The ace L profits from the same evolutionary steps in firmware features as the ace U. Furthermore, it is capable of carrying high-resolution 9 and 12 MP Sony Pregius CMOS sensors with optical formats above 1". To accommodate these larger sensors, the camera housing is slightly larger than other ace models and has a footprint of 40 mm x 30 mm.

The highlights of the ace L at a glance:

• Large 9 and 12 MP Sony Pregius CMOS sensors up to 1.1”: IMX253, IMX255, IMX267, IMX304
• Brilliant image quality at speeds of up to 40 fps
• Includes high value-add features (e.g. PGI)
• GigE Vision 2.0 and USB3 Vision compliant
