When conducting high resolution imaging of live cell samples and dynamic processes, a high speed, high resolution and high sensistivity sCMOS digital camera is essential.
Aurox has specially selected microscope digital cameras from Hamamatsu, PCO and Andor for use with the Clarity and for imaging applications in confocal microscopy.
The Hamamatsu ORCA-Flash4.0 V3 expertly handles applications ranging from the acquisition of beautiful scientific images to experiments that demand detection, quantification, and speed. Improved on-board FPGA processing enables intelligent data reduction and highly refined in-camera, pixel-level calibrations. In combination with increased USB 3.0 frame rates, innovative triggering capabilities, a patented light sheet read-out mode, and individual camera noise characterization, the Hamamatsu ORCA-Flash4.0 V3 is the precision instrument for imaging.
