You can perform detailed observation and measurement with unprecedented high-quality slow-motion images.

Description

NAC Memrecam HX-3 / HX-5 / HX-6

High-definition videoNAC-HX3-camera

High-speed data recording of 2,000 frames per second with 5 million pixels (2,560 x 1,920 pixels) and 4,500 frames per second (HX-3) with full HD image quality, and highly accurate data from unprecedented high-definition video Is now available. Also, if you use the WINDOW MOVE function, you can specify the shooting location in the effective shooting area and display it in the center of the screen, making it easy to fine-tune the camera during magnified shooting.

High speed photography

The maximum speed of the high speed camera MEMREMCAM HX series varies depending on the model. You can select the most suitable model according to the speed band you use. You can capture high-speed phenomena from low-speed areas to high-speed areas with high image quality.

Maximum speed of each model

  • HX-3: 1,300,000 frames / sec
  • HX-5: 900,000 frames / sec
  • HX-6: 650,000 frames / sec

High Sensitivity Mode (GXC mode)

NAC GXC Mode
Brightness comparison between normal and GXC mode

It has sensitivity of color ISO 2,000, monochrome ISO 10,000, and in GXC * 1 mode of NAC’s original technology, the normal sensitivity can be increased four times. You can obtain brighter and clearer images than ever before even when shooting objects that are sensitive to heat or in low-light environments. In addition, clear images can be obtained even when shooting with the magnifying optical system.

DownLoad REC

By dividing the installed memory into two or more segments, it is possible to record captured images in unused segments while downloading them to your computer. It is the most suitable function for the purpose such as repetitive testing and time efficiency.

Custom memory segment

This function allows you to divide and distribute the installed memory arbitrarily. You can adjust the recording time and download only the necessary images without downloading the shooting data to the computer each time. You can perform more efficient shooting by using this together with the DownLoad REC function.

  • The HX series (HX-3 / HX-5 / HX-6) adopts a high-definition sensor with 5 million pixels (2,560 x 1,920 pixels), which exceeds the full HD image quality, and provides high-quality, high-speed images depending on the application. You can shoot.
  • The internal memory can be selected from 16GB, 32GB, 64GB. You can select according to your application, and you can add memory after delivery.\
  • Various recording methods such as automatic recording (auto pilot), recording delay setting, variable recording speed during recording (1 to 1/100 times speed), and image trigger are standard equipment.
  • It is possible to acquire 2 frame images at the shortest time interval of 125 ns with one exposure start signal pulse.
  • Images can be saved to a general-purpose HDD or secondary recording medium via a USB 2.0 network.
