System Requirements
To properly use ColorView III, the following system requirements for your
computer and your analySIS image analysis system should be taken into
consideration:
Modern cameras with the respective software offer numerous possibilities
for correcting and modifying the acquired image. They enable the image to
be optimized quickly. However, the entire system, the sample, the micro-
scope with all its possibilities, and the camera all must be optimally set in or-
der to attain the best possible results.
Handbook Layout
This handbook will help you use your system to optimally acquire images.
Camera Adjustments
All basic camera settings are handled by the software via one or more logical
input channels. You will find the input channel options for color and black &
white use in the chapter entitled "Adjusting the Camera". This chapter is at
the end of the book, since hardly any alterations are made to the input chan-
nels in day-to-day use.
Camera and light mi-
croscope
The chapter entitled "Camera and Light Microscope" portrays the elements
of the microscope which have the greatest influence on the image quality.
The correct microscope settings are explained.
Image Acquisition
The chapter entitled "Image Acquisition" deals with the uses and possibili-
ties of a digital camera, as well as the software required for image acquisi-
tion. This chapter will be the most used chapter for day-to-day use. The in-
dividual acquisition methods (live-acquisition, single image, intelligent expo-
sure) are explained in this chapter in detail.
Usage in Black & White
mode
In addition to the normal color mode, ColorView III also offers a black & white
mode. The chapter entitled "Usage in Black & White mode" describes the
setup of this mode as well as the alterations in camera usage.
