CMEX Pro

The high-speed USB-3 cameras with ImageFocus Alpha capture and analysis software are the perfect solution for today's education, laboratory and industry microscopy needs. The cameras are suitable for life science and material science microscopes as well as for stereo microscopes.

CMEX Pro

CMEX-3 Pro, CMEX-5 Pro, CMEX-10 Pro and CMEX-18 Pro USB 3.0 high speed camera The CMEX-3 Pro, CMEX-5 Pro, CMEX-10 Pro and Pro CMEX-18 cameras are equipped with 3.1, 5.1, 10 or 18 MP CMOS sensors respectively, with 12-bit grayscale conversion and 24-bit colour rendering. These cameras are equipped with a USB-3 data interface, which enables fast frame rates. ImageFocus Alpha software is also included in the scope of delivery. Besides capturing images and videos, the software allows measurements on still and live images and annotations on captured images. Compatible with Windows 10 and higher, 32 and 64 bit configurations. A 2.8 GHz 2 GB RAM computer and 17-inch monitor is recommended as a minimum requirement. A Mac OS version is available.
