The Jenoptik CF camera includes ProgRes® CapturePro software. This camera is made for research applications with exacting tasks. The CCD chip allows for high sensitivity when working with low-light specimens. View images captured with ProgRes® cameras here. Camera plugs directly into the IEEE port (or USB port with PRCF only) on your computer; included software allows you to view a live image on your screen, capture and save both still images or movies, and make measurements, among other features.
