Falcon XDR and HG Series Camera User's Manual DALSA
Introduction to the Falcon XDR and HG Cameras 13
1.3 Responsivity and Quantum Efficiency
The responsivity graph describes the sensor response to different wavelengths of light (excluding lens
and light source characteristics). Visible light spans wavelengths between 390-780 nanometers.
Wavelengths below 390 nm are ultra-violet while those above 780 nm are termed infra-red.
Note: DALSA recommends using a 700nm cutoff filter with the HG and XDR color series
cameras since the blue and green color filters become transparent above 700nm.
