Since I was so impressed with the Mobius platform as a dash cam, I bought one to use at work as a general mini camera to record scientific experiment. Unfortunately, the standard lens offerings were rather limiting.
I discovered that someone makes an adapter so that I could use a C-mount lens on the Mobius:

This seems to work for a standard C-mount CCTV lens we had laying around. Unfortunately, the CS-mount lenses could not be focused even with the adapter screwed all the way in . The CS lens need to be at 12.5 mm from the sensor vs 17.5 mm for the C.
BTW, this compact and free little utility called Webcam Viewer is nice for those on the PC for focusing the Mobius:
