Hitachi KP-E500 Cameras

 

 

For Even Greater Sensitivity A Monochrome Version of the Camera is Available Allowing Use in Even Lower Light Levels.

In the normal mode of operation the camera provides higher sensitivity as compared to a normal camera. In the accumulation mode unmatched sensitivity is achieved allowing use in extremely low light situations.

Monochrome in full motion mode 0.00003 lx
Monochrome accumulation mode 0.0000005 lx

Electron Multiplication used in the EM-CCD Improves Performance While Reducing Technical Issues

Typical high sensitivity cameras use an Image Intensifier Tube that is subject to burn in, afterimage (lag) and short life span. These problems are eliminated with the use of the EM-CCD.
