Digital Microscope Camera sCMOS Cameras

Digital Microscope Camera sCMOS Cameras

The sCMOS (scientific CMOS) device, developed for scientific research, has lower noise components and improved quantum efficiency compared with conventional CMOS devices. They are used in fields that require high-speed response, wide dynamic ranges, extended field-of-view, and high-resolution and gradation capabilities.

Ideal for the Following Applications

The sCMOS camera is excellent for the following applications:

  • High-speed Ca2+ imaging
  • Ratio imaging
  • FRET (fluorescence resonance energy transfer)
  • TIRF (total internal reflection fluorescence)
  • Observation of cellular functions using GFP
  • Time lapse fluorescence imaging
  • Micromorphological observation
  • FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization)

The following manufacturers are recommended for sCMOS cameras that can be operated with Olympus cellSens software:

  • Hamamatsu Photonics
  • QImaging
  • ANDOR
