Overview
Andor iXonEM +885 EMCCD Camera
A proud member of Andor's iXonEM+ EMCCD range, the 885 benefits from the unique innovations and high-end performance specifications that have characterized this camera family as the industry's leading high-performance EMCCD. The megapixel sensor format and 8 x 8µm pixel size of the 885 presents an attractive combination of field of view and resolution, offering excellent Nyquist over-sampling for cell microscopy. When more light is available from the sample, the EMCCD gain can be completely switched off and the camera operated as a 'traditional' CCD camera. However if the digital microscope camera is used in low-light conditions, the EMCCD gain can be applied to render it single photon sensitive, while maintaining a full resolution frame rate of 31 frames/sec. The absolute EM gain multiplication can be varied linearly from unity up to a thousand times directly via RealGainTM, a true quantitative EM gain scale.
