Advanced, versatile yet easy to use digital camera features low gravity lens design to reduce vibration when mounted on a microscope and up to 12 million (interpolated) output pixels
Nikon's DXM1200F digital camera produces true-to-life, high quality images that rival the performance of high-end film based cameras.
Low noise design and a new CCD provide sensitivity that is at least twice that of its predecessor.
A newly developed optional wide-field relay lens, in addition, provides increased brightness, and a 'low-gravity' lens design reduces vibration when the camera is mounted on a microscope. Nikon's new Inter Pixel Stepping (IPS) high-density imaging technology makes ultrahigh digital picture quality a reality - with breathtakingly clear, bright images composed of up to 12 million (3840x3072) output pixels.
Images captured by the camera can be transferred to a PC at a lightning 12 frames/sec - a new standard in image data transfer rates.
For intuitive operation, the DXM1200F previews images in live, still and thumbnail formats in addition to displaying the shooting conditions - all on a single PC screen.
All display windows remain unaffected by the operation of the mouse, which avoids the necessity for constant checking of window size or position.
This allows the user to concentrate on taking images - and reduces fatigue.
Gain can be set at three levels and long exposure times are possible.
Clear organisation of the exposure settings into a small on-screen area maximises the space for image display - these are always available and visible, no matter how many frames are displayed on-screen.
To capture a required area within a field of view - at the highest definition possible with the minimal amount of data space - users can select fine or quick modes.
Uniformity of image size is assured thanks to the frame selection feature.
This feature also eliminates wasteful white spaces when images are printed.
Once 'save and print' formats are entered prior to the shooting job, DXM1200F software categorises the images, sorts and saves them automatically.
Nikon has designed the DXM1200F to meet the needs of demanding professionals.
Clear, high contrast images are captured with ease.
