C-mount  | sē mount |
noun
A type of lens mount originally found on 16mm movie cameras, and later on closed-circuit television cameras, and trinocular microscope phototubes. The letter "C" is said to stand for "cine", the original application being movie camera lenses, such as were made by Arri, Bolex, Angenieux, Bell & Howell, and Eclair. The C-mount standard specifies both the optical and mechanical details for the optical source (such as a lens or microscope) and optical receiver (such as a still camera or TV tube).
The C-mount is commonly found today on industrial/broadcast video cameras such as the Toshiba IK-Tu51 & JK-tu53 "Ice Cube" 3CCD Camera System that we use for point of view, surveillance and miniature camera work. C-mount lens systems have been an integral part of the tradition of filmmaking and television production for the last 50 years.
