MiniLumi

Combining superior optics with a high-quality camera and versatile illumination options, the MiniLumi brings the most accurate results with maximum detail — all at the touch of one button.

Quality imaging  with a click of a button 

Answering the Researcher's demand for a reliable and advanced system to address fluorescent and colorimetric applications at an affordable cost. 

Advantages

  • Advanced resolution- High-quality images precise sample seperation
  • Range of illumination options- Enables epi and trans UV, 8-filter wheel compatible with the range of Qdot applications and all UV excited fluorophores.
  • Simple operation- One click image capture.
  • Motorized - motorized Zoom, Iris and Focus.
  • Real time image viewing and analysis- Easy to use with fast results.

Thanks to its powerful, high resolution CCD camera (1.4/2.0 Mpixel) and 16-bit file format, the MiniLumi captures the sharpest possible images with precise sample separation. The high speed F/1.2 zoom lens results in enhanced sensitivity, collecting maximum light from the sample while maintaining sharp, clear images with minimal geometric and light distortion.

Featuring a one button zoom, iris and focus; the MiniLumi offers user comfort and real-time image capturing. The motorized lens enables zoom, iris and focus adjustments settings with special controls. The eight position filter wheel allows  easy replacement and insertion of additional filters.
 
Easy to set-up, a user friendly interface, and one-click results, the MiniLumi ensures greater efficiency and productivity in the laboratory.
