This product is no longer available.
- 1 to 8 MHz 16-Bit digitization
- 32 MByte camera memory
- Field upgradeable firmware
- Subarray readout and fast sequencing modes
The F32 represents the next step in the evolution of the Alta line of cameras with faster readout speeds. The Alta F32 has a 3-megapixel Truesense Imaging full frame sensor with very high quantum efficiency and high dynamic range when compared to interline CCDs. Low noise and small pixels are ideal for fluorescence microscopy and OEM applications. All Alta systems are backed by a 2 year warranty on the camera and lifetime warranty on the CCD chamber integrity.
