#19393 – Designed for use with Lepus and NextGEN Telecompressors
The Optec #19393 Variable Length Camera adapter makes setting your camera at the perfect back-focus distance quick and simple. With an OPTEC-2100 base to fit the Lepus or NextGEN telecompressor and T-thread camera interface, The #19393 VLC can set the back-focus from 25 to 42mm. Refer to the back-focus diagram for your NextGEN or Lepus telecompressor lens to determine the optimal back-focus distance.
Each VLC adapter has a precision engraved scale showing the distance in millimeters from the T-thread or STL-thread seat to the base of the adapter.
