Abstract

A camera lens assembly includes a focusing mount having a receiving lug and optical elements, which are arranged in the focusing mount, and define an optical axis. An adapter ring has a first planar surface and a second planar surface which are parallel to each other. The first planar surface is in contact engagement against a camera-side contact surface of the focus mount and the second planar surface is in contact with a lens-side contact surface of a lens mount. The lens mount has a tubular-shaped lens mount socket and lens mount attachment elements which are configured to coact with the camera mount attachment elements of a camera.
