Phase One iXM-RS280F

280 MP large-format aerial cameraRGB · Optional 4-BAND configuration

iXM-RS280F creates a 280 MP central-projection image from two 150 MP nadir images. BSI CMOS sensors and dual 90 mm lenses deliver highly detailed aerial imaging over large areas.

Capture large areas in high detail.

01

Central projection

Two nadir images are converted into one 20150 × 14118 pixel central-projection image.

02

RGB and 4-BAND

The 4-BAND option supports different spectral outputs with an additional NIR sensor and lens.

03

Short exposure

A leaf shutter up to 1/2000 second aims to reduce motion blur during aerial imaging.
