Prosilica GT4400 is a large format camera equipped with a GigE Vision compliant Gigabit Ethernet port and Hirose I/O port. This camera incorporates the second generation Sony IMX367 CMOS sensor with Pregius global shutter technology. This sensor offers high quantum efficiency, high dynamic range and spatial resolution, low readout noise and provides excellent imaging performance. At full resolution, this camera runs at 6.12 frames per second. With a smaller region of interest, higher frame rates are possible. This camera is ideal for high-definition imaging applications with demanding requirements on robustness and design-in flexibility. The rugged camera design, effective passive cooling, and comprehensive feature set make these Prosilica GT4400 cameras an ideal choice for a wide range of applications. Prosilica GT4400 has an F-Mount as standard. A new C-Mount option is available via our Modular Concept.

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 F-Mount, F-Mount PA, EF-Mount PA, M42-Mount, M42-Mount PA, M58-Mount, M58-Mount PA, TFL-Mount, or C-Mount
Various optical filters: Select between B 270 ASG protection glass and filter types: IRC30 IR cut filter, Schneider 486 IR cut filter

See the Modular Concept for lens mount and optical filters options. See the Customization and OEM Solutions webpage for additional options.
