C-mount cameras to Leica stereo microscopes equipped with a 37mm photo port. The integrated 0.5x reduction lens is the critical optical element: it reduces the projected image circle to match the smaller sensor sizes common in scientific and industrial C-mount cameras (1/2”, 1/3”, 2/3”), preventing vignetting and ensuring the camera captures the full, usable field of view. Without a reduction lens, C-mount cameras on stereo microscopes typically show a heavily vignetted image with only the center of the field visible. The 37mm insert fits directly into Leica MZ and M series photo ports, and the C-mount output accepts any standard C-mount camera body. As a genuine Leica OEM component, it maintains optical quality throughout the imaging path. This listing is for a unit in excellent condition — a practical, cost-effective upgrade for any Leica stereo system being configured for digital imaging.
