QImaging optiMOS™ Scientific CMOS Camera

26 Nov 2013

This new Scientific CMOS camera is optimized for fluorescence microscopy and features faster frame rates and lower noise. optiMOS delivers 10x the time resolution of CCD cameras without trading off on resolution or sensitivity. An alternative to traditional CCD cameras, optiMOS, combines speed with high resolution and increased sensitivity:
• Speed to resolve fast cellular events
• Sensitivity to resolve low luminescence signals due to short exposures
• Resolution to resolve small cell structures


Offered as the affordable sCMOS solution at $9,950 USD, optiMOS brings the advantages of low noise and high speed imaging to a broader range of cell biology applications. Key Features Include:
• < 2e- of electronic noise enables high frame rates without compromising sensitivity
• 10x the time resolution of CCD cameras
• 45% larger field of view than standard 1.4 megapixel fluorescence CCD cameras
• 100 FPS streaming to disk without expensive and complex RAID 0 configurations


optiMOS is ideally suited for cell biologists using live cell, multicolor fluorescence; biophysicists studying membrane dynamics and protein and lipid trafficking; as well as neuroscientists looking at ion transport such as electrophysiology, calcium imaging and ratiometric imaging
