Comprising two models, the Phantom Miro C210J and C210, the Miro C-Series features a 12 bit, 1/2 inch CMOS sensor that's capable of capturing images at a maximum speed of 2,000 frames per second (fps) at full 1280 x 1024 resolution. With standard mounting holes strategically integrated into the camera bodies, the Miro C210J and C210 can be securely fastened and safely positioned for precise image capture no matter how challenging the location may be.

Moreover, each camera has features to protect the images if a cable is severed during an experiment. The cameras have an internal battery and internal, non-removable Phantom CineFlash^® memory, and can immediately store images to the CineFlash. Should AC power be interrupted, the internal battery offers up to 30 minutes of backup power allowing the camera to store images to the local memory.

The difference between the Miro C210 and C210J are the connectors. The Phantom Miro C210 has connectors that are compatible with other Phantom Miro cameras for power and control, allowing it to operate as a stand-alone camera for a variety of scientific and industrial applications. The Miro C210J is designed to operate through a single cable to Vision Research's new Miro Junction Box (JBox), a flexible hub designed to not only help operate the camera but to create almost any multi-camera configuration imaginable.
