Yes, but I was already considering buying the same 100mm lens from germany - would have been 900+€ then, luckly found is eBay.com offer instead. ;-)

Are the lenses compatible with the TE-Q1?
Is a adapter available?

Hi Klaus,
i tryed to PN you but your inbox seems to be full.
No, these lenses are not compatible straigth out of the box and there is no adapter readily available. You can adapt them but this requires to remove at least the front part of the housing as the back focal length or working distance of those lenses is rel. short. You have to get them pretty close to the detector and this is not possible with the original housing of the TE camera(s).

I did a relatively simple adapter for a FLIR 36mm lens to the stock TE-Q1 which may be for sale in the near future (together with the TE-Q1+) as I did an 'upgrade' ;-). A 50mm lens with the same mount is also available and should work with this adapter as is. One of those is currently on sale on ebay too.  But be aware that due to the different F-number the factory calibration is not accurate anymore with either of the suggested lenses.

Regards
Toni

Hi Toni,
an upgrade sounds good  :-+ What's it? My inbox has now free capacity, so maybe you can try to send me the data for the adapter?
Do you sell the lens? Have you got a link for it? Or what's the price for the lens with adapter?
