Nikon Digital Sight 10
Microscope camera for color and black and white images with large field of view and high resolution.
Large field of view and high resolution in one
Nikon’s DS-10 camera is the latest development in the FX format for microscopy. The large CMOS sensor has a resolution of 6K and a guaranteed field of view of 25 mm*, giving you very high resolution images over a wide field of view. This means that larger parts of the specimen can be imaged in a single image.
*applies to Ti2 and Ni microscopes
One camera for both fluorescence and color images
This camera can be used both for colored preparations such as eosin/hematoxylin and for fluorescence. Usually color cameras are not well suited for fluorescence applications because the sensor is not sensitive enough. This high sensitivity monochrome camera can easily be converted to an RGB camera by adding a color filter in front of the sensor. The advantage is that you can get a combined color and fluorescence image of your specimen with the same pixel size and you don’t have to change cameras between shots. Switching between color and black and white can be done manually, or by control in the NIS-Elements software.
Phototoxicity is a concern when working with fluorescence and sensitive preparations such as living cells. The longer the wavelength used for excitation of your fluorescent markers, the less harmful it is. The DS-10’s monochrome sensor supports the nIR (700 nm), which ordinary color cameras rarely do. This opens up the possibility of using fluorescent probes in the nIR range which are excited in a much less harmful wavelength range. Your cells will survive longer!
