5 MP CMOS global shutter camera with SONY EXMOR sensor, USB3.0, ideal for polarizing light & freeze-frame imaging.
The OPTIKA P5GS Pro is a high-performance scientific CMOS camera engineered for precise microscopy imaging applications, featuring a 5 MP resolution sensor based on the SONY EXMOR CMOS global shutter technology. This camera employs a global shutter mode that enables simultaneous pixel exposure, facilitating freeze-frame capture of rapidly moving specimens and eliminating motion artifacts, essential in dynamic live-cell imaging and fast kinetic studies.
Equipped with a USB3.0 interface, it supports high data transfer rates for impressive frame rates critical in biotechnological workflows such as molecular diagnostics, bioprocessing analysis, and synthetic biology research. The sensor’s wide dynamic range enhances imaging under varied lighting, making it particularly suitable for polarizing light microscopy, often utilized in cell and tissue imaging.
The camera’s compact housing and compatibility with standard C-Mount adapters (sold separately) allow easy integration with diverse trinocular microscope systems, ensuring flexibility for multidisciplinary laboratories engaged in neuroscience, clinical diagnostics, and biomedical engineering. Included accessories such as a calibration slide and USB cable support precise calibration and connectivity.
The OPTIKA P5GS Pro is widely adopted in biotechnology and molecular biology research, enabling clear and detailed visualization vital for gene editing workflows, live-cell fluorescence imaging, and biomanufacturing quality control. Its advanced sensor technology and versatile platform make it indispensable in cutting-edge laboratory imaging solutions.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.
We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.
We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
