Full (1920 x 1080) HDTV
Internal Signal processing of full HDTV input with full HDTV output.
Various HDTV outputs are available, namely, 720p, 1080i and 1080p.
This is the smallest and lightest 3 – Chip Full HDTV Medical Grade Camera Head in the World.
Ground breaking compact and lightweight camera head, with dimensions of 30x40x40mm (WHD) and weight of 100g encapsulating a newly developed optical block and CMOS chips for C – mount applications.
Mounts easily to Operation Microscopes or Slit Lamp range
Using the Beam Splitter and TV camera Adapter, the MKC-300HD camera system easily mounts to the Takagi Operation Microscope or Slit Lamp range for Unsurpassed high definition quality images.

1000 lines Horizontal resolution F10/2000lux High Sensitivity
The MKC-300HD employs 3 x 2.1 Mega pixel Full HDTV 1/3 – inch CMOS Sensors to provide 1000 lines of high definition video images, coupled with high sensitivity performance F10/2000lux providing the optimal video quality required for high – end medical video systems.
54Db High S/N Ratio
Optimised signal processing circuitry achieves a high Signal-to-Noise Ratio of 54Db.
Digital Processing
Video signal processing is done in the same signal process ASIC to constantly achieve a high level of quality and reliability.
Automatic Iris control
Accurate Iris control is possible with auto iris camera adaptors and auto iris lenses.
Automatic Electronic Shutter System (Shutter Iris)
Electronic shutter (shutter Iris) functionality to maintain optimized performance in a variety of situations.
Scene File
4 scene files are provided to keep pre-set memory for functions and controls.
Video Level Indicator
Level indicator is provided on the front panel of the camera control unit (CCU) for ease of operation.
Skin Detail Enhancer
Fine control of human image colour detail is provided as standard to reproduce fine true to life skin tone.
Slow Shutter Provision
For very low light level imaging, a slow shutter function is provided.
Flip and Turn Function
Digital capture means that captured images can be flipped horizontally and vertically. Allowing for correction of image inversion from the optics used.
An optional foot pedal is required to allow external operation of this function.
Still Image Capture
Still images (up to 1920x1080) can be captured and saved to a USB memory (JPEG or BMP). Controllable from external inputs such as optional foot pedal.

Picture Freeze
Pressing the freeze button on the CCU panel will hold the current image. This allows detailed inspection of situations where motion could hide details.
Standard Output of SDTV (NTSC/PAL) Down – Converted Video
The MKC-300HD has an internal down - converter to output SDTV. Composite signal and S-VIDEO outputs are provided as standard.
Can be used for integration with existing equipment such as DVD recorders.

DVI-D Output
Can output at 1920x1080i/9 50/59.94Hz and 1280x720p 50/59.94Hz.
This enables the camera to be used with external high quality display and PC monitors.
Remote Control Functions
Can be used with external triggers such as the optional foot pedal, and programmed to control Image Flip/Turn, Still Image Capture, or Scene Files.
Long 30m Camera Cable Extension
The cable connecting the camera head and the CCU can be up to 30m long (optional cable). No more need to worry about cable routing.
Anti-Biotic Coating
Camera-Head and CCU utilises an anti-biotic coating to help to improve infection control.
