Description

BM-500GE A unique feature of BM-500GE is its sequence trigger mode, which allows the user to pre-select a combination of gain, offset and Region of Interest (ROI) that can be changed on-the-fly.

The camera utilizes the Sony ICX625 CCD and operates at 15 frames/second in continuous mode even with a 5 megapixel resolution, thanks to a well-crafted analog front end design. Partial scan and binning modes are also provided.
