Micropublisher Imaging System Specifications
The QImaging MicroPublisher digital imaging system delivers high resolution color images for microscopy documentation and publication. The 3.3 megapixel CCD sensor and 30-bit color digitization produce high quality color images of brightfield, dark-field and fluorescence work. For demanding low light applications, the MicroPublisher Cooled model minimizes thermal noise during long exposure times for high quality, low light images. The FireWire™ IEEE 1394 digital interface allows ease of use and installation with a single wire connection from the camera to the computer (including laptops) for full computer control of the camera. The Micropublisher includes QCapture software for Windows® and Mac® based software systems and Adobe® Photoshop® Elements for image enhancements. A Software Development Kit (SDK) is available for interfacing with custom software.
