Nikon Digital Sight DS-5Mc Cooled Camera Head
Nikon Updated: 2007-06-20Provides high resolution image capture in a variety of applications including brightfield, fluorescence and darkfield.
The DS-5Mc uses a Peltier cooling mechanism to cool the CCD to 20° C below ambient temperature. This enables it to suppress thermal background noise and obtain high-contrast images when capturing fluorescence images. The DS-5Mc also features a 5-megapixel CCD with outstanding color reproduction, large field-of-view, and high spatial resolution, making it an ideal choice for users needing a camera that acquires high quality brightfield and fluorescence images.
5-Megapixel Color Matrix CCD

PC/Mac web browser support is also available for live image displays and camera control via network connection.
Peltier Cooling Mechanism
The DS-5Mc uses a Peltier cooling mechanism to cool the area around the imaging section to 20ºC below room temperature (compared to its un-cooled state). This enables it to supress thermal background noise and obtain high-contrast images when capturing fluorescence images that require long exposure times. The DS-5Mc also features a 5-megapixel CCD that captures microstructures at a high resolution of 2560 x 1920 pixels.
DS-L2 Standalone Controller
The DS-5Mc can be fitted with a standalone control unit that includes an 8.4 inch LCD monitor. This standalone control unit can observe samples and capture images without connection to a PC.
