Finest in high image quality and easiest to use
This industrial camera series which features a slim, compact body and definitive image technology, covers a
broad spectrum of innovative applications from production line monitoring to specialized effect
roentgenography. The long-awaited new models Micro Camera Series are now on the market. For the first
time in the industry, the series makes use of the new CCD drive system and new easy-to-use image
conversion functions resulting in higher image quality. This high performance brought about by Panasonic
technology promises to be a major breakthrough for business.
Color Micro-Camera Series
3CCD
1. Improved image quality by using
the progressive system
For the first time in the industry, the detachable CCD
drive uses the progressive system. This drive creates
a sharper image by controlling flickering (GP-
US732H).
2. Realizing high sensitivity and
high resolution
Camera Control Unit
The GP-US522HB has over 800-line horizontal
resolution, 5 lux minimum illumination, and in
addition has a signal-to-noise ratio of 62 dB, and is
equipped with a gamma correction function and 6-
Axis color matrix control function, producing life-
like sharp images.

3. Superior operationality
There is a screen menu showing the camera set-up
and a scene (parameter) file that stores setting
information for switching parameters. These
advanced functions are easy to understand and use.

1. Equipped with mirror, rotation and
freeze-image functions
In addition to a mirror function that permits right to
left image reversal, and a rotation function that
permits moving the image right and left and up and
down, cameras of this series are also equipped with a
freeze-image function for image verification. This
camera series has in mind user convenience and
operationality.

In addition to White Balance, AGC and ELC, the
camera is equipped with a photometry area selection
function enabling adjusting the image signal level to
conform to the conditions where it is used.

3CCD Color Micro-Camera Series
Unprecedented High Image Quality
High Specification Models to Match Multiple Environments
Camera Control Unit
GP-US742CU
While continuing to maintain the same superior sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio, horizontal resolution and
color reproduction capability as before, new camera heads have been added for use with this first in the industry
CCD drive system. To meet the metal fatigue test required for imaging dark areas and miniscule differences in
color shadings, appropriate solid images are provided for a wide variety of environments.

On-Screen Menu to Simplify the Setting of
Highly Advanced Functions
The on-screen menu facilitates simple and
efficient adjustment operations.
2-Dimensional Low-Pass Filter to Control Moire
The set-up menu includes the gamma correction function.You can
select optimum contrast settings for both bright and dark areas. This
function prevents blurring and thus provides a clearer picture even in
bright or dark areas.
The set-up menu includes a 2D Low-Pass Filter.You can turn ON or
OFF this function from the menu. The 2D Low-Pass Filter prevents
moire and improves image clarity.
Uses the progressive system for the first time
in the industry
Realizes sharp images with no flickering
You can make these adjustments while
observing the object image. A list of the
functions of each camera is displayed on the
monitor screen. Simply select the appropriate
presets and press the appropriate buttons to
complete the setting of the Color Matrix Control, the Red
Enhancement, the Gamma Correction and many other highly advanced
functions.
Other Functions
For the first time in the industry, GP-US732H uses the progressive
system with a separated camera head and control unit. The progressive
system, compared to the former interlace scanning system which is
divided into two steps, accomplishes the scanning in one step by
dividing video images into even and odd fields. By so doing, the
resulting image is sharper with less flickering, making this an ideal
camera for use over a long period as a microscope camera for
research. Furthermore, because it is possible to switch the interlace
and progressive systems, when necessary, moving images can be
captured by the progressive system and image subjects with little
movement or where extra sensitivity is required can be captured by the
interlace system.
6-Axis Color Matrix Control
Function-Reproduction of Life-like Colors
Each color can be adjusted separately without changing the white
balance of the whole image. For red colors, very fine adjustment is
available, which is particularly useful for biological research. With this
function, you can make optimum color adjustments for various systems
and applications.
Syncro-Scan adjusts the shutter timing for synchronization with a
computer display. Electronic Shutter (7 steps between 1/100 (PAL :
1/120) sec and 1/10,000 sec) ELC (Electric Light Control) Function.
Other functions include the freeze-image capturing function and 2.5 x
electronic zoom function. When the imaging subject is a moving object,
imaging it by the progressive system produces a high resolution image
that is free of blurs.
A Scene File Function for Storing and
Recalling Setting Information
Major Operating Control & Switches
GP-US742CU
You can store in the memory up to two
different scene files containing the settings
you have made in the on-screen menu. For
example, you can store the setting for imaging
bright subjects as Scene 1, the setting for
imaging dark subjects as Scene 2 and either
may be called up when needed.
