CAMTEK ISSUES REVENUE GUIDANCE FOR THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2005

Expects Third Quarter Revenues of Between $16-18 Million

MIGDAL HA’EMEK, Israel, September 7, 2005 – Camtek Ltd. (NASDAQ: CAMT) announced today that it expects it revenues in the third quarter of 2005 to total between $16 and 18 million.

Rafi Amit, Camtek’s CEO, commented, “Currently, the PCB market, which still represents over 75% of our revenues, is characterized by very short delivery times in the region of two weeks only. This makes it difficult to forecast revenues early in the quarter. At this time though, we feel comfortable enough to say that we expect our third quarter total revenues to fall in the range of $16-18 million.”

Mr. Amit concluded, “We believe that our third quarter sales to the PCB industry will still remain at a similar level to those of the second quarter. However, we see improvement in market environment in the semiconductor manufacturing and packaging industry, which supports our expectations for continuing growth in our revenues from this segment in the range of 25-30% in the forth quarter.”
