Prosilica GC1290 is a 1.2 megapixel camera with a GigE Vision compliant Gigabit Ethernet port and Hirose I/O port. Prosilica GC1290 is offered in both monochrome and color models. This camera incorporates the high quality Type 1/3 (6.0 mm diagonal) Sony ICX445 CCD sensor with EXview HAD CCD technology that provides superior image quality, excellent sensitivity, and low noise. At full resolution, this camera has a frame rate of 33 frames per second. With a smaller region of interest higher frame rates are possible. By default monochrome models ship with no optical filter and color models ship with a Type IRC30 IR cut filter.
Hardware options
- Various lens mounts: Select between C-Mount and CS-Mount
- Various optical filters: Select between B 270 ASG protection glass Type IRC30 IR pass filter.
See the Modular Concept for lens mount and optical filter options.
Imaging performance data is based on the evaluation methods in the EMVA 1288 Release 3.1 standard for characterization of image sensors and cameras. Measurements are typical values for monochrome models measured at full resolution without optical filter.
Image optimization features:
- Auto gain (manual gain control: 0 to 24 dB; 1 dB increments)
- Auto exposure (manual exposure control: 12 µs to 72.4 s; 1 µs increments)
- Auto white balance (GC1290C only)
- Binning (horizontal and vertical) (sum)
- Black level (Offset)
- Gamma correction
- Hue, saturation, color transformation (GC1290C only)
- Three look-up tables
- Region of interest, DSP subregion (selectable region for auto features)
Camera control features:
