Microscope cameras are optimized for use in scientific research and development and are available in color and monochromatic configurations. Available in numerous configurations, microscope cameras are available to support most applications and budgets. When considering a microscope camera be sure to compare important specifications such as frame rate, sensor type, field of view, pixel density, and even cooling method. Consider how you will interface with your digital microscope camera, there are many interfacing options available such as a USB microscope camera, HDMI microscope camera, WIFI microscope camera, and many others. Microscope cameras are often compatible with standard eyepiece sizes such as 23mm and 30mm, allowing you to install the camera even if your model of microscope does not have a photo tube.

Bypass mode. Andor’s TuCam is a new generation two-camera adapter for macro or microscopic imaging applications. Available in C- or CSUX-mount, TuCam features include large aperture, exceptional transmission, very low distortion and high precision alignment using kinematic cassettes.
TuCam can be configured for simultaneous imaging from two similar cameras or as a switch between camera models with different imaging capabilities.
A full range of beam splitting optics are available with custom-designed kinematic cassettes for precision alignment. These include wavelength and polarization splitters of the highest quality as well as a first surface mirror for switching between cameras.
A variety of camera tubes & lenses is available to provide magnifications of 1.0x, 1.2x, 1.5x and 2.0x in each arm of the adapter. A filter wheel can also be integrated at the input of TuCam to enable pre-filtering of the desired emission band....

Thermoelectric cooling down to -100°C minimizes EM-amplified darkcurrent, whereas Andor’s ‘overclocked’ vertical shift speeds minimize both clock induced charge noise and vertical smear during frame transfer.
The iXon3 860 Back-Illuminated EMCCD benefits from an advanced set of user–requested features, including OptAcquire, Count Convert, Spurious Noise Filters & Signal Averaging. RealGain™ provides quantitative EM gain calibration. Sub-millisecond biology is readily accessible through use of sub-array selection, pixel binning and Cropped Sensor Mode pushes frame rates to new extremes. The speed and sensitivity of the iXon3 860 Back-Illuminated EMCCD camera also renders it ideal for adaptive optics.

Unlike any CCD or CMOS camera to come before, Neo is unique in its ability to simultaneously offer ultra-low noise, A true scientific CMOS in every sense, Neo has been conceptualised and specifically engineered to harness the full performance potential of this new and exciting sensor technology. Unlike any CCD or CMOS camera to come before, Neo is unique in its ability to simultaneously offer ultra-low noise, extremely fast frame rates, wide dynamic range, high resolution and a large field of view.
Neo breaks new boundaries in offering an exceptionally low read noise of 1 e- rms without the need for signal amplification technology. 100 frames/s can be reached with full frame readout, faster with region of interest selection. In Neo, these speeds are uniquely coupled to a dynamic range capability of 30,000:1 with 16-bit digitization.
Features: - 1 e- read noise - Offers lower detection limit than any CCD.
- 5.5 megapixel sensor format and 6.5 µm pixels - Delivers extremely sharp resolution over a 22 mm diagonal field of view: Ideal for cell microscopy and astronomy.
- Rapid frame rates - 100 fps full frame; 208 fps @ 1.4 megapixel ROI; 1688 fps @ 144 x 128 ROI, offers unparalleled temporal resolution.
- TE cooling to -40° C - Minimization of dark current to maintain low noise advantage under all exposure conditions. Minimization of hot pixel blemishes meaning more useful pixels. Fan-off mode for vibration sensitive set-ups.
- UltraVac™ - Sustained vacuum integrity and unequalled cooling with 5 year warranty; complete sensor protection.
- Dual-Gain Amplifiers - Maximum well depth and lowest noise simultaneously, affording extended dynamic range of 30,000:1
- 4 GB on-head image buffer – enables bursts of 100 frames/sec @ 16-bit & facilitates advanced data processing.
- Extensive FPGA on-head data processing - Essential to ensure best image quality and quantitative fidelity from sCMOS technology.
- Single window design – Single input window with double AR coating ensures maximum photon throughput.
- Rolling and global shutter - Maximum exposure and readout flexibility across all applications.
- High Quantum Efficiency - Optimized for popular green/red emitting fluorophores.
- Data flow monitor - Innovatively manage acquisition capture rates vs data bandwidth limitations.
- iCam - Market leading exposure switching with minimal overheads.
- Dynamic Baseline Clamp - Essential to ensure quantitative accuracy across the image area and between successive images of a kinetic series.
- Spurious Noise Filter - Real time FPGA filter that identifies and compensates for spurious high noise pixels.
- Comprehensive trigger modes & I/O - Communication and synchronization within intricate experimental set-ups.
- Cameralink - Cameralink interface permits high bandwidth data spooling to PC, allowing fast continuous kinetic series.
