VS-364: F-Mount Image Intensifier Assembly

F-Mount GEN III Image Intensifier Assembly

The VS-364 Image Intensifier is a high resolution Blue Gen III (OMNI IV) Micro-Channel Plate (MCP) Image Intensifier made to convert your F-Mount camera into a low light camera with just a click of the Nikon F-Mount. The output format is adjusted for the correct input format of the selected camera. The VS-345 Image Intensifier can be used on CCD formats with over 35mm diagonal formats. The response of the VS-364 is over three times higher than other image intensifiers at Blue-Green wavelengths. Resolution is also 30 to 50% higher than most other image intensifiers.

The VS-364 Image Intensifier has been pre-adjusted for focus, uniformity and gain. A computer (RS-232) control module allows user to manually set the Gain, Gate, and Gate Delay of the intensifier via a GUI.
