Nikon Corp. announced the Digital Sight 100 digital camera for microscopes. The Digital Sight 100 can be used in combination with a full line-up of industrial microscopes and measuring microscopes. The digital camera offers high-definition, high-level color reproducibility, and an efficient workflow from viewing, recording, and sharing information, through the combination with Nikon’s NIS-Elements software. The Digital Sight 100 is expected to be used in a wide range of industries where users will be able to take high-quality images and smoothly share information.

Key features

  • High-definition / high-level color reproducibility / high frame rate: When combined with industrial microscopes (FN16), the Digital Sight 100 delivers 6.5-megapixel resolution (2944×2208 pixels), ensuring clear capture of fine structural details and rich color information. The camera alone delivers 17.7-megapixel resolution and supports wide-field imaging up to 4864 x 3648 pixels (FN25).
  • Works on multiple device interfaces: As it is compatible with USB 3.2, HDMI, Wi-Fi, and Ethernet, operators can flexibly operate and share information from the camera even to distant locations.
  • Intuitive operability and software integration: Operators can reduce their workloads with easy operations by using the camera with Nikon’s NIS-Elements LE software, as well as the latest versions of NIS-Elements AR/BR/D (to be released in January 2026).

The Digital Sight 100 provides excellent comfort and high-definition images for a wide range of observation methods. The combination with software makes viewing, recording, and sharing more efficient. Sales launch for the Digital Sight 100 will be January 9, 2026.
