MAGUS CBF30 Digital Camera

The MAGUS CBF30 digital camera is designed for the brightfield microscopy technique. The camera is equipped with a 6.3MP sensor and produces realistic images at a resolution of 3072x2048pix. The camera is recommended for use with 4x, 10x, 20x, and 40x objectives. When working with low magnification objectives, the camera will enable you to see more fine details. Video is recorded at 59fps at maximum resolution. Videos are smooth, with soft and subtle transitions between frames. The movement of the sample is displayed in real time with no delays. The camera makes it easy to work with samples that are moving and is suitable for classroom demonstrations. The resolution can be reduced to 1536x1024pix, if required. The camera is equipped with a USB 3.0 interface. The data transfer speed is 10 times faster than USB 2.0 cameras. The high-speed camera is recommended for professional laboratories, research, or university training.

Sensor

The camera is equipped with a SONY Exmor backlit color CMOS sensor. This technology increases light sensitivity and improves camera performance in low-light conditions. The 1/1.8" sensor with 2.4x2.4µm pixels provides light sensitivity of 425mV at 1/30s. To achieve the maximum field of view without distortion, we recommend using an adapter with a magnification of 0.5x to 0.75x.

Software features

The camera uses software to display images on an external display, take photographs, record video, edit images, and measure linear and angular dimensions of objects and their structures. Before taking measurements, the software must be calibrated for each objective with a calibration slide.

Installation

The camera is mounted on the microscope in the trinocular tube/camera port using the C-mount adapter (included). To mount the camera in an eyepiece tube instead of an eyepiece, you will need a special C-mount adapter and adapters to fit the tube diameter (not included).

Key features:

• For brightfield microscopy 4x, 10x, 20x, and 40x objectives
• 6.3MP resolution: when working with low magnification objectives, the camera will allow you to see more fine details
• 59fps for observing samples that are moving, recording video, and moving the preparation without jerkiness or delays
