In the F.A.Q they mention that it can be modified for telescopes:

====

Can I use it on my telescope?

With a bit of modification, yes. We have seen many astrophotography projects with the official Pi cameras, you can follow the same instructions.

====

I wonder if it can be also modified for PCB inspection microscope purposes? I have a C-mount lens already:

More context on the idea I've been thinking about on: https://twitter.com/braincode/status/1464964031576379400

So... can this new Arducam 16MP autofocus be easily modded so that it:

1) Conserves the autofocus feature.

2) Accepts a C-mount lens like the one listed above with the right distance from the sensor?
