Precision 5mm C-to-CS Mount Security Camera Lens Adapter Ring

The IDIS DA-LNC501P is a high-precision, commercial-grade 5mm optical spacer ring engineered to bridge the mechanical gap between C-mount lenses and CS-mount box cameras. In professional enterprise surveillance setups, matching the correct flange focal distance—the space between the rear lens element and the camera sensor—is critical to achieving true image clarity. This premium adapter provides the exact 5mm extension required to deploy specialized, legacy, or high-magnification C-mount lenses on modern CS-mount security camera bodies without sacrificing focus calibration or depth of field.

Heavy-Duty Anodized Alloy Construction for Flawless Mechanical Alignment

Even microscopic misalignments in a camera's lens train can cause uneven image sharpness, blurry corners, or focusing shifts. Crafted from structural-grade aluminum alloy with an anti-reflective matte black anodized surface, the IDIS DA-LNC501P is machined to ultra-tight tolerances. Its robust metallic construction eliminates structural warping or stripping over time under the weight of heavier, long-range variable focal telephoto lenses. By maintaining an exact perpendicular geometry between the glass elements and the sensor plane, this ring delivers optimal performance across your multi-megapixel video streams.

Standardized 32 TPI Thread Pitch

Features standard 1-inch diameter threads with 32 threads-per-inch spacing (ANSI/ASME standard), ensuring smooth, non-binding thread matching across all compliant CCTV box camera brands and optical configurations.

Anti-Reflective Internal Matte Finish

The interior bore of the adapter is treated with a light-absorbing black treatment that prevents stray light reflections, ghosting, or flare artifacts inside the lens barrel, preserving contrast in bright light.

Why do I need a 5mm adapter ring to use a C-mount lens on a CS-mount camera?

C-mount and CS-mount lenses share the exact same thread size and pitch, but they have different back-focus distances. A C-mount lens requires the lens elements to sit 17.526mm away from the image sensor, while a CS-mount camera sensor sits only 12.5mm deep. Screwing a C-mount lens directly onto a CS-mount camera leaves it 5mm too close to the sensor, making it impossible to focus the lens. This 5mm ring provides the exact extension needed to correct the focal plane.

Can I use this adapter ring to mount a CS-mount lens onto a C-mount camera body?

No, you cannot. A CS-mount lens must be positioned closer to the sensor (12.5mm) than a C-mount camera body allows (17.526mm). Because a C-mount camera body is naturally too deep, a CS-mount lens would need to be recessed inside the camera body to focus, which cannot be corrected by an external adapter ring.

Will using this adapter ring reduce light transmission or degrade video resolution?

Not at all. The DA-LNC501P is a completely hollow mechanical ring that does not contain any glass elements. It physically repositions the lens at its factory-intended distance from the sensor, ensuring you get the full optical sharpness, brightness, and resolution your chosen lens is designed to deliver.

Are any specialized assembly tools required to lock this spacer in place?

No tools are needed. The adapter features smooth, precision-machined threads that allow it to be hand-tightened directly onto your C-mount lens barrel before threading the combined assembly into your box camera's front CS-mount port.
