Ximea MC089CG-SY 8.9MP Color USB3 Camera with SONY IMX255 CMOS Global Shutter Sensor, 41 FPS, 26.4 x 26.4 x 42 mm
The Ximea MC089CG-SY industrial camera features an advanced 8.9 Megapixel Sony IMX255 color CMOS sensor with Pregius™ global shutter technology, delivering exceptional image quality at a full resolution of 4112 x 2176 pixels. The pixel size of 3.45 µm ensures high sensitivity and low noise, with a dynamic range of 70.9 dB and readout noise of only 2.4 e⁻, making it ideal for precision imaging applications. Capturing at 41 frames per second via a USB 3.0 interface (5 Gbit/s), this camera ensures fast data transfer and low-latency performance for high-speed industrial environments.
Designed for flexibility, the MC089CGSY features on-chip downsampling, ROI control, hot pixel correction, and programmable image processing including LUT, gamma, color matrix, and de-Bayering. The compact housing measures only 26.4 x 26.4 x 42.0 mm and weighs 37.5 grams, with a standard C-mount lens interface and flexible I/O options including opto-isolated inputs/outputs and configurable GPIOs. It is bus-powered via USB3 and supports software triggers, hardware synchronization, and extended exposure times up to 30 seconds, making it a versatile choice for applications in scientific imaging, 3D scanning, medical devices, machine vision, and aerial mapping.
