Dear All,
	I have become interested in the low cost high sensitivity integrating 
video cameras for the detection of fluorescent signals (approaching 0.00005 
lux).  For those interested in the stars see Sky and Telescope December 
2003 (Deep-sky Imaging with Integrating Video Cameras).  My interest is due 
to their price aprox $250-800 depending on the model, and very low noise 
levels.  My question for anyone is have they tried them to analyze 
fluorescent signals on a microscope and is there an inexpensive method of 
acquiring the images onto a PC or Mac.

Many thanks

Mark Coles
