Two New ZENITH 100GigE Cameras Now Shipping

Emergent Vision Technologies announces two new ZENITH 100GigE cameras are now shipping with the Sony IMX928 and IMX947 sensors

Port Coquitlam, BC, Canada – 9 June 2026 – Emergent Vision Technologies is now shipping two new models in its ZENITH 100GigE camera series: the HZ-65000-SB, featuring the Sony IMX 928 sensor, and the HZ-25000-SBS, with the IMX 947 sensor.

Two new ZENITH cameras that feature the Sony IMX928 and IMX947 sensors are now available for shipping.

Two new ZENITH 100GigE cameras are now shipping

First announced in September 2025 as part of Emergent’s latest group of Sony Pregius S-based ZENITH 100GigE cameras, these models give vision system designers new options for ultra high-speed resolution imaging using the QSFP28 100GigE interface.

Both cameras support GigE Vision 3.0, RDMA / RoCE v2, and GenICam.  Used within Emergent’s proven and mature system architecture, they also offer low CPU overhead, low latency, low jitter, and IEEE1588 synchronization for multi-camera systems.

The HZ-65000-SB features the Sony Pregius S IMX928 CMOS sensor and captures 68MP images at 8256 x 8256 resolution. At full resolution, the camera reaches 138fps at 8-bit, 126fps at 10-bit, and 90fps at 12-bit. The IMX928 sensor is back-illuminated for better low light performance and clearer images at high framerates.

The HZ-25000-SBS features the Sony Pregius S IMX947 CMOS sensor and captures 26MP images at 5136 x 5136 resolution. At full resolution, the camera reaches 423fps at 8-bit, 383fps at 10-bit, and 277fps at 12-bit. Its larger 5.48 x 5.48µm pixels make it a practical choice for high-speed imaging setups where light collection, sensitivity, and reduced motion blur are important. The IMX947 sensor is also back-illuminated.

Each of the two ZENITH models have the M52 lens mount as standard, with RF, EF/F and Micro Four-Thirds mounts also available.

Typical applications for the HZ-65000-SB and HZ-25000-SBS include industrial inspection, machine vision, biomedical imaging, sports analytics and broadcast, virtual reality, volumetric capture, motion capture, immersive 3D content, and AI-powered computer vision.

Multi-camera systems using ZENITH 100GigE cameras can be built with Emergent’s eCapture Pro or eSDK Pro software. Zero-copy and NVIDIA GPUDirect support allow image data to move efficiently from camera to processing hardware for real-time acquisition, processing, transfer, and storage.
