LeicaDFC365FX Feature highlights :
Leica DFC365 FXoffers excellent fluorescence documentation and fast time-lapserecordings under low light conditions. Based on thestate-of-the-art Sony EXview HAD ICX285 sensor®, this cooled camerais exceptionally well suited for a wide range of fluorescenceapplications from basic fluorescence imaging to demandingapplications such as TIRF, FRET, and StructuredIllumination.
◇ Highly sensitive1.4 megapixel Sony EXview HAD ICX285 sensor®.
◇ Regulated Peltiercooling for excellent signal-to-noise ratio.
◇ Two imaging modes:standard and nIR mode with at least 1.5 times enhanced sensitivityin the near infrared range of the spectrum ( efficiency :700-1000 nm ).
Nir mode selectionprovides significant efficiency enhancement and makes thiscamera ideal for observation CY7 CY5 fluorescent dye.
◇ Three pixelclocking rates (1.6 MHz, 20 MHz, 40 MHz) for full control of image and ac speed.
◇ groundbreakingac speed with up to 21 fps in full frame and 122 fps in8x8 binning mode.
◇ high-speed livecell imaging --- unique in this class of fluorescence cameras isthe flexibility of three pixel clocking rates to define readoutspeed of the sensor. In addition to the 1.6 MHz-mode, the LeicaDFC365 FX offers 20 MHz and 40 MHz. The 40 MHz mode in particularis dedicated to fast, real-time time-lapserecording. In combination with an overlappingmode, where the signal is read out while the next image isacquired, the user can easily execute high-speed experiments. Witha maximum of 21 frames per second in full frame mode (1392 x 1040)or over 76 fps with 4 x 4 binning, the Leica DFC365 FX is thehigh-performer in this class of scientific fluorescence CCDcameras.
◇ ultimate cellprotection --- Minimizing exposure times during time-lapserecordings is crucial to avoid photo-damaging the specimen. Thesensor's high sensitivity and the careful selection of glassinterfaces within the camera – in combination with nIR mode –areideal re to protect cells and ensure optimal acconditions during live cell imaging.
