Accu-Scope Excelis 4K is an 8MP UHD digital microscope camera for clinical microscopy, cell biology, industrial inspection, measurement, education, research, and documentation. Its Sony STARVIS IMX585 color CMOS sensor delivers 3840 × 2160 live imaging at up to 30 frames per second with excellent resolution, color reproduction, and sensitivity.
The Excelis 4K can operate directly through a 4K HDMI monitor without a computer, connect to a Windows or Mac computer through USB 3.0, or connect through GigE Ethernet. Built-in software supports standalone viewing, capture, video, calibration, measurement, and annotation, while CaptaVision+ provides advanced computer-based imaging, processing, measurement, and reporting tools.

Three Flexible Connection Modes: Connect directly to a 4K monitor through HDMI for standalone operation, connect to a Windows or Mac computer through USB 3.0 for advanced imaging with CaptaVision+, or connect through GigE Ethernet for use with a network-connected computer. Each connection method supports 4K live imaging at up to 30 fps.
True 4K UHD Microscope Imaging: The Excelis 4K produces full 3840 × 2160 UHD images at up to 30 fps, providing four times the pixel count of standard 1080p HD. The large 1/1.2-inch Sony STARVIS IMX585 sensor uses back-illuminated CMOS technology to support high-resolution live viewing with strong color rendition and improved sensitivity.
Standalone HDMI Operation: A computer is not required for routine viewing and documentation. Connect the camera to a compatible monitor and use the included USB mouse to control exposure and white balance, capture images and video, calibrate the system, add annotations, and perform measurements through the camera's built-in software.
CaptaVision+ Imaging Software: Included CaptaVision+ software for Windows and Mac provides camera control, live and still-image measurement, calibration, annotation, image processing, intelligent flat-field correction, focus stacking, image stitching, HDR, report generation, data export, and video recording with voice.
Optional Camera-Mounted Monitor: The AU-800-4KS configuration includes a mountable 13.3-inch monitor that attaches directly to the camera. This creates a compact, space-saving microscopy workstation and supports comfortable heads-up viewing without requiring a separate computer or desktop monitor.
NDAA-Compliant Design: The Excelis 4K is compliant with Section 889 of the National Defense Authorization Act and does not use electronics or components from prohibited suppliers, making it suitable for government, defense, institutional, and regulated purchasing environments.
