It is the ideal digital camera for a huge range of image acquisition systems and is the high-quality front end so critical to obtaining quality results. Simultaneous integration on all three chips allows low light level colour imaging with full colour resolution. The thermoelectrically cooled image sensors are capable of exposure times in excess of 100 seconds, increasing the sensitivity of the Colour CoolView to over 1000 times that of conventional colour CCD cameras. Simultaneous integration on all three chips with integration times from 1ms to 512s. Low light level colour imaging with full colour at 1360x1024 resolution.

The GemStar features a 1300 x 1030 pixel CCD coupled, by the latest bonding technology, to a specially-developed high resolution image intensifier . Spectral response can be chosen for red, green or blue peak response. A gated version with 5ns gating is also available. CCIR or EIA readout. The double MCP is used to provide sufficient flux, and combined with manual gain control can be used in a variety of light levels from photon counting to fast dynamic imaging at higher light levels.
