Frequently Asked Questions

How does the cooled camera enhance image quality?

The Peltier cooling mechanism maintains the CCD at -20˚C, which reduces thermal noise and allows for clear images even with faint fluorescence or darkfield specimens.

What is the maximum resolution achievable by the system?

Both standard and cooled heads boast a 5.0-megapixel 2/3-inch CCD, achieving resolutions up to 2,560 x 1,920 pixels.

Can I use this camera with an external computer for analysis?

Yes, connecting via USB2.0 allows you to perform capturing, analyzing, and processing images using single software (Act-2U).

Is it possible to operate the system without a PC connection?

Yes, stand-alone controllers are available options that allow photo capture and monitoring based on your specific observation needs.
