Player One Mars-M camera: high-performance monochrome planetary imaging

The camera March-Mdeveloped by Player One Astronomyis a compact, high-performance monochrome camera specially designed for planetary, lunar and solar imaging. Equipped with the Sony IMX290 CMOS sensor, it combines speed, sensitivity and precision, making it an ideal tool for demanding astrophotographers.

Main technical data

  • Sony IMX290 CMOS sensor : 1/2.8" format (5.6 mm x 3.2 mm), 2.1 megapixel resolution (1944 x 1096 pixels), 6.46 mm diagonal, 2.9 µm pixels for high sensitivity and precise detail.
  • Full Well depth : Maximum capacity of 12 ke, offering excellent dynamic range for planetary imaging.
  • High speed : Up to 136 FPS in RAW8 mode at full resolution, for effective freeze-framing of atmospheric turbulence.
  • BSI (Back-Side Illuminated) technology : Improves sensitivity and reduces noise for optimum results in low light.

Imaging performance

  • Increased sensitivity : As a monochrome camera, the Mars-M captures more incident light, producing brighter images with better contrast.
  • No Amp-Glow at all: Ensures a clean background even during long exposures.
  • HCG (High Conversion Gain) mode : Activates automatically at a gain of 80 or more, considerably reducing noise while maintaining a wide dynamic range.

Integrated technological advances

  • Integrated DDR3 cache (256 MB) : Stabilizes data transmission, prevents image loss even with a USB 2.0 connection.
  • DPS (Dead Pixel Suppression) technology : Automatically corrects defective pixels for a clean image.
  • Super AR Plus anti-reflective glass : High light transmission (310 nm to 1100 nm), effective in ultraviolet (UV) and near infrared (NIR).
  • Integrated advanced protection : Protects against overvoltage and overcurrent to ensure the safety of your equipment.

Ergonomic and robust design

The Mars-M's compact, solid design reflects Player One Astronomy's attention to detail. Its bright red and black finish ensures both attractive aesthetics and excellent heat dissipation. Thanks to its standard T2 thread, it integrates easily into all existing astronomical configurations.

Recommended applications

  • High-resolution planetary imaging : Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, etc.
  • Solar observation : Compatible with H-alpha or white-light filters.
  • Lunar imaging: Fast capture of precise details thanks to its high frame rate.
  • Self-steering : Increased sensitivity ideal for precise telescope guidance.

Additional highlights

  • Compatible with specialized software such as SharpCap Pro to precisely control gain and exposure.
  • Supplied complete with all necessary accessories: USB 3.0 cables, T2/1.25" adapters and protective cap.

Thanks to its advanced technical features and a design specially optimized for fast, precise imaging, the Mars-M from Player One Astronomy is the obvious choice for astrophotographers wishing to explore the fascinating details of our solar system.
