Motic is a microscope manufacturer, who has specialized in digital microscopy and has taken a leading position in this field in the world market.
The Motic manufacturing plant, including its research & development department with approx. 100 developing engineers, is located in Xiamen / China. Motic has branch offices all over the world, their German branch is located in the picturesque town Wetzlar, also the home of Leica and Hund.
In the middle of October, our microscopy team’s long lasting wish came true. We accepted an invitation to visit Motic in Wetzlar to receive an introduction to the brilliance of their microscope cameras.
After a comprehensive introduction, we transitioned over to the practical part of the training.
We had already viewed the HDMI-camera at the Analytica 2016 – cameras, which are particularly suitable for life transmissions in education.
The high image frequency in combination with impressive image sharpness had already convinced us by then.
The Moticam X can be recommended, if image processing and microscope are not positioned side by side. This may be in a laboratory or in the class room. The X2, which comes with its own battery and therefore acts completely independently, is particularly convincing. The control works via smartphone app or directly via the browser.
Cameras in connection with tablets are in the meantime available from almost every company, but the Motic 5MP – camera with tablet holder deserves being highlighted by its extremely sharp, colour sensitive image and the user-friendly control program. Working with these cameras is simply fun and the price/performance ratio is OK.
Just a short note concerning the well-known 3 MP and 10 MP cameras, these well proven cameras are now available as 3MP+ and 10MP+ with USB 3- port, which increases the image transfer rate at a resolution of 2046 x 1536 from 3 to 16 fps (frames per second). As a supplement there is also a 5MP+ camera available.
