EM-CCD Cameras
The EM-CCD camera, equipped with an electron multiplying CCD, amplifies optical signals without increasing noise during data transfers, and enables high-speed photography under ultra-dim light that would otherwise require a long exposure time.

Overview
Ideal for the Following Applications
The EM-CCD camera performs excellently, especially in the following applications:
- Real-time imaging under dim fluorescent light
- Fluorescent live cell imaging with reduced intensity excitation light
- Observation of protein interaction within a cell
- Measurement of ion concentration within a cell
- Real-time confocal imaging
- Single molecule imaging using a total internal reflection fluorescent (TIRF) microscope
- Observation of in vivo microcirculatory blood cells using a fluorescent biomicroscope
- Bioluminescence imaging of gene expression
The following manufacturers are recommended for EM-CCD cameras that can be operated with Olympus cellSens software:
- Hamamatsu Photonics
- Andor
- Photometrics
- QImaging
