[Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

[Olga Filippova]

Hello Elham,
all camera models made with 3D-printed parts are just examples of the
possible configurations. We offer our clients the freedom to modify camera
configuration based on their needs and application. The camera with 4
sensors can be arranged in any way you  want to design it. It is also
possible to purchase the example Inline camera. It has a fixed baseline of
250mm, but it can be larger, limited only by the cable length. The longest
cable we offer is 450 mm, so the largest baseline could be something like
700mm.
Please note that we are working on the waterproof camera body for the
H-camera, not the Inline camera.

The 4 image sensors are synchronized and are taking images simultaneously.

The lens we offer is Evetar, N125B04530WR1 with EFL=4.5mm, the focus is
fixed on infinity. http://www3.elphel.com/accessories
You can also choose your own lens (C or CS mount, or M12 mount).

Best Regards,
