SPOT Pursuit XS Slider CCD Scientific Digital Camera System

High Speed Cooled Color and Monochrome Camera for High Speed Quantitative Imaging

The Pursuit Slider is a high speed 14-bit digital camera with the color filter on a slide mechanism, enabling the user to take high-resolution color and un-filtered, high sensitivity monochrome images with a single camera. Its regulated cooling and multiple readout speeds make it ideal for quantitative applications like FRET, FRAP, live-cell imaging, FISH, and ion imaging.

This package includes the following components:

SPOT Pursuit camera head
PCI Express interface card
data cable
power supply (supports both US and international voltage requirements)
power supply cable (country-specific)
SPOT Basic software CD (latest version)

This camera package was used for some internal demonstrations but functions and looks brand new. You can return the camera package within 14 days for a full refund if not satisfied. The camera package also comes with a 90 day service warranty. The only additional item required to get started imaging with the camera is a coupler for your microscope. Please review the Suggested Accessories tab for information about those.

SPOT Software

The Pursuit cameras come with SPOT Basic software included at no additional charge. The SPOT Basic application enables microscopists to create publication-quality pictures easily. The live image preview window is ideal for panning through slides and for fine focusing. Acquiring flawless images is as effortless as a single mouse click. After image capture, measurements, calibration marks, and other enhancements can be applied. Images can be dropped into a SPOT report for printing, or saved in several different file formats for future distribution. The SPOT Basic application provides all of the necessary tools for most imaging applications.

Additional software features can be found in the SPOT Advanced and SPOT Advanced Plus software modes. For more information about the different SPOT software modes available and their functionality, please see http://www.spotimaging.com/software/spotsoftwarecomparepc.html.

SPOT Advanced Software

For users that would like even more imaging tools, the Idea cameras are also compatible with the SPOT Advanced software, which includes macro scripting for automating routine tasks, custom taskbars for commonly used functions, image merging, and pre-configured image setups.

SPOT Advanced Plus Software

PC customers can also consider the SPOT Advanced Plus software, which includes peripheral device control and extended depth of focus capabilities.

Stage Micrometers

Stage micrometers allow you to calibrate your SPOT camera system so that accurate measurements can be added to your images.

SM-775 Stage Micrometer

Extended Warranties

This camera comes with a standard 90 day warranty. Extended warranties in 1 year and 2 year terms are available for an additional cost.

	1 Year Extended Warranty
	2 Year Extended Warranty

Microscope Adapters

You will need an F-mount adapter to mate the Pursuit camera to your microscope. A 1.0x magnification C-mount adapter will provide a wide field of view. Please see our online coupler selector guide at http://www.spotimaging.com/accessories/coupler to obtain the part number for an adapter that would be suitable for your microscope model.
