Visit ZWO ASI585MM Pro is a cooled monochrome astronomical camera designed for astrophotographers seeking excellent sensitivity and great versatility. Equipped with the high-performance Sony IMX585 sensor, it combines a resolution of 3840 × 2160 pixels at a rate of up to 47 frames per second at full resolution. This combination makes it a particularly attractive camera for both deep-sky imaging and rapid imaging of celestial objects.
Thanks to its monochrome sensor, the ASI585MM Pro allows you to take full advantage of astronomical filters, particularly when capturing images LRGB or narrowband. The absence of a Bayer filter allows each pixel to receive light directly, which optimizes signal utilization and offers great flexibility in creating detailed monochrome images.
At the heart of the ASI585MM Pro is the Sony IMX585, a CMOS sensor particularly prized for its performance in astrophotography. Its resolution of 3840 × 2160 pixels, approximately 8.3 megapixels, provides sufficient resolution to capture the details of celestial objects while maintaining a high frame rate.
The sensor format also offers an excellent balance between resolution, sensitivity, and field of view. It is suitable for a wide range of setups, particularly with astronomical binoculars and short- to medium-focal-length telescopes. For astrophotographers who want to work in monochrome, this camera also allows you to use different filters to precisely select the wavelengths captured.
One of the ASI585MM Pro's main strengths is its ability to reach up to 47 frames per second at full resolution. This high frame rate enables rapid image acquisition and is a major advantage for applications that require a large number of images in a short amount of time.
This speed is particularly useful for the’planetary and lunar imaging, where the goal is generally to capture several thousand images in order to then select the best ones and stack them. The camera can also be used for Live View and to quickly review the results obtained during an acquisition session.
The ASI585MM Pro's monochrome design opens up a wide range of creative and technical possibilities. When used with the right filters, it allows you to precisely separate the different components of an image and create compositions LRGB, Ha, OIII, or SII.
This approach is particularly well-suited for imaging nebulae. Narrowband filters, in particular, allow astronomers to isolate the characteristic emissions of certain ionized gases and highlight structures that are barely visible in conventional visible light. The camera thus serves as a versatile foundation for astrophotographers looking to move toward a more advanced monochrome setup.
The built-in cooling system allows the ASI585MM Pro to be used effectively for long-exposure imaging. By maintaining the sensor at a controlled temperature, the cooling system helps limit the thermal noise and produces cleaner images during deep-sky sessions.
This feature effectively complements the capabilities of the Sony IMX585 sensor. As a result, the camera can be used for both rapid captures and a series of exposures intended for stacking. It therefore offers great flexibility for astrophotographers who wish to use a single camera across multiple imaging disciplines.
Thanks to its Sony IMX585 sensor and its resolution of 3840 × 2160 pixels and its maximum speed of 47 FPSthe ZWO ASI585MM Pro is a particularly versatile solution. Its monochrome operation allows for full use of astronomical filters, while its cooling system provides the performance needed for long exposures.
