Color tasks and camera choices
Color inspection at 2448 × 2048 is the distinguishing use of MV-CA050-12UC. The Sony IMX264 CMOS sensor combines a 2/3-inch format, 3.45 µm pixels and global shutter with a USB 3.0 interface. Its listed rate is 47 fps in mono output and 60 fps in color output, giving the C-mount camera a useful balance of detail and motion capture in a 29 mm × 29 mm × 30 mm body.
The camera suits label verification, colored-component checks and assembly inspection in which both geometry and chromatic differences contribute to the decision. Global exposure keeps moving features aligned within a frame, while two isolated I/O signals and one bidirectional non-isolated line support trigger and strobe coordination through the P7 connector. The USB link is compatible with USB 2.0, and the unit accepts 9 V DC to 24 V DC.
MV-CA050-12UM shares the IMX264, 2/3-inch format and 2448 × 2048 frame but produces monochrome data at 47 fps and includes a 72 dB dynamic-range figure. MV-CB050-60UC-C-F also records 2448 × 2048 color with a global shutter, using a Stacked BSI sensor at 80 fps and USB 3.0 power. Choose MV-CA050-12UC for the IMX264 color path and CA housing; move to the CB model when 80 fps and its C-mount board-level form are required.

Selection and applications
Color verification of moving components. Label and assembly inspection at 2448 × 2048. Triggered color capture at 60 fps.
Minimum kit: MV-CA050-12UC, a 2/3-inch C-mount lens, a USB 3.0 cable, and a 9 V DC to 24 V DC supply make up the minimum imaging setup.
Nearby in the range: MV-CA050-12UM — Prefer it for monochrome IMX264 imaging at 47 fps.; MV-CB050-60UC-C-F — Prefer it for 2448 × 2048 color acquisition at 80 fps..

FAQ
What lens and image-circle geometry is needed by MV-CA050-12UC?
The lens connection is C-mount and the Sony IMX264 sensor is 2/3 inch. Select a C-mount lens covering that image format and capable of resolving 2448 × 2048 pixels with a 3.45 µm pixel pitch.
Which power input is specified for this color camera?
MV-CA050-12UC accepts a supply range of 9 V DC to 24 V DC. The power-consumption entry gives 3.3 W for color and 2.9 W for mono. The 6-pin P7 connection provides one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output and one bidirectional non-isolated I/O.
Why are both 47 fps and 60 fps stated for MV-CA050-12UC?
The documented maximum frame-rate entry distinguishes output variants: 47 fps for mono and 60 fps for color. MV-CA050-12UC is the color model, so the 60 fps color figure is the relevant maximum for its primary output.
What I/O is available for a triggered color inspection?
The P7 connector provides one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output and one bidirectional non-isolated I/O. These lines allow a machine sensor, camera exposure and illumination event to be coordinated.
When should the mono MV-CA050-12UM be selected instead?
Select MV-CA050-12UM when the result is based on monochrome intensity or geometry rather than color. It uses the same Sony IMX264, 2/3-inch format and 2448 × 2048 resolution, with a listed 47 fps.
