ToupTek G3M678C - Planetary camera & color guidance (STARVIS 2)

Visit ToupTek G3M678C is a camera planetary andself-steering color sensor-based Sony IMX678 1/1.8″ format (technology STARVIS 2). With 8.3 MP (3840 × 2160)and 2.0 µm pixelsa 12-bit ADC and theUSB 3.0 Type-Cit offers high cadencesa very low read noise and excellent sensitivity, especially in the near-infrared, for the Moon, planets, the Sun (suitable filters) and precise guidance via ST-4.

Highlights

  • Sensor : Sony IMX678 colorBSI, STARVIS 2, 1/1.8″ (≈ 7.7 × 4.3 mm).
  • Resolution : 3840 × 2160 (≈ 8.3 MP) - pixels 2.0 µm.
  • 12-bit ADC - Hardware ROI - digital binning 1×1 → 8×8.
  • High speed in full sensor (up to ≈ 50-60 fps) and > 100 fps in typical ROI.
  • Zero amp-glow - very low read noise - good EQ (peak > 80 %).
  • Integrated ST-4 for self-steering - frame buffer for stable transmission.
  • 1.25″ mounting (M28.5×0.6) + adapters C/CS - window AR/IR-cut depending on version.
