Tasks and place in the range
Compact 26.2 MP color capture over Gigabit Ethernet is the role of MV-CH250-60GC. Its Stacked BSI rolling-shutter CMOS sensor measures 12.6 mm × 12.6 mm and records a square 5120 × 5120 Bayer BG 8 image at 4.7 fps. The 2.44 µm pixel pitch and C-mount package target fine color detail on stationary or slowly changing scenes rather than high-rate motion sequences.
The square frame suits color pattern checks, component arrays and broad surface inspection where both axes need equal sampling. With a rolling shutter and an exposure range starting at 116 µs, the target should remain still during acquisition for consistent geometry. Gigabit Ethernet can also carry PoE; a 9 V DC to 24 V DC input is available through the 6-pin P7 connection, which adds isolated input and output plus bidirectional I/O for triggering.
MV-CH250-60UC shares the 5120 × 5120 Stacked BSI color format and C-mount but reaches 14.8 fps through USB 3.0. MV-CH250-60UM offers the same USB rate and geometry in Mono 8. MV-CH250-90GC V4.0 stays with color GigE and C-mount at 5120 × 5120, changes to a Gpixel GMAX0505 global-shutter sensor with 2.5 µm pixels, and runs at 4.5 fps. Choose 60GC for Stacked BSI color and PoE, 60UC for faster USB color, or 90GC for global-shutter GigE color.

Selection and applications
Square-area color pattern inspection. Stationary 26.2 MP surface capture. PoE-connected Bayer BG 8 imaging.
Minimum setup: MV-CH250-60GC, a C-mount lens, a Gigabit Ethernet cable, and either PoE or a 9 V DC to 24 V DC supply.
Nearby in the range: MV-CH250-60UC — Prefer it for the same Bayer BG 8 frame at 14.8 fps over USB 3.0; MV-CH250-60UM — Prefer it for 5120 × 5120 Mono 8 at 14.8 fps over USB 3.0; MV-CH250-90GC V4.0 — Prefer it for 5120 × 5120 color with a global shutter over GigE.

FAQ
What motion regime suits the rolling-shutter MV-CH250-60GC?
The 5120 × 5120 Stacked BSI sensor uses a rolling shutter, so stationary or slowly changing scenes are the direct fit when geometry must remain stable. Full-frame Bayer BG 8 output is 4.7 fps, and exposure starts at 116 µs.
Can MV-CH250-60GC combine network data and camera power?
Yes. The Gigabit Ethernet interface supports PoE, allowing data and power on the network connection. A separate 9 V DC to 24 V DC supply is also supported. Typical camera consumption is 4.6 W at 12 V DC.
How does MV-CH250-60GC differ from the USB color version?
Both use a 12.6 mm × 12.6 mm Stacked BSI sensor, 5120 × 5120 Bayer BG 8 and C-mount. MV-CH250-60GC runs at 4.7 fps through Gigabit Ethernet with PoE; MV-CH250-60UC reaches 14.8 fps through USB 3.0.
What lens interface is provided for the compact 26.2 MP sensor?
The camera uses C-mount. Its sensor measures 12.6 mm × 12.6 mm with a 2.44 µm pixel pitch, so the selected lens must cover the square format and retain detail over the 5120 × 5120 color array.
Which environmental limits apply to the MV-CH250-60GC body?
The camera operates from –10 °C to 50 °C and from 20% RH to 95% RH without condensation. It carries IP40 with correct lens installation and wiring. The body is 29 mm × 44 mm × 59 mm and weighs approximately 96 g.
