The Higher the Magnification - The More Detail You'll See

Magnification is the ability of your microscope to make small objects seem larger. As the magnification increases the area being viewed will be decrease is size but the detail of the area being viewed will improve.

Amscope microscopes come with multiple magnifications to aid you in finding the proper magnification for viewing each specimen.

Camera Connection Types

When comparing 2.0 and 3.0 there are few major differences. First the transfer rates. USB 2.0 offers transfer rates of 480 Mbps and USB 3.0 offers transfer rates of 4.8 Gbps - that's 10 times faster.

Camera Resolution

The most important factor in ensuring successful microscopic imaging is choosing the appropriate optics and camera for your application that gives you more data and higher image quality. When selecting a microscope camera, it is best to base your decision on the most important requirements for your microscopic observation.

Key Features

  • Streams 1080p 60fps live video over HDMI and captures photos up to 5MP
  • Standalone operation with built-in recording using SD card
  • Wi-fi connectivity for PC control and capture up at 25fps
  • Excellent low-light performance. Useful for fluorescence and dark-field.
  • User-friendly software for Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10 offers editing/processing and advanced features including Stitching and Focus-stacking

The HD-205-WU is an HDMI-capable digital camera, delivering 1080p video up to 60fps, and 5MP still images. The highly-sensitive digital sensor makes this camera ideal for low-light applications, including dark-field and fluorescence. Able to be used as a standalone recording device using Secure Digital memory, or as a WiFi camera on a networked computer, this is an extremely flexible imaging solution. The industry-standard C-mount design allows this camera to be connected directly to C-mount photo-ports, or used in conjunction with an array of lenses and adapters to mount to virtually any popular microscope line.

Connected to an HDMI monitor or TV, 1080p live video can be viewed at a super-smooth 60fps. The included USB mouse allows you to make adjustments in the internal software for settings such as white-balance and exposure, and control recording functions. As an alternative solution, connect to the camera over WiFi for remote software control, with 25fps streaming. The included Windows software offers image-development and measurement tools, as well as advanced compositing features such as image-stitching and extended-depth-of-focus. With the ability to calibrate scales at multiple magnifications, the software can be used for multi-level inspection. For Mac and Linux, there is a lite version of the software which can capture video and still images, and includes limited processing features.

Notice: an adapter is required to mount the camera to 23mm photo ports. A 0.5X reduction lens is recommended.

    Great camera, not so great documentation

    The camera is a great camera. It takes excellent pictures and video, its a smart looking camera and the software is simple to use. The only criticism I have, is that considering the amount of money this item cost me, there seems to be no easy way to get any instructions on how to connect it with the computer. My particular box had no booklet, from the website I could only access documents on a previous version, not this.

    For all those who would think well its a basic camera, should be easy enough? Yes and no, I've got it all working now, however there were a few frustrated hours at the start figuring things out.

    Other than the documentation issue, its an excellent camera and I have no doubt that it will work for me for years to come.
