Fast live image

Designed to provide highest versatility and cost-effectiveness, the cameras of the ProgRes® CMOS range allow for quick and precise setting of specimen and microscope, and hence provide comfortable operation. Fast live images meet the requirements of professionals, and the outstanding CMOS technology makes these ProgRes® cameras the first choice imaging solution for usage in education institutes and training labs.

Jeoptik CamerasHigh speed and high resolution

The new generation of ProgRes® CMOS based USB 2.0 and FireWire cameras offers rapid image refresh rates of up to 90fps@VGA. Resolutions from 1 up to 5 mega pixels allow for optimal performance in low as well as high magnifications. Due to the large pixel size of 5.2 μm² the ProgRes® CT1 delivers high frame rates of 30 fps in full resolution and offers high sensitivity for best image quality.

Fields of application (among others)

  • Material science
  • Quality control
  • Image documentation
  • Pathology
  • Image Archiving
  • Education and teaching

Configured with standard interfaces such as C-Mount, USB2.0 and IEEE1394a FireWire, the CMOS based microscope cameras ProgRes® CT1, ProgRes® CT3 and ProgRes® CT5 easily connect to any microscope and computer.

Delivery includes ProgRes® CapturePro image acquisition software with comprehensive functionality designed for intuitive handling. The ProgRes® CT3 camera is dedicated to brightfield and reflective light microscopy, but also suitable for many other contrast methods in light microscopy.
