Key Features
Long Exposure Imaging
With groundbreaking advancements in thermal noise control, the Retiga E7 CMOS achieves an exceptionally low dark current of just 0.02 electrons per second, enabling exposure times of more than 20 minutes.
Extending exposure times from seconds to minutes allows for reliable detection of even the faintest signals with ease.
High Resolution
The Retiga E7 is equipped with a 7-megapixel sensor featuring 4.5 μm pixels arranged in a 3200 x 2200 array, optimized for high-resolution imaging over a 17.6 mm diagonal. This blend of a wide field of view and small pixel size ensures precise detail capture, even across extensive samples.
High Speed Mode
In addition to its “Long Exposure” mode, which supports exposures exceeding 20 minutes due to its ultra-low dark current, the Retiga E7 offers a “Fast Capture” mode, enabling speeds of over 50 frames per second across the full 7-megapixel sensor.
OEM Integration
The Retiga E7 is designed for seamless integration. Its compact size and single-cable interface ensure straightforward hardware setup. With features like onboard triggering, compatibility with Windows and Linux, and support from our dedicated OEM team, integrating and customizing the Retiga E7 is effortless.
