Dear all,

I’m looking for a camera switch/splitter with which I can switch between two cameras mounted on one c-mount. All options I found are dual camera adapters, i.e. running two cameras simultaneously. Instead of a dichroic mirror, all I need is a 4f system with a flip mirror. I’ve seen a simple-looking one on a Zeiss widefield setup recently. A field of view large enough to work for a full sCMOS chip would be great, but not a strict must. Here are the three adapters made for simultaneous dual-camera imaging I found online:

1) Thorlabs two-camera mount (no 4f system, though)
2) Andor dual-camera coupler
3) Cairn TwinCam

Do you know about other options, ideally with a flip mirror?

Best,
Michael
