Cooled monochrome astronomical camera for deep-sky imaging.<\/p>\n
The monochrome version captures light without a color filter array. To construct a color image, plan to take images with the appropriate filters and combine them during processing. It also allows you to work with narrow-band filters depending on the target. Active cooling helps stabilize long exposures and calibration. A compatible external power supply is required; the USB connection does not replace the power supply for the cooled module. Choose an operating temperature that the system can maintain throughout the entire session. Before mounting, check the thread, the distance between the sensor and the connector, and the space occupied by the filters or the optical splitter. The sensor alone does not determine the final field of view: the instrument, focal length, and any reducers also play a role. Take your calibration images using settings consistent with those used for observations. An astronomical camera provides no protection for solar observation: any use on the Sun requires a filter specifically designed for the instrument and properly installed.<\/p>\n
