Falcon4-CLHS Cameras

More Pixels. More Frames. More Power.

True High Performance

For true high-performance imaging, turn to the Falcon™4-CLHS camera series. Using Teledyne Imaging’s advanced CMOS architectures, the Falcon4-CLHS cameras offer unique, unprecedented capabilities for large area, high resolution, high speed imaging. Models include the high-speed 11.2 M camera with a frame rate up to 609 fps and the high-resolution 86 M camera with a frame rate up to 16 fps.

Take more images. A lot more images!

Teledyne DALSA presents the new 11M Falcon4-CLHS, the camera of choice when high-speed imaging is the top priority. With 11.2 megapixels, 609 fps, a global shutter sensor, and a large field of view of up to 4480 pixels wide, this camera can capture images at a rate that can greatly increase imaging system efficiency. Available in two monochrome versions, the Falcon4-CLHS M4480 and Falcon4-CLHS M4400.

High frame rate applications

The Falcon4-CLHS M4480 / M4400’s large pixel width and very high frame rate offer a powerful solution to many imaging challenges:
