I have a very nice older Hamamatsu Orca-ER CCD camera that is missing the power supply. I contacted Hamamatsu and according to the manufacturer, this unit has to be paired up with a power supply that has the same serial number as the unit. Since the powersupply is missing, the camera is one very expensive paperweight. I also asked if there was a buy back program but there is not. It is a shame that this high quality ccd camera is now nothing more than a paperweight.
Has anyone encountered a similar situatation? Any advice on a company that sells aftermarket powersupplies to get these guys running again?
