Hamamatsu Orca Flash2.8 CMOS camera: Performance compared to the C9100-13 EMCCD and the Orca ER

Complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) chips are common in consumer digital cameras but have not been favoured in low light level imaging applications because of poor sensitivity and high noise. Recently a series of scien- tific CMOS cameras have been launched which promise improvements in b...
