Newvicon Tubes

Newvicon was developed as an improved form of Vidicon Tube with high light sensitivity and an infra-red spectral response. Further details of the technical differences between the different tubes available from Narragansett Imaging are available in the page Camera Tubes - Background Information.

If you are currently using a Newvicon tube that is not listed below then please refer to our cross reference guide to see if there is a Plumbicon tube equivalent or e-mail questions to: sales@nimaging.com.
