2.8 Megapixel Cooled Monochrome USB 3.0 Camera
Advanced Technical Features Improve Limits of Detection and Quantification
Great instruments don’t create great science, but they are essential to telling the story. Photometrics puts the right tool in your hands when the goal is fast, sensitive imaging and documentation in true plug-and-play fashion. CoolSNAP DYNO is a 2.8 MP camera that provides a large field of view for overview images, but is capable of signal binning for work at high magnification or increased sensitivity. Fixed or live, time lapse, slide scanning or dynamic cell imaging, CoolSNAP DYNO packs the punch you need in an everyday camera your lab will depend on.
CoolSNAP DYNO is packed with advanced technical features that improve limits of detection and quantification. The camera generates large amounts of data, but handles it smoothly via the new super speed USB 3.0 interface.
