Microscope Camera Control Unit Compact, easy-to-use tablet-type microscope camera control unit. DS-Fi3 can be optionally connected to the DS-L4 tablet-style control unit, eliminating the need and space requirements of a desktop PC. DS-L4 has a large number of built-in functions for measurement and annotations, and has built-in security for network connectivity. Tablet-type camera control unit Large, 10.1 inch, touch-screen 1920 x 1200 pixel display: The DS-Fi3 can be set and operated simply and easily through the tablet by touch, or by connecting Bluetooth accessories such as a keyboard or...

Two Large Sensor high resolution 16.25-megapixel CMOS image sensors for microscopy Two Nikon FX-format CMOS image sensor cameras join the Digital Sight series of microscope digital cameras: the DS-Ri2 color digital camera and the DS-Qi2 monochrome digital camera. High pixel density and large field of view coupled with USB3.0 high speed data transfer offer fast frame rates and high resolution images with these CMOS image sensors. Large Format CMOS image sensors Nikon manufactures CMOS image sensors and imaging technologies for professional DSLR cameras, and now has optimized our sensors for...

Time-lapse images (every 1 second) of LLC-PK1 cells with GFP-EB3 tubulin. Each image represents the maximum intensity projection of the timelapse, allowing visualization of the end-binding protein located on the microtubule plus-ends, and allowing tracing of the microtubule path. DS-Qi2 captures an extremely large field of view, but still represents very fine details as demonstrated in this cropped timelapse sequence from a large FOV image.
