Camera 10 Color

Colour cameras produce quick results, monochrome cameras capture more detail.

The full well capacity indicates how many electrons a single pixel can hold. The larger the chip, the more sensitive it is to light, and the more electrons it can absorb. But what does that mean? The noise is reduced at a large full well capacity and the ability to reproduce very bright and dark objects simultaneously increases.

The bit depth is also referred to as the dynamic range of a chip. The number of bits in a picture also determines how many different shades of grey can be displayed. The depth of the image information depends directly on it. In an image taken with 1 bit depth, you will only see black and white dots. In this case, you can hardly call it a picture. Many details that the naked eye can discern are missing. 16 bits means the presentation of more than 65.000 shades of grey.

The maximum exposure time in minutes that is possible with this camera.

Microlenses increase the light extraction efficiency of a sensor.

Indicates the type or construction of the chip.

The chip size comprises the outer dimensions of the chip. The larger the chip, the larger the image field produced.
