System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect X8CAM4K8MPC_MR to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Lens and microscope interface
- 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 and sampling
- Sensor: Sony IMX678(C) · Resolution: 8 MP (3840 × 2160)
- 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.
- Interface and data rate
- Interface: HDMI2.0 / USB3.0 / NETWORK / SD / USB Video · USB3.0 Output: 30 fps @ 3840 × 2160, 45 fps @ 2688 × 1512, 60 fps @ 1920 × 1080
- 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.
Technical FAQ
Integration questions for X8CAM4K8MPC_MR
What lens mount is required for the X8CAM4K8MPC_MR?
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.
What sensor and pixel pitch does the X8CAM4K8MPC_MR use?
Sensor: Sony IMX678(C) · Resolution: 8 MP (3840 × 2160). 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.
