Astro camera guiding and planetary photography 2.0 MP mono

Astro camera guiding and planetary photography 2.0 MP mono is designed for those seeking maximum sensitivity in both autoguiding and photography. Thanks to its monochrome sensor, this camera performs exceptionally well with faint stars as well as detailed planetary images - ideal for precision and control under all conditions.

✓ Monochromatic precision - No Bayer filter means maximum light output per pixel. Perfect for accurate autoguiding and photometry.
✓ Ultimate sensitivity - The Sony IMX290 sensor captures faint stars and structures that color cameras often miss.
✓ Compatible with narrowband filters - Capture structures in H-alpha, OIII or SII with full control over your transmission curve.
✓ Very widely applicable - Useful both as a guide camera and for planet and moon photography. Also usable for scientific applications.
✓ Full software support - Works seamlessly with PHD2, N.I.N.A., ASCOM and INDI. Plug in directly via USB 2.0.

For those who are serious about astrophotography and guiding, this camera is a reliable, efficient partner. Compact, light, precise - and with maximum signal output from every photon.
