Leica DFC7000 T / DFC7000 GT

Product catalog summary

Overview: The Leica DFC7000 series includes two high-performance CCD cameras designed for fluorescence and brightfield microscopy: the DFC7000 T and the DFC7000 GT. These cameras are engineered to deliver superior image quality through innovative design and technology.

Camera Specifications:

DFC7000 T: A digital color camera suitable for both fluorescence and brightfield applications, featuring a Sony ICX674AQG sensor with RGB Bayer mask, and a pixel size of 4.54 μm.
DFC7000 GT: A digital monochrome camera optimized for fluorescence applications, equipped with a Sony ICX674ALG sensor, offering high sensitivity for low-light conditions.
Both cameras feature a cooled 2.8 megapixel sensor, interline transfer progressive scan, and a global shutter.

Key Features:

Large Field of View: Enabled by a 2.8 MP sensor and Leica's low magnification, high-numerical aperture objectives, facilitating applications like tile scans.
High-Speed Acquisition: Capable of capturing up to 40 frames per second at full resolution, and up to 120 frames per second in 5x5 binning mode.
Low-Light Fluorescence Mastery: The DFC7000 GT offers a maximum quantum efficiency of 70%, Peltier cooling, and advanced noise reduction features for superior low-light imaging.
Brightfield Documentation: The DFC7000 T uses a 5x5 demosaicing algorithm for accurate color reproduction, making it ideal for stained specimens.

System Integration: The cameras integrate seamlessly with Leica Microsystems' software platforms, including LAS for basic image acquisition and LAS X for advanced analysis, ensuring smooth operation across various applications.

Technical Specifications:

Exposure time ranges from 4 μsec to 200 sec, with a bit depth of 8 or 12 bits.
Cooling is achieved through a one-stage Peltier system, with a power consumption of approximately 14-15 W.
Operating temperature ranges from +5°C to +50°C, with storage temperatures from -20°C to +70°C.
Conforms to CE and ROHS standards, ensuring compliance with international regulations.

Conclusion: The Leica DFC7000 cameras are designed to meet the demands of both fluorescence and brightfield microscopy, offering high sensitivity, excellent color fidelity, and efficient system integration for successful experimental outcomes.
