What are the key differences between sCMOS and intensified cameras?

sCMOS cameras offer low noise, high dynamic range, and fast frame rates, making them ideal for quantitative imaging in fluorescence microscopy, high-content screening, and spectroscopy. Intensified cameras, on the other hand, incorporate an image intensifier that amplifies low-light signals, allowing detection of single photons or extremely weak events, useful in applications like time-resolved fluorescence, combustion imaging, or LIDAR
