Slow Motion Mega Pixel High Speed Video Camera - Ultima APX-RS

Source: Photron, Inc.

The Ultima APX-RS slow-motion video imager camera captures 3000 frames per second at 1,024 x 1,024 pixel resolution, up to 10,000 fps at 512 x 512 pixel resolution and a 250,000 fps at reduced resolution. This high speed CMOS sensor camera with true 10-bit monochrome (30-bit color) fidelity has excellent anti-blooming properties and variable (square or rectangular) aspect ratios...

Details

The new slow-motion video camera captures 3000 frames per second (fps) at 1,024 x 1,024 pixel resolution, up to 10,000 fps at 512 x 512 pixel resolution and an unparalleled 250,000 fps at reduced resolution. This easy-to-use high speed CMOS sensor camera with true 10-bit monochrome (30-bit color) fidelity has excellent anti-blooming properties and variable (square or rectangular) aspect ratios. Photron's ultima APX-RS single-piece enclosure is designed to withstand harsh conditions and operate reliably in truly hostile environments up to 100G's

Utilizing the same super sensitive 10 bit CMOS sensor as used in the award winning ultima APX, the RS is engineered as solid one piece design camera, easily able to withstand shock forces as large as 100G's.

Available with Gigabit, FireWire, Ethernet or optical communications, this compact camera can shutter as fast as 2 microseconds and is easily operated in the field without requiring any computer attached at all. The supplied remote keypad enables full camera setup, operation and image replay and is intuitive and easy to use. When a PC is used, Photron's PFV software makes setting up and operating multiple cameras a doddle, regardless of the interface used, our FireWire is safe and reliable.

The camera can be controlled by either Photron's proprietary FASTCAM Viewer software (included) or the handheld control keypad (also included) which permits camera setup and image viewing without a computer. For operating multiple cameras, the intuitive software enables full camera control, video replay and image download capabilities via PC. Memory partitioning enables multiple recordings to be made with no time-consuming downloads needed between recordings. Operating as fast as two microseconds, the global electronic shutter provides razor-sharp imagery of any high speed event or phenomena. Photron's ultima APX-RS camera performs extremely well under low light conditions with unsurpassed light sensitivity of 4800+ ISO/ASA at 0dB gain.

Other features include the dual-speed recording mode which allows users to change frame rates during the actual recording time, and Photron's exclusive Over Exposure Protection ™, which ensures optimum image quality for each pixel, regardless of illumination levels within the recorded image. The image memory can be expanded to facilitate 6-second recording duration at 1,000 fps.
