FASTCAM Mini AX100 /AX50
COMPACT HIGH-SPEED CAMER AS

Outstanding Light Sensitivity in a
Compact Package
The Photron FASTCAM Mini AX100 and Mini AX50 high-speed cameras
provide high frame rates, extraordinary light sensitivity and superior
image quality in a compact, lightweight and rugged camera design.
Providing 1,024 x 1,024 pixel resolution at up to 4,000 frames per
second (fps) and reduced resolutions to 540,000 fps, the Mini AX100
and Mini AX50 deliver the performance required for demanding
industrial, military and laboratory applications.
With light sensitivity of ISO 40,000 monochrome and ISO 16,000 color
(using the ISO 12232 Ssat standard), the FASTCAM Mini AX100 and
Mini AX50 have better sensitivity than other mid-range high-speed
cameras. Higher light sensitivity means that less additional lighting is
required to capture a high-speed event. It also means that faster frame
rates, shorter shutter speeds and greater depths of field are provided
under equivalent lighting conditions.
Contained within a 120mm x 120mm x 94mm camera body weighing
just 1.5kg, the FASTCAM Mini AX100 and Mini AX50 are uniquely suited
for use in a wide range of applications. The cameras are designed for
operation in high shock and vibration environments, allowing them to
be utilized in automotive crash test facilities and on military test ranges.
The FASTCAM Mini AX100 and Mini AX50 are identical with a single
exception. The Mini AX100 is the faster camera, providing 4,000 fps at
full resolution. The lower priced Mini AX50 allows 2,000 frames per
second at full resolution.
Target applications include:

• Biomechanics
• Life sciences
• Material sciences

• Onboard and offboard automotive safety testing
• Defense and aerospace research
• Fluid dynamics / PIV
