An assembly for securing the eyepiece of an endoscope to a digital camera
includes a bar that supports the camera and a block that supports the
eyepiece. The camera can be secured to the bar using the camera's tripod
mounting hole. The block can normally move in three orthogonal linear
directions relative to the bar, but can also be locked in a selected
position relative to the bar. In this manner, the assembly can be
adjusted so that the eyepiece of the endoscope contacts or nearly
contacts the end of the barrel of the digital camera secured to the
camera bar. Then, the support block can be locked into position to clamp
the endoscope to the digital camera. A sheet is attached to one of the
components and can be draped over the camera prior to use of the camera
in a sterile environment.
