MAGUS CHD40 is a camera model for integration with a microscope. The camera shoots in 4K resolution (3840x2160 px) and can automatically convert the image to Full HD (1920x1080 px) if required by an external monitor. The device is equipped with three types of interfaces: HDMI for connecting to a TV, monitor or projector, as well as USB 3.0 and Wi-Fi for connecting to a computer. The frame rate is 30 fps regardless of the connection type. The camera is equipped with integrated software which, in addition to taking photos and recording videos, allows you to edit the image and even take measurements of the observed object. The device generates a high-quality image without delays or tearing, and the object is clearly visible, without distortion, even if it is moving.
Sensor
Inside the camera is a SONY Starvis color CMOS sensor. These sensors use backlight technology that provides high light sensitivity with a small matrix. The sensor size in the MAGUS CHD40 camera is 1/1.2" with a pixel size of 2.9x2.9 μm. The light sensitivity of the device is 1028 mV with a shutter speed of 1/30 second: the camera can take high-quality photos in low light conditions. To obtain an extremely wide field of view without distortion, use an adapter with magnification of 0.75x–1x.
Software
The camera is ready for use thanks to a set of applications (equipped with built-in software and software installed from the included software CD). and their structures, and edit images. To take measurements, be sure to first calibrate the software for each lens using a calibration slide. You can connect the camera to a TV, monitor or projector via the HDMI interface as well as to a computer via USB 3.0 or Wi-Fi interface. Connection via HDMI or USB interfaces generates an image with 4K resolution; when connected to a computer using a Wi-Fi adapter, a Full HD image is created.
Pairing with other devices
The camera supports additional devices. You can connect a mouse (included) to the USB connector. Working with it will avoid vibrations that occur when interacting directly with the device. You can save search results to the included SD card or to a flash drive. You can connect one of the special MAGUS monitors, which are mounted directly on the camera and create a complete viewing system.
Installing the microscope
There are two ways to install the camera on the microscope: in the trinocular tube or in the eyepiece tube. In both cases, you will need the C-mount adapter from the microscope package to connect the devices. An adapter ring for the tube diameter is also used for installation in the eyepiece tube.
