Dear microscopists, with support from the College's Equipment Sharing Grant we now finally have an RGB camera for histology imaging on Widefield 2 (South Kensington). It has a nixe, large sensor with 2452 x 2056 pixels, 3x12bit digitisation. Thanks to this grant, we also have upgraded to a new 64-bit Win-7 computer, so we can now run the newest version of the Hamamatsu HCImage software, which allows automated tiling and stitching of large areas. In combination with the new camera, this will finally allow efficient acquisition of large histology slides. If this is what you need, please get in touch. For those located in Hammersmith: HWF1 has had this functionality already. Good imaging, Martin -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Martin Spitaler, PhD* *FILM - Facility for Imaging by Light Microscopy* - Facility Manager - Sir Alexander Fleming Building, desk 401 Imperial College London / South Kensington Exhibition Road London SW7 2AZ UK Tel. +44-(0)20-759-42023 E-mail m.spitaler@imperial.ac.uk <mailto:m.spitaler@imperial.ac.uk> Website: http://imperial.ac.uk/imagingfacility
