Description
The Crest Optics X-Light V3 Confocal Imager is a full-spectrum spinning disk confocal imager that attaches to most major models of inverted or upright fluorescence microscope. It is designed to utilize the latest imaging technologies and is ideal for live cell imaging in biological applications. It relies on the cutting-edge technology, advanced optical design approach and engineering solutions developed by Crest Optics to meet the very high-end specifications required by the most modern fluorescence microscopy applications. The spinning disk design together with the careful design of the optical layout enhances sensitivity and image clarity. The X-Light V3 confocal unit is the fist which allows dual camera imaging at the full field of view of 25mm on both cameras. The X-Light V3 allows imaging at the extremes of performance of a current‐generation scientific camera, and it provides for objectives used when imaging with a camera with a smaller detector. It takes advantage of laser launches and LED light sources. The result is a flexible confocal add‐on for existing microscopes that brings the latest commercialized technologies to microscopy. The X-Light V3 Confocal Imager is an extraordinary combination of capability and price. The X‐Light V3 is the first confocal imager to allow dual‐camera imaging at the maximum field of view of 25 mm on both cameras. Provision for external adjustments allows easy alignment of the second camera with the first one. This unique new feature fully isolates the X‐Light V3 disk, protecting the disk from environmental dust and preventing undesired artifacts related to the presence of small dust particles on the disk surface. To manage very high-speed imaging at hundreds of frames per second, the X‐Light V3 provides as a standard feature a signal allowing synchronization of the camera to the spinning disk. A software‐controlled square iris in front of the spinning disk, with variable aperture, can be used to screen light and preserve the surrounding area of the sample out of the region of interest. Imaging Modes Widefield, with fast motorized disk‐in, disk‐out.
