ZEISS Axiocam Family – Designed for Scientific Microscopy

Unlike conventional digital cameras for photography or industrial inspection, ZEISS microscope cameras are specifically optimized for scientific research, laboratory applications, and documentation. Different models offer variations in pixel size, sensor dimensions, and frame rates to meet the diverse requirements of microscopy. Pixel size influences sensitivity and resolution, while lower pixel counts enable higher frame rates and larger sensors provide improved field-of-view coverage.

ZEISS Axiocam 705 Color – Fast 5 Megapixel Microscope Camera

The Axiocam 705 color is a high-performance scientific camera that combines speed and resolution. With 5 megapixels and frame rates exceeding 60 frames per second at full resolution, it captures even fast dynamic processes without sacrificing image quality. Subsampling and region-of-interest (ROI) readout enable recording speeds of several hundred frames per second.
