The default USB 3.0 configuration provides 30 frames per second imaging at the full 2K x 2K resolution. If a faster frame rate is needed now or later, the camera can be easily upgraded by purchasing a high-speed PCI x8 Camera Link board and cable. The addition of the Camera Link board to a user’s computer makes 100 frames per second of full-resolution data possible.
This generation 2 sCMOS camera has quantum efficiency values of over 70% at 600nm and 50% at 750nm. In every configuration and at every speed, the ORCA-Flash4.0 has only 1.3 electrons median (1.9 electrons rms) read noise. It also features a 6.5μm×6.5μm pixel size, which is ideal for microscopic applications. The combination of these features makes the ORCA-Flash4.0 camera suitable for demanding microscopy applications such as super-resolution microscopy, TIRF microscopy, ratio imaging, high-speed calcium ion imaging, FRET, real-time confocal microscopy, and many more.
