Canadian digital camera manufacturer Point Grey announced a new model to their Firefly collection today. The Firefly MV is both Firewire and USB 2.0 compatible. The compact camera, retailing at USD $325, is targeted towards microscopy, bioscience, medical and visualization applications. Capable of shooting a 752x480 image at 60 FPS or a 1328x1048 picture at 23 FPS, the highlight of this camera is the highly sensitive 1/3-inch Sony IMX035 CMOS image sensor, which the manufacturers say produces a high signal-to-noise ratio, superior color fidelity, rolling shutter, and no smear images.
