Product description

The Aluma AC455 is a research grade, high performance 61 megapixel scientific imaging camera.

The IMX455 sensor features extremely high quantum efficiency, and produces low-noise 16-bit images with high dynamic range.  It covers an image area of 36 mm x 24 mm with 3.76 micron square pixels, resulting in high resolution 61 megapixel images.  For the utmost in reliability and speed, the Aluma AC455 features a 10 gigabit-per-second Ethernet interface.

You can select either the standard Monochrome version, Aluma AC455M, or the one-shot color Aluma AC455C.  For the best imaging results we recommend selecting the Monochrome model and add an AFW filter wheel.

You can also choose your adapter plate – select either the “STX” standard 3.5″ OD / 3×24 TPI internally threaded plate, or the 3″ barrel style adapter.

New!  We are now shipping Enhanced Cooling versions – Aluma AC455ME (monochrome) and Aluma AC455CE (color).
