OCAM4K8MPA Multi-Interface Output Camera with Sony IMX678(C) sensor, 8MP for autofocus imaging.
Application context
OCAM4K8MPA: The Sony IMX678(C) sensor, 8MP resolution, and 2.0 μm × 2.0 μm pixels defines the sensitivity, sampling and field coverage available for Scientific imaging. The HDMI: 30 fps @ 3840×2160 frame-rate listing also sets the fastest full-frame acquisition regime.

Technical FAQ
Lens Mount: C-mount. Use a lens image circle that covers the sensor and check flange distance before adding C/CS, F-mount or M42 adapters.
Sensor: Sony IMX678(C) · Resolution: 8MP. Match pixel pitch to the diffraction-limited spot the optics deliver. Sampling finer than the optics resolve multiplies data volume without adding information; sampling coarser discards resolution you have paid for.
Frame Rate: HDMI: 30 fps @ 3840×2160 · Interface: HDMI1.4. Confirm the host can sustain the interface bandwidth continuously, not in burst. A camera that outruns the write path stalls acquisition rather than dropping quietly to a lower rate.
Tell us your sensor, resolution, spectral range, frame-rate, interface, and software requirements and we will confirm the matching configuration and lead time.
