Feature

Kowa’s new HC-V series is made for use in high vibration and shock environments.
With a design based on Kowa’s standard 1” HC lenses, this new ruggedized megapixel lens series is ideal for applications that require increased durability and high optical performance.

Up to 5 megapixels performance
Unique mechanical design to guard against strong vibration and shock.
Two way reversible nut is utilized instead of thumb screws in order to tightly lock the focus adjustment ring in place.
Utilizing two way reversible nut contributes to the prevention of screw dropping troubles.
All internal glass elements are glued to the inside housing to improve stability.
Interchangeable iris plates are used to select
the F-stop.

Interchangeable Iris Plates

1. The HC-V series uses interchangeable iris plates instead
of mechanical iris diaphragms with moving blades. You
can choose from four iris plates to adjust the F-stop.
Focus Adjustment Procedure

2. Unscrew the bottom ring of the outside body to adjust the focus to optimal position.

3. Screw the red two way reversible nut on the center body
towards the bottom ring to lock in the focus.
