C11254-10B (ORCA-D2) ORCA-D2 Dual CCD CameraCapture dual wavelength or multi-focal plane images simultaneously with full field ov view and your choice of wavelengths


Click image to enlarge

The ORCA-D2 allows you to capture dual wavelength or multi-focal plane images simultaneously, at wavelengths of your choice and with afull field of view in each- a unique combination that simplifies the challenges of conventional FRET and ratio imaging techniques.

During image capture, the camera automatically adjusts X axis, Y axis, Z axis and rotation to provide high high registration dual wavelength or multi-focal plane images.

ORCA-D2 is supported by the following software packages:

  • MetaMorph (v7.3.3)
  • LabView
  • MicroManager

Part Number C11254-10B (ORCA-D2)
Name of product ORCA-D2 Dual CCD Camera
Features
  • Simultaneous capture of dual wide-field images with the full field of view in each.
    • Dual wavelength imaging - capture simultaneous full field of view dual wavelength images even when the intensities differ significantly.
    • Selectable wavelength pairs - by changing optical blocks, you can select your wavelengths. Hamamatsu offers three types of optical blocks for different wavelength ranges.
    • Dual focal point imaging - capture simultaneous full field of view images at different focal points in the same sample at any wavelength or illumination technique. Hamamatsu offers a 50/50 reflector optical block for this purpose
  • Easy setup
    • Auto-correction of image alignment for X axis, Y axis, and rotation through on-board memory in each optical block. .
    • Auto-correction for spectral focal plane (Z axis) changes or multi focal point imaging through the combination of on board memory in each optical block and a motorized Z axis for one CCD.
  • High-sensitivity image from visible to near-infrared
    • Dual light mode - two modes (high, low) are available for different situations.
    • Maximum quantum efficiency over 70% - in low light mode, sensitivity at 700nm is nearly twice that of conventional ICX285 device used in most other scientific CCD cameras.
Applications
  • Ratio imaging
  • Single and dual wavelength fluorescence microscopy, FRET
