Peltier Cooling Mechanism
The DS-5Mc uses a Peltier cooling mechanism to cool the area around the imaging section to 20° C 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.
