Olympus DP30 Monochrome Digital Camera

The Olympus DP30 is a high-sensitivity cooled monochrome digital CCD camera. With its easy-to-use software, high resolution (1360 x 1024 pixels), low noise images are acquired effortlessly. This camera is ideal for a broad range of low-light and fluorescence imaging applications requiring sensitivity.

In addition, there is a 6 channel image merging function where fluorescence and DIC combinations can be merged into one multi-color image.
