Company:

Olympus

Product Name:

DP73 Digital Camera

Catalog Number:

DP73

This camera has been used in conjunction with the Olympus BX63 microscope to assess fixed bright field as well as fluorescent images. This camera was selected because it is on the cheaper end of some of Olympus's cameras but can accomplish our microscopy needs with decent resolution and sensitivity.

Tips

Make sure this camera is correct for the application you want. Small details are still difficult for this camera to pick up.

Summary

The Good

Cheaper than some of the other camera models out there

The Bad

Some camera models are better and have way better fluorescent resolution.

The Bottom Line

This camera works for our application of quantifying fluorescent and bright field images. The variety of colors this camera can pick up make images very easy to distinguish.
