A purpose-built astrophotography camera optimized for high-quality still images. This unit integrates a Sony IMX571 back-illuminated 26 MP color APS-C sensor to deliver high signal-to-noise ratio, effectively eliminate amp-glow, and capture a wide dynamic range—advantages important for deep-sky and long-exposure imaging.
Designed for demanding astrophotography workflows, the camera incorporates an innovative cooled sensor system engineered to cancel vibration that can degrade subframe sharpness and star profiles during long exposures. The cooled design improves thermal noise performance while retaining mechanical stability.
The sensor is covered by an anti-reflection (AR) window and the camera is full-spectrum capable. Removing the constraint of a fixed IR filter in front of the sensor gives you freedom to use your own filter set (narrowband, LRGB, or custom filters) to match specific targets and imaging goals.
Key benefits for professional or institutional buyers:
- High-quality 26 MP color APS-C sensor (Sony IMX571) for detailed still imaging
- Excellent dynamic range and high signal-to-noise ratio for low-light scenes
- Zero amp-glow characteristic helps preserve uniform backgrounds in long exposures
- Active cooling with vibration-reduction design to maintain image sharpness
- AR-coated full-spectrum window enables flexible filter choices without an internal IR cutoff
Applications: professional and research-grade astrophotography, observatory imaging, advanced amateur and commercial imaging services where long exposures, low noise and filter flexibility are required.
