Omegon Camera veLOX 178 M Mono
The Omegon Camera veLOX 178 M Mono is a fast mono-astro camera for planets, Moon and Sun and also works excellently as an autoguider. With the Sony IMX178 sensor and its extremely small pixels (2.4 µm), you capture details you never see visually: from structures in Jupiter's clouds to fine lunar slits and solar flares.

What you can do with it

• Photograph planets and the Moon with high speed and sharpness
• See more contrast and detail thanks to mono shots and filters
• Use it as an autoguider for deep-sky photography
• Also capture nebulae and galaxies thanks to high sensitivity and low noise

Important to know
This camera does not have a built-in color filter (mono). For color, use separate filters or a filter wheel. Lucky imaging becomes easy thanks to USB 3.0 speeds and the ability to read only part of the sensor for even more images per second.
