Presentation and discussion
The Olympus DP21 is the perfect image source for the presentation of microscopic images, since it can be directly connected to a large flatscreen or projector. As a result it can be used to review and display the finest details of delicate specimens to multiple people simultaneously, or even display images to entire auditorium during a presentation. |

Outstanding colour reproduction
The 2-megapixel DP21 uses a 1,600 x 1,200 pixel CCD and a 12-bit analogue-to-digital converter. This enables it to display subtle colour differences, providing outstanding colour fine detail fidelity. As a result, pathologists, cytologists, haematologists and microbiologists will find the accurate colour reproduction of their specimens a welcome change. |

Stand-alone operation
The DP21 provides complete stand-alone functionality (no PC required),making it ideal when precious bench space is limited. The camera is controlled from an ergonomic, handset control box providing smooth operation via the intuitive layout of the function keys. Furthermore, a standard PC mouse, keyboard and monitor can be connected via USB/DVI connectors to ensure easy and precise execution of various on screen measurement and annotation functions.
The focusing indicator and panning 1x-4x digital zoom function mean that faster and more accurate focusing can be achieved with ease, even at lower magnifications. This, together with a calibrated scale bar and numerous measurement functions, enables maximum flexibility in imaging protocol development.

Storage and network
As a result of the DP21 features, manual imaging is quick and easy, and the camera can even be set to automatically control the exposure and white balance for the image. Furthermore, an over/underexposure notification ensures images are perfect every time. Images can be stored in different resolutions onto the supplied USB 2.0 Memory stick. In addition, the device can be integrated into your local LAN network, giving access to the captured images from any workstation within the network. |

PC Software control
The DP21 camera is also available without the control unit. In this version it can be connected via FireWire™ IEEE 1394a to a PC or laptop running Windows XP or Vista. In this configuration it can be used as a fully integrated component of the Olympus software packages for life science or materials science. Each range presents an array of solutions specially designed to provide flexible and easy-to-use functionality for better image acquisition, processing, analysis, evaluation and report generation. |
