The C-HAF – Microscope Camera from Optika Microscopes is a powerful addition to any laboratory setup. Available through Apex Scientific in South Africa, this camera provides a working distance from 10 cm to infinity. As a result, it enables fast, non-contact imaging of multi-layered specimens with excellent detail.
Versatile Zoom and Control
This model includes both 1x–14x optical zoom and 1x–6x electronic zoom. Therefore, it allows users to examine specimens with incredible precision. You can control all camera functions directly on-screen using the included mouse. Additionally, you can capture images and videos directly to an SD card, streamlining your workflow and improving data management.
Advanced Features for Accurate Imaging
The C-HAF camera includes a variety of built-in features that improve image accuracy and usability:
- White Balance Control: Adjust white balance automatically or manually. You can also fine-tune RGB settings to achieve perfect color accuracy.
- Exposure Settings: Choose between automatic or manual exposure to optimize clarity in different lighting conditions.
- HDR Functionality: Combine multiple exposures into one high-quality image. This is especially useful when dealing with high-contrast samples.
- External Trigger Function: Connect to an external controller for capturing files in a preset sequence. This function improves workflow efficiency.
- Custom Grids: Overlay horizontal and vertical lines in adjustable colors and positions. These on-screen grids assist with alignment and measurements.
Moreover, the C-HAF includes mounting holes for easy attachment to custom supports. You can pair it with the boom stand (IS-02) or the compact stand with table clamp or wall mount (IS-03), depending on your lab’s configuration.
