Micro 4/3 lenses on the HQ Camera module
Posted: Sun Mar 28, 2021 1:43 am
I wish to use my m4/3 lenses on the HQ Camera module, but there is no m4/3 to C-mount adapters on the marked. (only the wrong way)
The reason for a non existent m4/3 to C-mount adapter is:
The flange distance on a C-mount is 17.526 mm and the flange distance on m4/3 is 19.25 mm. This gives a play of 1,724mm, and the problem is that the depth of the bayonet is 4mm. So the C-mount needs to be 2,276mm inside the bayonet of the m4/3 lens.
I did order the CNC machining metal housing. So the best solution is to CNC machining a new custom frontplate for a m4/3 bayonet mount with the correct flange distance. I have a strong wish that the StereoPi project will consider this option.
Maybe anyone have som good ideas?
