Dovetail Mounting on All Four Sides
Standardized Optical Axis Height for Compatible Mounts
Multiple optical mount options are designed to work well with X26 optical rails by providing a common optical axis height. Compatible optical mounts include SL Series 1.0 in. Gimbal Optical Mounts, SB18YZ Series Lens Positioners, X26 Series Optic and Lens Barrel Mounts They all provided a common optical axis height of 40 mm above the rail surface. The allows for easy optical system construction.
