Power new discoveries: ORCA-Quest IQ is a high-performance and flexible camera for every researcher​ 

Hamamatsu Photonics has expanded its ORCA-Quest series of qCMOS cameras with the introduction of the new model, ORCA-Quest IQ, featuring Camera Link output.

The ORCA-Quest IQ retains the ORCA-Quest series’ core features including low noise, high resolution, and high quantum efficiency. The new Camera Link output allows the camera to support advanced applications such as adaptive optics and super-resolution microscopy. These applications require a control system, which is facilitated by a Camera Link interface for image acquisition, processing, and high-speed feedback to peripheral devices.
