AmScope MU Series 9.0MP USB 3.0 Global-shutter CMOS C-Mount Microscope Camera
Key Features
- Highly-sensitive monochrome 9MP USB 3.0 camera for microscopy
- Cutting-edge global-shutter CMOS technology provides better precision in capturing subjects in motion
- High responsivity improves quality and reduces capture times for fluorescence and darkfield applications
- Professional software for PC with extensive imaging tools specific to microscopy
- Includes calibration slide for on-screen measurements
This pinnacle in imaging-technology provides high sensitivity and speed with global-shutter scanning. The MU903-GS uses Sony's cutting-edge 9-megapixel global-shutter CMOS sensor for high resolution with high quantum-efficiency. Using a 1" optical format, larger pixels can be used to increase well-capacity, improving sensitivity and dynamic-range. This translates to shorter exposure-times, lower noise, and the ability to better capture faint emissions. The global shutter improves imaging of moving subjects through simultaneous pixel-capture, avoiding the focal-plane distortion seen in rolling-shutter sensors. With a maximum framerate of 60fps, a new level of responsiveness will be seen during live-viewing, with .
With a large 1" sensor, this camera is best-suited for microscopes with a direct C-mount interface. Smaller photo-ports, such as 23mm ports, will typically cause vignetting, unless used with a magnifying relay lens such as our RU100.
With software available for Windows, Mac, and Linux, this camera package is a multi-platform imaging solution. The included Windows software offers image-development and measurement tools, as well as advanced compositing features such as image-stitching and extended-depth-of-focus. With the ability to calibrate scales at multiple magnifications, the software can be used for multi-level inspection. Independent preview and capture resolutions allow you to view high-speed video while simultaneously capturing high-definition images. For Mac and Linux, there is a lite version of the software which can capture video and still images, and includes limited processing features.
