High Frame Rates
The camera’s high frame rates make it easy to navigate the sample and focus precisely on areas of interest. The 3 × 3 binning mode delivers 37 images per second at 680 × 512 pixels for smooth sample observation. A 10 frame per second full resolution mode is also available.
Excellent Color Accuracy
Color is critical for differentiating the relevant aspects of a sample, and the LC30 digital microscope camera offers excellent color fidelity and faithful color reproduction.

Easy to Install
The camera’s USB 2.0 interface and C-mount make it compatible with most systems. Only one USB 2.0 cable is needed for high-speed data transfer and to power the camera. The LC30 digital microscope camera can also be fully controlled using Olympus cellSens software.
