	Olympus Camera Control All camera functions are fully operable via the analysis image-analytical software. No matter what the actual acquisition conditions, real-time functions ensure that the entire dynamic range is utilised. This ensures optimally balanced contrast and superior image quality. The UC30´s full integration into the analysis software provides all capabilities and advantages of Soft Imaging System’s innovative solutions to all challenges of image processing and analysis, ranging from image labelling on to image archiving, report generation and e-mailing and including photo-realistic printouts – all without any need for a darkroom.

	High resolution, several frame rates The UC30´s CCD chip has a 2048 x 1536 pixel resolution. The user sees more and measurements can be carried out with even greater precision. The UC30's 12-bit dynamic range provides images of 4096 grey values (or 4096 grey values per RGB channel). This camera supports three different frame rates. The special "search mode" with a frame rate of more than 25 images per second at 688 x 512 pixels makes finding suitable areas of a sample directly on the PC screen especially convenient. The "focus mode" provides 15 images per second at 1024 x 768 pixels. And thirdly, at the highest resolution – 2048 x 1536 pixels – you're still getting 5 images per second. This means your focusing can be done in real time and upon image acquisition, you have images of temptingly persuasive quality. Furthermore, the UC30 offers a black-and-white acquisition mode. The resolution of this special mode is restricted to 1024 x 768 pixels.

	High sensitivity The highly sensitive CCD elements make it possible to detect even very weak signals. The electronic shutter offers exposure times ranging up to 160 seconds. The UC30 offers exposure times ranging from 100 µs to 10 sec.

	Easy installation FireWire™ technology guarantees that the UC30 installation is easy on any PC or laptop equipped with a FireWire™ port. The days when you were limited to a frame grabber and just a single camera are history. FireWire™ technology enables you to use multiple cameras on the same PC. The UC30 can be mounted onto all light microscopes with a C-mount adaptor. Plus, you only need one cable for getting data and power to the PC's FireWire™ port. No more clutter and no 'octopus' of cables getting in your way.
