The short answer is that specimen details appear closer together at low magnification. To resolve these structures, a higher resolution camera is recommended. If you image a great deal using 2x and 4x objectives, you may want to consider our 3 chip HD-336U or even...

Yes, you can record 1080p or 1080i HD images. Connect the HD-336U camera to a computer with USB-3 inputs, open our proprietary MagicApp software, and direct the stored images to a file on your computer. Because these recordings are uncompressed HD images and require large...
We recommend a 0.35x (no more than a 0.4x) to use with your microscope. In those situations where a higher magnification c-mount is required by the microscope configuration, we recommend an optical coupler between the camera and the c-mount to reduce the magnification back to...
The architecture of the HD-336U allow for a significant increase in horizontal resolution. A prism in the HD-336U camera head splits incoming white light into its R,G, and B components – one wavelength per chip. The full resolution of each chip can be used to...
When the video signal is increased using GAIN, the entire signal is amplified, including noise. Binning achieves a similar result without signal amplification, so noise remains unchanged. Testing under actual conditions will determine if reduced spatial resolution is acceptable....
Binning is an image processing function that combines a cluster of pixels into a single pixel and is used to increase brightness without amplifying noise under lower light level conditions. The HD-336U implements a 2x2 matrix binning whereby four pixels becomes one larger pixel. The...

Detail refers to the sharpness of the image, which may also be called edge enhancement. The HD cameras are factory programmed to provide best edge sharpness without introducing noise. If your image does require further adjustment, an on-screen menu provides access to edge sharpness and...
A CMOS camera uses a single-chip Bayer filter, where 50% of the pixels are dedicated to Green and 25% each for Red and Blue (roughly 1MP for green and 500k for the others). In the 3-CMOS camera, three sensors are used and each sensor is...
