- | Mechanically the camera is stronger than the MD1800. | ||

- | One item of interest is that the USB port is a lot harder to take in/out than the MD series or other typical USB devices. | ||

- | * Adapters: | ||
- | * MTV-3 | ||
- | * "The MTV-3 produces a circular image approximately 16 mm in diameter, and to take full advantage of this a video camera with a 1″ sensor would be needed. The Nikon 1 J1 and V1 cameras have a CX format sensor with a 15.9 mm diagonal, and so they also appear to be suitable." | ||
- | * U-PMTVC | ||
- | * "The only significant difference from the MTV-3 is that it provides some adjustment for parfocality between the video camera and the viewing eyepieces." | ||
- | * TVZ-M Zoom Video Lens (catalogue number 7-C567) | ||
- | * magnification range of 0.55× to 1.1×. | ||
- | * includes a parfocalising collar and is designed to work without a photo eyepiece. | ||
- | * Diagnostic Instruments produce alternative adapters for video cameras with ½″, 2/3″ and 1″ format sensors; they are designed to work without a photo eyepiece. | ||
