None of these Toshiba digital cameras have a screw thread on their lens housing and cannot screw directly to the Unilink. However the Linkarm adapter attached to the Unilink will provide a permanent framework to attach any camera by its tripod bush so that it is held securely “looking” down the Unilink. The unique adjustment mechanism of the Linkarm means that it will fit any camera to the Unilink with a few simple adjustments. The frame is then secured in shape using the allen key provided. The Linkarm can be removed from the camera without the frame shape be released,and the camera can be reintroduced very simply when required. Full instructions provided.

These cameras have quite small lenses that have a rectangular frame around the lens that may cause field of view problems.. If you are in doubt hold the camera against the eyepiece of your microscope and see what sort of result you get. If you are satisfied and the camera has a tripod bush then the Unilink and the Linkarm would be required.
