LUMENERA INTRODUCES 11 MEGAPIXEL LARGE FORMAT CCD MICROSCOPY CAMERA

Ultra-high resolution and low light performance for medical, scientific and life science applications

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada –December 6, 2006 – Lumenera Corporation, a leading manufacturer and developer of high performance digital cameras and custom imaging solutions for scientific, industrial and security markets, is pleased to announce the release of a new large format CCD camera. The INFINITY4-11 is the newest offering from the popular INFINITY family of microscopy cameras. The INFINITY4-11, eleven megapixel sensor matches the field of view of a 35mm camera with a 43.3mm diagonal and boasts superior color reproduction - ideal for high-end scientific, industrial, medical, ophthalmic and life science applications.

The INFINITY4-11 offers 3.5 fps at full 4008 x 2672 resolution, up to 60 fps through binning and ROI. Based on a Kodak KAI-11002 progressive scan CCD sensor, this camera provides excellent sensitivity and color reproduction for research miscroscopists. The camera’s adaptability to varying resolution and frame rate requirements, combined with low noise performance and 8 or 12-bit pixel data mode, make the INFINITY4-11 an ideal camera for both live and fixed cell imaging. Live video preview allows for real-time focus, while auto exposure and auto/manual white balance efficiently capture your optimal image. A high-speed USB 2.0 interface eliminates the need for a framegrabber and provides “plug & play” ease of use. The INFINITY4-11is offered with both color and monochrome capability and is fully supported by Lumenera’s INFINITY CAPTURE and INFINITY ANALYZE software. Advanced camera control is available through a Software Developers Kit, while TWAIN and DIRECTX drivers ensure integration and compatibility with a variety of 3rd party software applications.

“With an industry standard F-mount this camera offers high resolution and sensitivity at an affordable price, making it very attractive to research microscopists.” said Larry Whelan, Business Development– Scientific Markets, Lumenera Corporation. “We are also experiencing a surge in demand from OEM partners in the ophthalmic and life science markets.
