Cameras can be supplied with a high resolution CCD option
A hi-res CCD is shown on a custom compact camera
The hi-res CCD provides up to 2048x2048 pixel resolution
This gives a nominal 50µ resolution over 100x100mm
The CCD is also larger, so the camera is more efficient
The dynamic range is 16-bit, better for precise measurement
And of course it is cooled and allows long exposures
It connects via a 10m amplified USB data/control cable
Additional 10m amplified USB extensions can be provided
The hires CCD provides semi-professional imaging at low cost
As such, it is a first step toward an advanced imaging camera
X-ray (shown) or neutron scintillators can be swapped
