Hamamatsu Photonics has announced that in Spring 2010, they will release the new ORCA-D2, a new high-sensitivity camera for simultaneous dual wavelength imaging that features two CCD devices and interchangeable optical blocks.

The ORCA-D2 offers exceptional ease of use with optical setup steps such as image alignment and focusing. As an added advantage over conventional ratio imaging techniques, the ORCA-D2 also provides a wide field of view during dual wavelength imaging. The ORCA-D2 is suitable for wide variety of fluorescence microscopy applications including ratio imaging, FRET and dual wavelength TIRF.
