An object imaging system, particularly for slaughtered animal carcases or meat pieces, includes an imaging station to which the object (10) is introduced, a camera (20) at the imaging station, and lighting means (30). The imaging station includes a backing member (15) for providing a background for the object (10), and an image capture enclosure (21) which has an open side (22) facing towards the backing member (15), the inside surfaces of the enclosure (21) being non-reflective. The camera (20) is mounted in the enclosure (21) and faces towards the open side (22) and towards the backing member (15). The lighting means (30) includes multiple light sources (31), some of the light sources (35, 36, 37) being provided inside the image capture enclosure (21) and located so as to face towards the open side (22) thereof and some of the light sources (32, 33, 34) being provided outside the enclosure to face towards the backing member (15), the light sources (31) being located at points which define an imaginary concave surface (38) with the concavity facing towards and being generally focussed on a region where the object (10) is introduced for imaging. The camera (20) has an associated camera housing (40) completely enclosing the camera in a sealed environment, the housing (40) having an associated temperature control means (45) operative to maintain a predetermined temperature or temperature range for the camera (20).
