Microscope camera head DS-Qi2

digitalhigh dynamic rangeCMOS

Capture low light fluorescence and large fields of view. Equipped with a Nikon digital SLR camera FX-format CMOS sensor optimized for microscopy, the DS-Qi2 is an ultra-high quality 16.25 megapixel monochrome camera that features high pixel density, high sensitivity and low noise. The DS-Qi2 is an excellent choice for applications in quantitative fluorescence imaging. Key Features Large format CMOS sensors Nikon manufactures CMOS sensors and imaging technologies for professional D-SLR cameras, which are now optimized for microscopy. High sensitivity Detects even faint fluorescent signals 7.3µm pixels, high quantum efficiency, and very low read noise allow the DS-Qi2 to even read faint fluorescent signals. Excellent linearity Reliable quantitative analysis made possible With a linearity error of ±1%, the DS-Qi2 is a superb tool for measuring intensities in fluorescence samples, including time-based intensity measurement and ratiometric measurement. Low noise Acquires dim fluorescent signals with ultra-low noise 2.2 electrons read noise, coupled with a large full-well capacity, allows for the acquisition of fluorescence images with very little noise and a very high dynamic range. Time-lapse photography Fluorescent time-lapse imaging through integration with NIS-Elements software With a large field of view, high pixel density, and low noise, the DS-Qi2 is ideal for time-resolved imaging applications.
