High-Resolution Lens works with 3-million pixel cameras.
Press Release Summary:
Model 26HA 2/3 in. 25mm F/1.4 lens has more than 2,640 TV Lines in center and more than 2,110 TV Lines at edges, making it suitable for use with 3-million pixel CCD machine vision cameras. Distortion compensation ensures high resolution from corner to corner even at minimum focusing distance of 0.6m. F/1.4 aperture allows use in situations that require low light, and 25mm focal length is used for machine vision applications.Original Press Release:
Tamron Develops Super High-Resolution Lens For Use With 3-Million Pixel Plus Cameras
New 2/3" 25mm F/1.4 Super High-Resolution is the First Lens to Yield 100% Performance from 3 Megapixel Plus Cameras
Commack, New York, January 22, 2002: The use of CCD cameras featuring more than one million pixels in machine vision applications is becoming increasingly popular. However, until now, there has not been a lens that could yield the results the cameras are capable of producing. Tamron's new 2/3" 25mm F/1.4 Super High-Resolution Lens is designed specifically for this expanding high-resolution arena.
The new 25mm (26HA) boasts more than 2,640 TV Lines in the center and more than 2,110 TV Lines at the edges. In fact, the Tamron Super High-Resolution 25mm can be used very effectively with 3-million pixel cameras. High quality and precision are imperative for machine vision use and Tamron's new 25mm Super High-Resolution lens is specifically designed to provide the quality demanded in this field. The high resolution achieved by the lens is a direct result of the thorough compensation of aberrations that are successfully lowered by Tamron through the use of advanced optical designs. Additionally, this technology provides tremendous distortion compensation that ensures high resolution from corner to corner even at the closer minimum focusing distance (M.O.D.) of 0.6m. In order to endure the vibration of factory automation apparatus, solid mechanisms are used in Tamron's high-resolution lens series. This makes it possible to maintain the finest quality even after long periods of use.
The lens' fast F/1.4 aperture further expands the flexibility of the lens allowing use in situations that require low light. Furthermore, the 25mm focal length is the standard used for machine vision applications. Tamron will continue to develop other focal length lenses that can be used with the million plus CCD cameras.
The Tamron 25mm F/1.4 Super High-Resolution (26HA) for 2/3" three million-plus pixel CCD cameras is available now at a list price of $1,650.00
