# MV-CA050-12UM — 5MP Area Scan Camera, USB3, IMX264, Mono

> Covering 0.3-6M pixels, CA series equip GigE and USB3.0 interfaces, with a maximum frame rate of 814fps. Near-infrared enhanced camera model selectable, which can meet the visual application requirements of the near-infrared band (750-1100nm). This series is mainly equipped with global shutter sensor, which can easily capture high-speed dynamic images and cover the needs in most applications; some models can support ultra-short exposures of 1μs, suitable for flying shooting and other Industries.
