Compact solutions with built-in versatility

1CCD and 3CCD camera systems

A CCD component converts light signals into electric signals. With the 1CCD camera system, a colour filter separates the light into complementary colours which are all captured by just one CCD. In cameras that use the 3CCD approach, a prism splits the light into the three primary colours, namely red, green and blue. The individual colour information is sent to separate CCDs. Consequently, the brilliance of the colours, accuracy of detail and depth of focus are increased.

Heat-resistant components

In medical applications or specialist industrial solutions, micro cameras need to be extremely heat-resistant. Which is why selected components in our micro cameras can withstand temperatures of up to 125° C and can be integrated into autoclavable camera systems.

Well connected

Depending on the model, the control units on the Panasonic micro cameras are equipped with SDI, analogue RGB/component, S-Video and FBAS video outputs for flexible connectivity.

A powerful individual unit or a perfect integrated solution

The camera system components are designed to work in perfect harmony, and yet can also be combined with other products.

•Lenses: Panasonic special lenses or high-grade TV lenses from third-party manufacturers

•Heads: available in 1CCD and 3CCD versions and different sizes

•Cable: available in different lengths

•Control unit: varying functional range for 1CCD or 3CCD versions, with casing or circuit board

Easy to operate

We have developed a system of user-friendly on-screen menus to ensure easy and effective use of our micro cameras. This means you can change parameters quickly and clearly during operation. It is also extremely easy to save individual settings as presets for different users. The on-screen menu of OEM components can be adapted to customer requirements.

Colours

The Panasonic micro cameras' 6 or 12-axis colour matrix allows individual colour ranges to be separately adjusted.

Natural brilliant colour

Optimised, true colour reproduction is a given – and our micro cameras’ 6 or 12-axis colour matrix allows individual colour ranges to be separately adjusted. This means that reds can be enhanced - as is common, for example, in medical applications or biological research.
