MV-CH250-90UC V4.0
Trade-off — needs agreement
The search threshold is met, but this is not a replacement without trade-offs.
Trade-offs to settle before you choose:
  • Frame rate: 14 instead of 15 fps (-6.67 %).
  • Pixel size, X: 2.5 instead of 2.74 µm (-8.76 %); the field of view will change with the same lens.
  • Pixel size, Y: 2.5 instead of 2.74 µm (-8.76 %); the field of view will change with the same lens.
  • Frame width: 5120 instead of 5320 px (-3.76 %).
With the same lens and working distance, on the full frame, the field of view changes: -12.19 % in width, +1.56 % in height. A smaller image circle is required — part of the field the existing lens covers goes unused.

Trade-off — needs agreement
The model meets the preliminary matching criteria for the specifications we could check; the differences are listed below.
Trade-offs to settle before you choose:
  • Pixel size, X: 2.5 instead of 2.74 µm (-8.76 %); the field of view will change with the same lens.
  • Pixel size, Y: 2.5 instead of 2.74 µm (-8.76 %); the field of view will change with the same lens.
  • Frame width: 5120 instead of 5320 px (-3.76 %).
  • Frame rate: the stated 30 fps at 5120 × 5120 and 8 bit needs 6.29 Gbit/s. The 5 Gbit/s link allows at most 23.84 fps before overhead. Check the operating mode.
