[3dem] new camera ...

[Sharon G Wolf]

Hi Denis
Indeed it all depends on your applications. We have Oneview cameras on our Tecnai Spirit and Arctica,  and also the new TVIPS XF416 camera on our T12 (LaB6), giving the opportunity to do all that Reinhard mentions.

And it is affordable, IMO, and reliable.
