OPTO-EDU Launches A59.4971 Auto-Focus 4K EDF Microscope Camera

—8.3MP, HDMI/USB/LAN triple-output, motorized autofocus, and EDF technology for research, industry, and education[January 19, 2026, China] — OPTO-EDU, a world leader in optical and digital imaging solutions, presents its next-generation high performance digital microscope camera, A59.4971. It has an 8.3 MP (3840×2160) HD CMOS sensor, 4K@30 fps video, and motorized auto-in-focus and Extended Depth of Field (EDF). With high sensitivity fluorescence imaging, A58.4972 enables life science, materials analysis, semiconductor inspection, education, and remote collaboration at unprecedented clarity, efficiency, and intelligence.

The A59.4971 features are its motorized autofocus. In most microscopy, the sample surface is partially blurred due to uneven samples. A594971 captures multiple focal planes along the Z-axis in one second and quickly generates them into single high-resolution image, which can improve observation efficiency and data reliability. This is crucial for complex samples such as rough industrial parts, thick tissue, insects or microelectronic structures. Furthermore, the camera supports high-sensitivity fluorescence excitation (with optional LED light sources at different wavelengths), and can capture bright low-noise fluorescent signals even in dim lighting (ideal for basic cell biology, pathology, environmental microbiology problems)

The A59.4971 offers versatile connectivity through three simultaneous output modes

• HDMI: Direct connection to monitors for zero-latency 4K live preview—perfect for classroom demonstrations or conference presentations;
• SB 3.0: Plug-and-play compatibility with Windows, macOS, and Linux systems, supporting mainstream image acquisition software;
• LAN (Gigabit Ethernet): Supports PoE (Power over Ethernet, optional), enabling easy deployment in networked multi-point systems for telepathology, smart factories, or distributed laboratories.

The camera also features a standard C-mount (0.5X/1X optional), allowing effortless integration with most optical microscope bodies for rapid digital transformation of existing setups.

• 8.3MP global shutter CMOS sensor: True color reproduction and fine detail without motion blur;
• Motorized autofocus + manual fine-tuning: Balances automation with precision control;
• Built-in image processing engine: Real-time white balance, gamma correction, noise reduction, and sharpening;
• Compact and lightweight design: Weighs only ~500g for easy integration and portability;
• SDK support: Comprehensive API provided for OEM customization and third-party Software Development.

“The A59.4971 is more than just a camera—it’s a bridge between optical microscopy and intelligent digital workflows,” said OPTO-EDU’s Product Director. “By combining autofocus, EDF, and multi-protocol output in one compact unit, we eliminate traditional limitations in focus depth and system compatibility, delivering a truly ‘what you see is what you get’ experience.”

• Academic & Research Institutions: Cell observation, histology, fluorescent labeling experiments;
• Industrial Quality Control: PCB inspection, metal fracture analysis, precision component measurement;
• Medical & Pathology: Remote diagnostics, digital slide archiving;
• Education & Public Outreach: 4K live-streamed lessons, virtual lab environments;
• Environmental & Food Safety: Microbial counting, contaminant identification.
