Other essential
components
To be able to use the camera, you'll also need the following components:
Computer with MS-Windows operating system
Light microscope with camera adapter or something similar, for example a
macro stand
Software to operate the camera (see chapter 3.4 on page 14).
1.2 Intended use
This camera is intended to be used for the acquisition of digital images, but not for
clinical diagnostic purposes.
1.3 Specifications
Properties of the
OLYMPUS LC30
The OLYMPUS LC30 is a CMOS color camera with a high frame rate. It was
specially developed for acquisitions using light microscopy. The LC30 is of a
compact design and can be connected to all common types of light microscope by
a C-mount. The ICC profile technology guarantees an optimal color mapping.
Binning modes
The OLYMPUS LC30 has three binning modes. In binning mode, the camera's
CMOS sensor combines neighboring pixels into pixel blocks. This results in a higher
sensitivity and a shorter processing time, but also in a lower resolution.
