FASTCAM ORION Series

FASTCAM ORION
High-quality, High-speed camera with Ultra-low noise
The FASTCAM Orion is the world’s first high-speed camera to simultaneously implement both BSI (Back Side Illumination) and CDS (Correlated Double Sampling), significantly reducing temporal dark noise for improved black level resolution and dynamic range and benefitting users processing images for PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) and DIC (Digital Image Correlation).

"It's the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen."
Standard features of the FASTCAM Orion include an internal mechanical shutter to allow remote system calibration, a high-performance 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface for camera control and high-speed image download, memory segmentation that allows recording into one memory partition while downloading from another, and compatibility with a number of industry standard lens formats to allow the use of Nikon G-Type, C-mount and Canon EF lenses (EF support includes software control of focus and aperture and auto-focus function).
Intuitive and feature rich Photron FASTCAM Viewer (PFV) software is included with the FASTCAM Orion camera. Also included is a Photron Device Control SDK that allows integration of the camera with
user-specific software, and libraries for controlling the camera within MATLAB or LabView environment.
