Manta G-505 is a 5.0 Megapixel machine vision camera with a GigE compliant Gigabit Ethernet port and Hirose I/O port. Manta G-505 incorporates the high quality Type 2/3 (11.016 mm diagonal) Sony ICX625 CCD sensor with Super HAD CCD technology and global shutter. At full resolution, this camera runs 15.0 frames per second. With a smaller region of interest, higher frame rates are possible.
Manta is one of Allied Vision's versatile GigE Vision cameras with a wide range of features. Particular highlights are the three look-up tables, sophisticated color correction capabilities, a robust metal housing, and many modular options. By default monochrome models ship with B 270 ASG protection glass and color models ship with a Type Hoya C-5000 IR cut filter.
Hardware options
- Various lens mounts: Select between C-Mount, CS-Mount, or M12-Mount (adapter)
- Various optical filters: Select between B 270 ASG protection glass and filter types: Jenofilt 217 IR cut filter, Hoya C-5000 IR cut filter, RG715 IR pass filter, or RG830 IR pass filter.
