Rolling-shutter color applications
The Sony IMX178 sensor in MV-CT1CG0060/R records 3072 × 2048 px color at 40.0 fps. Its 1/1.8 in CMOS area uses 2.4 × 2.4 µm pixels and a rolling shutter, with Rolling and Global Reset exposure operation. Images move over Gigabit Ethernet through an 8-pin M12 X-Code connector, and the camera supports PoE plus a separate 9 V DC to 24 V DC input.
This 6 MP configuration fits detailed color inspection of stationary parts or strobe-synchronized capture, including surface review and several features in one field. Exposure spans 25 µs to 3.1 sec, while binning and decimation provide 2 × 2 and 4 × 4 reductions. With correct lens, lens cap and wiring installation, IP67 protection permits placement close to the process without an added camera enclosure.
MV-CT1CG0050/G uses a global shutter and runs at 59.2 fps with 2448 × 2048 px, so it is better matched to motion-sensitive geometry. MV-CT1CG0089/G also uses a global shutter and increases width to 4096 px, though speed is 32.5 fps. MV-CT1MG0060/R matches 3072 × 2048 px and 40.0 fps in monochrome. Choose MV-CT1CG0060/R when its 6 MP color detail is used with stationary targets or strobe-synchronized capture.

FAQ
Which listed lenses cover the MV-CT1CG0060/R sensor?
MVL-KF1628M-12MP and MVL-KF5024M-25MP are the C-mount choices. Each covers the Sony IMX178's 1/1.8 in format. The respective 12 MP and 25 MP lens classes exceed the camera's 3072 × 2048 px output, satisfying the stated format and nominal-resolution relationship.
How is MV-CT1CG0060/R connected for data and power?
An 8-pin M12 X-Code connector carries 1000 Mbit/s Gigabit Ethernet and supports PoE, with 100 Mbit/s compatibility also listed. The camera typically draws 1.6 W at 12 V DC. A separate 9 V DC to 24 V DC feed can enter through the 8-pin M8 A-Code power and I/O port.
What motion limitation comes with the MV-CT1CG0060/R rolling shutter?
The Sony IMX178 has a rolling shutter, so rapid motion across the image may change geometry from row to row. Exposure operation includes Rolling and Global Reset, but this is not a global-shutter sensor. The 3072 × 2048 px camera is consequently aimed at stationary targets or strobe-synchronized detail capture.
What exposure and color formats can MV-CT1CG0060/R use?
Exposure covers 25 µs to 3.1 sec and gain covers 0 dB to 24 dB. Output includes Bayer RG through 12Packed, YUV422Packed, YUV422_YUYV_Packed, RGB 8 and BGR 8, plus Mono 8. At full frame, Bayer RG 8 reaches 40.0 fps with lossless compression enabled.
What sealing and temperature range apply to MV-CT1CG0060/R?
IP67 protection requires correct lens, lens cap and wiring installation. The camera operates from –30 °C to 60 °C at 20% RH to 95% RH without condensation. Its enclosure measures 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm and has an approximate mass of 124 g.
