15th DECEMBER 2025, Pitstone, United Kingdom - Specialised Imaging report on the increasing popularity of their high-speed camera refurbishment service that enables users to integrate new state-of-the-art system components to build a virtually new camera. Instead of spending time and money on repairing an existing camera (and then worrying about its reliability and obsolete components), Specialised Imaging can upgrade almost any image intensified digital camera to provide you with much improved performance at a significantly lower cost than buying a completely new camera. 

Component obsolescence is not the only challenge with high-speed imaging cameras. Interface standards are changing just as fast and older standards adopted in the early 90s and 00s are now not supported by the latest PC operating systems. Drawing upon their unique experience in image intensifier technology, and with the support of image intensifier manufacturers, Specialised Imaging can revitalise older intensified cameras; be it single shot or multiple frames. 

As market leader in ultra high-speed the company’s array of controller and high voltage circuitry draws upon the latest components to achieve unmatched performance. Constant investment in the continued development of these units ensures that obsolescence will not be an issue.

Specialised Imaging can upgrade many cameras, using our off-the-shelf controller (for single or multiple image intensifier systems), and high voltage circuitry. Since all the control using our electronics will be via standard 1Gbps ethernet your revitalised camera is future proofed. Over the last decade – Specialised Imaging have upgraded many older framing cameras to the same standard as their SIM multiple framing camera.
