Cameras limited to 12-bit read mode are marked with letter A, following
the model number. For instance, if C1+3000 marks camera with both 8-
and 12-bit read modes, C1+3000A denotes camera model with only 12-
bit read mode. All other parameters (sensor size, pixel resolution) are
equal.
Camera Electronics
CMOS camera electronics primary role, beside the sensor initialization and
some auxiliary functions, is to transfer data from the CMOS detector to the
host PC for storage and processing. So, as opposite to CCD cameras, CMOS
camera design cannot influence number of important camera features, like
the dynamic range (bit-depth of the digitized pixels).
