A plurality of lens cartridges may be mounted within the nose piece to focus light on a beam splitter mounted within the main body housing. The beam splitter provides an image along both an axial beam path and a transverse beam path relative to the main body housing. A video camera may be mounted on the transverse axis to receive and image with a magnification depending on the focal length of the lens cartridge. A 35-mm camera may be attached to the main body housing on the axial beam path to receive an image having a focally depending both on the lens cartridge as well as on a separate single or compound lens located between the beam splitter and the 35-mm camera. Conveniently, mounted rings for either a bayonet-type mount or C-type mount may be provided for receiving the video camera.
