ToupTek G3M2210M camera (SC2210 mono sensor)

ToupTek G3M2210M camera (SC2210 mono sensor) - Ultra-fast planetary camera & USB 3.0 autoguider (mono)

Visit ToupTek G3M2210M is a camera monochrome compact and highly responsive, designed for two key applications: the planetary/lunar high-speed (lucky imaging) and’self-steering (guide bezel or OAG). Thanks to its interface USB 3.0 and a modern 4 µm pixels, offers an ideal combination of sensitivity, stability and speed - exactly what you're looking for to “freeze” turbulence on Jupiter/Saturn or to easily find guide stars, even in narrow fields.

Why the G3M2210M is formidable in planetary mode

• Up to 150 fps Capture a huge number of images to keep only the best (favorable seeing moments).
• Mono sensor excellent contrast and luminance efficiency (often the royal road in planetary imaging).
• ROI (Region of Interest) accelerate the cadence even further by reducing the area read on the sensor.
• Low reading noise This allows you to increase cadence without “breaking” the signal on fine details.

A real “little monster” for autoguiding (guide telescope or OAG)

In guiding, the priority is simple: detect faint stars and stable tracking. The G3M2210M ticks all the boxes:

• High sensitivity to hang stars even in OAG (where the field is often poor).
• Port ST-4 for direct on-camera guidance if required.
• USB 3.0 fast, comfortable transfer, useful for setups where maximum responsiveness is required.

SC2210 mono sensor: an excellent compromise between resolution and pixels

The on-board sensor (SmartSens SC2210 in version monochrome) proposes a definition Full HD 1920×1080, perfect for :

• the planetary (cadence + ROI + stacking),
• the guidance (stars that are easy to frame and isolate),
• l’EAA / short exposures on bright objects (depending on instrument and conditions).

Who's this camera for?

• Planetary imaging (Jupiter, Saturn, Mars) and lunar at high speed.
• Self-steering guide glasses or OAG, when you want a fast, sensitive camera.
• Users looking for a compact, easy-to-integrate camera with modern workflow via USB 3.0.

Tip In planetary mode, combine the G3M2210M with a filter (IR-pass, UV, red, etc.) depending on target and seeing, then stack (AutoStakkert!) and finalize with processing (wavelets / deconvolution) to extract maximum detail.
