MAGUS CHD40 is a camera model for integration with a microscope. The camera records in 4K resolution (3840x2160 pixels) and can automatically convert the image to Full HD (1920x1080 pixels) if required for an external display.
The camera is equipped with three types of interfaces: HDMI for connection to a TV, monitor or projector, and USB 3.0 and Wi-Fi for connection to a computer.
The frame rate is 30 frames per second regardless of the connection type. The camera has integrated software that allows you not only to take photos and videos, but also to edit the image and even take measurements of the observed object. The camera produces a high-quality image without delays or outliers, and the object can be seen clearly and without distortion, even when it is moving.
Sensor: The camera is equipped with a SONY Starvis CMOS sensor. These sensors use backlit technology, which offers high light sensitivity with a small matrix size. The sensor is 1/1.2 inches in size with a pixel size of 2.9x2.9 μm. The light sensitivity of the instrument is 1028 mV at a shutter speed of 1/30 second: the camera can capture high-quality images even in poor lighting conditions. To achieve the extremely wide field of view without distortion, we recommend using an adaptor with a magnification of 0.75x to 1x.
Software: The camera is ready to use right out of the box thanks to a range of applications (with integrated software and software installed from the supplied software CD). It can take photos and videos, measure structures and edit images. To take measurements, you must first calibrate the software for each lens using a calibration slide. When connected via the HDMI or USB interfaces, an image with 4K resolution is produced; when connected to a computer via a Wi-Fi adaptor, a Full HD image is output.
Pairing with other instruments: The camera supports additional instruments. You can connect a mouse (included) to the USB port. This prevents vibrations that occur when interacting directly with the device. You can save the results on the supplied SD card or on a flash drive. You can connect one of the special MAGUS screens, which attach directly to the camera and create a complete visualisation system.
