Retiga-4000R

High Sensitivity IEEE 1394 FireWire® Digital CCD Camera

Monochrome or Color
The QImaging® Retiga-4000R digital
camera features enhanced well capacity and
resolution resulting in high sensitivity that is
perfect for brightfield, LCD inspection, and
automated imaging applications. A progressivescan interline CCD sensor gives a resolution of
4.19 million pixels with an aspect ratio of 1:1
in a 12-bit digital output — making it ideally
suited for the 22mm light column provided by
many microscope camera mounts. High-speed,
low-noise electronics provide linear digital
