31.75mm Eyepiece to C-mount Fixed Telescope Eyepiece Adapter

The 31.75mm Eyepiece to C-mount Fixed Telescope Eyepiece Adapter connects a C-mount camera to a 31.75mm diameter eyepiece tube.

Product Overview

The 31.75mm Eyepiece to C-mount Fixed Telescope Eyepiece Adapter connects a C-mount camera to a 31.75mm diameter eyepiece tube. It is available in three magnification options: 0.37X, 0.50X, and 0.75X, each designed to match specific sensor sizes from 1/4" to 1". The adapter ensures the camera captures the full field of view when used with a telescope or microscope eyepiece.

  • Adapter typeFixed
  • Output31.75mm diameter eyepiece tube
  • Sensor size compatibility1/4" ~ 1/3", 1/2" ~ 2/3", 1/1.8" ~ 1"
  • MountingFixed, no adjustment
  • Optical systemNon-magnifying, field-preserving
  • MaterialAluminum alloy

Key Benefits

  • Connects a C-mount camera directly to a 31.75mm eyepiece tube without optical loss
  • Three magnification options allow matching the camera sensor size to the eyepiece field
  • Fixed design maintains alignment and focus during imaging
  • Reduces the need for custom adapters when integrating cameras with optical instruments
  • Supports use with telescopes, microscopes and other optical systems requiring C-mount camera integration

Application Scenarios

  • Attaching a C-mount camera to a telescope eyepiece for astrophotography or planetary imaging
  • Integrating a digital camera into a microscope system using a 31.75mm eyepiece tube
  • Capturing images from a fixed telescope setup where the camera must be mounted directly to the eyepiece
  • Using a C-mount camera with a 31.75mm optical tube in a quality inspection system
  • Connecting a camera to a polarizing or fluorescence microscope with a 31.75mm eyepiece port

Who It Is For

  • Astronomy hobbyists and educational institutions using telescopes with C-mount cameras
  • Microscopy labs integrating digital imaging into existing eyepiece-based systems
  • Quality control teams using C-mount cameras on inspection microscopes
  • Research labs performing long-term imaging with fixed optical setups
  • Manufacturers of optical instruments requiring standardized camera integration

Problems It Solves

  • A mismatch between C-mount camera sensor size and eyepiece field causes vignetting or incomplete image capture
  • Using a generic adapter without proper magnification leads to focus shift or image distortion
  • Lack of a fixed adapter causes misalignment during repeated camera mounting
  • No standard interface between 31.75mm eyepiece tubes and C-mount cameras requires custom fabrication
  • Inconsistent magnification between the eyepiece and camera results in incorrect scale in images

Technical Features

  • Fixed adapter design with no moving parts for stable optical alignment
  • Three magnification options: 0.37X, 0.50X, and 0.75X for sensor sizes from 1/4" to 1"
  • C-mount thread (1"-32 UNF) for secure camera attachment
  • 31.75mm inner diameter to fit standard eyepiece tubes
  • Optical path designed to preserve the full field of view when sensor size is smaller than the available field

Customization Options

  • Select the correct magnification (0.37X, 0.50X, or 0.75X) based on the camera sensor size
  • Choose the model code (FTA037, FTA050, or FTA075) to match the sensor range
  • Request a custom adapter if a different output diameter or magnification is needed

Comparison With Other Options

Adjustable telescope eyepiece adapterThe fixed adapter offers stable alignment and no focus drift; adjustable types may shift during use or require frequent re-tightening.
Generic 31.75mm to C-mount adapter without magnification specificationThis adapter includes defined magnification values to match sensor size, reducing risk of field cutoff or image distortion.
C-mount to 25.4mm eyepiece adapterThis adapter is designed for 31.75mm tubes, which are common in larger telescopes and microscopes; 25.4mm is not compatible with 31.75mm systems.

Use Guide

  • Select the adapter model (FTA037, FTA050, or FTA075) based on your camera sensor size
  • Ensure the sensor size is smaller than the maximum field available for the selected magnification
  • Attach the C-mount camera to the adapter using the 1"-32 UNF thread
  • Mount the adapter onto the 31.75mm eyepiece tube and tighten securely
  • Check for image centering and full field coverage; adjust camera position if needed
  • Use with a telescope or microscope that has a 31.75mm eyepiece tube

Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Which adapter should I choose for my 1/2" sensor camera?

Use FTA050, which is designed for 1/2" ~ 2/3" sensor sizes.

Can I use this adapter with a 25.4mm eyepiece tube?

No. This adapter is designed for 31.75mm diameter eyepiece tubes only.

Does the magnification affect the image scale?

Yes. The magnification (0.37X, 0.50X, 0.75X) reduces the image size on the sensor, so the effective field of view is adjusted accordingly.

Is the adapter adjustable?

No. It is a fixed adapter with no focus or alignment adjustment.

What if my sensor is larger than the field of the adapter?

The image will be cropped or vignette. Select an adapter with a higher magnification or a larger field to match your sensor size.

Can I use this with a microscope?

Yes. It can be used with any optical system that has a 31.75mm eyepiece tube and a C-mount camera.
