QImaging Retiga 6000
Description
The vast majority of fluorescence cameras used today capture only 24% of the usable Field of View (FOV) on the microscope. This small FOV significantly reduces the amount of data collected by a single frame, limiting the number of cells monitored simultaneously, increasing the number of frames required for whole slide imaging and overall slowing down the throughput of a lab. To counter this FOV challenge, many scientists resort to de-magnifying optical adapters or lower magnifications but at the cost of significantly reduced image resolution.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, the Retiga 6000 has small 4.54 μm pixels that maintain Nyquist sampling with lower magnifications and new high NA objectives, allowing the camera to benefit from the boost in optical resolution and image area.
The Retiga 6000 can be used for live cell time-lapse fluorescence, high content screening, imaging cytometry, immunofluorescence, whole slide imaging, biochip analyzers, and gel documentation.
No, the Retiga 6000 has low noise camera electronics, high quantum efficiency of 75%, and low dark current, which offers superior resolution without compromising on sensitivity.
The Retiga 6000 has a 16mm sensor diagonal and 6.05 million pixels, which allows it to capture twice the image area than most standard fluorescence cameras.
The Retiga 6000 is a fluorescence camera that captures a larger field of view on the microscope without compromising on resolution or sensitivity.
