Abstract
A camera assembly has a support that defines an optical axis. A positioner is held by the support. The positioner has an opening centered on the optical axis. The positioner is pivotable about the optical axis, to a plurality of different orientations relative to the support. A coverglass is rotatably supported exterior to the positioner. The coverglass has a window that is disposed over the opening and an adjuster that is joined to the window. The rotation of the coverglass rotates one of the positioner and the support.
