Ease of operation, high resolution and excellent color reproduction are the distinguishing features of the cameras of the ProgRes® CCD Routine range. With up to 7 mega pixels resolution, these cameras are ideal tools for high quality image documentation and elementary image analysis. To facilitate precise focusing and positioning of specimens, a fast live image up to a rate of 50 fps is available in high resolution.
The ProgRes® C7 combines a 7 mega pixels CCD sensor with a mechanical shutter, presented as the first offer of a microscope camera that requires but a single shot to deliver this high resolution with superior image quality, including of objects in motion. ProgRes® CCD Routine cameras produce excellent digital images of finest color gradings for sophisticated applications. Each camera model can work in all contrast methods in light microscopy. ProgRes® C3 and ProgRes® C5 are optionally available with cooling.
Ease of operation, high resolution and excellent color reproduction are the distinguishing features of the two microscope camera models ProgRes® C3 and ProgRes® C5. With 3 and 5 megapixel resolution, both the cameras are ideal tools for high-quality image documentation and elementary image analysis.
For daily tasks in laboratory routine, these cameras deliver perfect images at the touch of a button, controlled by ProgRes® CapturePro, an intuitive image acquisition software that provides comprehensive functionality for working with Microsoft Windows® or Apple Macintosh® operating systems.
The camera control has already been directly integrated in many of the established image processing software packages. Hence, you are free to fully concentrate on your current project task.

The ProgRes® C7 combines a 7 mega pixel CCD sensor with a mechanical shutter. It is the first offering of a microscope camera that requires but a single shot to deliver this high resolution with superior image quality, including objects in motion.
Its high spatial resolution captures even the smallest details – an indispensable prerequisite for measurement and documentation jobs where high accuracy is required. To facilitate precise focusing and positioning of specimens, a fast live image up to a rate of fifty frames per second is available.
With a color depth of 12 bits per color channel, the ProgRes® C7 produces excellent digital images of finest color gradings for sophisticated applications. Its high pixel number makes the ProgRes® C7 a particularly attractive tool in stereo microscopy or high-resolution macro photography. Jenoptik provides complete solutions for this type of integration.
Configured with standard IEEE1394 FireWire and C-Mount interfaces, the ProgRes® C7 easily connects to your microscope and computer.
Delivery includes CapturePro image acquisition software for Microsoft Windows and Apple Macintosh operating systems. It provides comprehensive functionality with intuitive operation. In addition, direct drivers are available for numerous image analysis and image archiving software packages.
