Are you looking for a film-replacement CCD camera to meet your demanding clinical and diagnostic microscopy needs?  This is becoming a popular question posed to most of us who are being forced to leave the “known” comfortable world of photographic film for that of the “unfamiliar” digital frontier.  The familiar words of ASA, D-19, hypofix, stop baths, polycontrast paper, glossy, matte, SO-163, dodging and burning are being replaced with those of pixels, CCD, fiber optics, scintillators, readout noise and peltier cooling.  In order to understand what this “unfamiliar” frontier is all about and how it relates to the clinical or diagnostic microscopy world, we need to understand how it is entering the familiar “workflow” way of doing work in the clinical and pathology microscopy environment.
