NTSC vs. PAL?

North America and several other areas (Taiwan, Chile, Philippines, South Korea, Japan) use NTSC.  

European and Australian users will need the PAL version.  Please contact us to order.




Q:  Which is the better way to attach this camera to a microscope?

A:  If your trinocular microscope has a C-mount tube, we recommend that.  It is the preferred method to attach the Bio-VID.  

If your trinoc does not have a C-mount adapter, or if you have a binoc / monoc scope, you must use the lens-to-eyepiece attachment.  This still works well but is a bit more cumbersome.

















CR Scientific

Bio-VID Color CCD Camera

Take color pictures with your trinocular microscope.  Attaches via a C / CS mount.  If you have a binocular or monocular microscope, you can still attach the BioVID via the included eyepiece adapter.

Opthalmologists & optometrists:  you can attach the Bio-VID directly to your slit lamp for prediagnostic exams.

Q: Can I capture still images on a computer with the Bio-VID?

A: Yes, but you'll need to have the proper add-on. There are two choices: (1.) USB adapter & video capture software (available on this page), or (2.) a separate video capture card (not included) with an S-video-in jack and some aftermarket software (e.g., Paint Shop Pro, Photoshop).
