The BRESSER MikroCam SP 3.1MP Microscope Camera is ideally suited for a wide array of uses and applications—from being mounted on a microscope to monitoring manufacturing and industrial machinery. It is outfitted with a high-definition 3.1MP color CMOS sensor with a resolution of 2048x1536. Information is fed to a Windows computer utilizing a standard USB 2.0 connection via the included 6' cable that also provides power to the camera. Designed to be compatible with a wide variety of gear, the housing has standard C-mount threads for camera lenses, and it comes with three nose piece adapters that allow you to mount the camera on a microscope without a dedicated camera port in place of its eyepiece. For special applications, there is a standard 1/4"-20 mount on the housing to mount/install the camera wherever you need it.
