(Photron: San Diego) -- Photron Inc., a global manufacturer of high-speed imaging systems and image analysis software, introduces the lower cost, high-definition, high-speed Fastcam SA6 camera. Ideal for automotive, military, broadcast, particle velocimetry (PIV), and digital image correlation (DIC) applications, the new, high-speed system is available in both 36-bit color, and the more light sensitive 12-bit monochrome.

The Fastcam SA6 provides up to 1,500 frames per second (fps) at high-definition resolution (1,920 × 1,080 pixels) from the 1,920 ×1,440 native resolution CMOS sensor. By reducing the camera’s resolution, the speed can be increased to a remarkable 75,000 fps with a minimum global electronic shutter time of 2.7 microseconds (available independent of the frame rate selected). Photron provides both C and F lens mounts with the new, large format camera. The Fastcam SA6 is also compatible with the Canon ES/EF series lenses and available with PL and B4 lens mounts.

Three different memory sizes of 8 GB, 16 GB, and 32 GB are offered, providing 1,080 high-definition resolution record durations of 1.72, 3.44, and 6.89 seconds, respectively. Dual high-definition serial digital interface and a single RS-170 video output on the rear panel enable seamless review and saving of recorded image date immediately after the recording is completed. The camera can be precisely controlled via the award-winning, free Photron Fastcam Viewer software, the optional remote control keypad, or through programmable function buttons on the camera’s rear panel.

The camera features superior light sensitivity and low noise operation, in part due to micro lenses that are specially designed to focus the maximum available light onto the light-gathering portion of the 10-micron-square thermoelectric-cooled pixel.

For more information or to request a free demonstration of the Fastcam SA6 or other Photron high speed imaging solutions, contact Photron at (800) 585-2129 or image@photron.com.
