Olympus U-TRUS Side Camera Port

The Olympus U-TRUS is a side camera port intermediate adapter that adds a C-mount camera output to Olympus BX and CX series upright microscopes. It installs between the microscope body and the observation head — no head replacement or additional trinocular tube is required. The side-mounted C-mount port accepts standard C-mount cameras and adapters, enabling image capture and video documentation directly from the microscope optical path. This makes the U-TRUS an efficient and cost-effective solution for adding camera capability to BX or CX series microscopes that currently have a binocular head or lack a dedicated camera port, without the expense of replacing the entire head with a trinocular model. The adapter maintains the full optical path to the eyepieces while providing the camera output, allowing simultaneous visual observation and camera documentation. Built to Olympus factory specifications (SKU N2744200), the U-TRUS ensures precise optical alignment and a guaranteed fit between the BX/CX body and head.
