In-Depth Overview

The ToupTek Photonics X8CAM4K series is a 4K CMOS microscope camera with HDMI, USB, and Ethernet outputs, usable standalone or with a PC, fitting stereo microscopes, biological microscopes, and other C-mount systems for 4K ultra-HD imaging and video capture.

It uses a Sony Starvis 2 back-illuminated high-sensitivity CMOS sensor, supports 4K/1080p HDMI real-time output, USB 3.0 high-speed transfer, and networked collaboration, and embeds the XCamView control system for touch or mouse operation—widely applied in research, teaching, and industrial inspection.

Technical Highlights

  • Multi-interface output for varied scenarios: 4K HDMI, USB 3.0, and Ethernet outputs enable local display, PC capture, and networked teaching.
  • 4K imaging with hardware optimization: Sony Starvis 2 sensor with hardware 3D noise reduction, gamma tuning, sharpening, and color restoration.
  • Built-in XCamView for easy control: Integrated XCamView UI supports touch or mouse, saving directly to SD or USB storage.
  • Cross-platform software and research tools: Works with ToupView/ToupLite for measurement, stitching, multifocus fusion, denoising, and fluorescence processing.
