ZEISS Axiocam 203 mono Microscope Camera

The ZEISS Axiocam 203 mono makes any microscope smarter – without a PC. The compact 3-megapixel monochrome camera was specially developed for fluorescence documentation, routine work and educational environments. Thanks to its stand-alone function, HDMI output, and network capability, live images can be displayed, saved, or shared on the network directly on the monitor – quickly, intuitively, and without additional software.

The light-sensitive Sony sensor delivers clean, low-noise fluorescence images, while automatic functions such as exposure and gain significantly simplify image acquisition. Images or videos are captured with just one click – and saved via USB stick or LAN. All camera settings can be conveniently controlled directly on the display via the On-Screen Display (OSD) (see OSD screenshots in the brochure, page 3).

The Axiocam 203 mono can also be perfectly integrated into modern ZEISS Smart Microscopes such as Axiolab 5 or Axioscope 5/7 and supports ZEN, Labscope, and TWAIN workflows – ideal for laboratories, education, QC areas, and fluorescence imaging.
