Astro camera veLOX 178 C color sensor<\/strong> is made for serious astrophotographers who want to combine speed and detail. This camera captures pin-sharp images of Jupiter, Saturn or the Moon within milliseconds without compromising on noise or sensitivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2713 Sony IMX178 sensor with STARVIS technology<\/strong> - Very low noise and high light sensitivity
\u2713 60 fps at full resolution<\/strong> - Ideal for lucky imaging of planets and the Moon
\u2713 Very small pixels (2.4 \u00b5m)<\/strong> - Capture fine structures such as Cassini lines or lunar craters
\u2713 Suitable for deep-sky<\/strong> - Thanks to high quantum efficiency, also usable for bright deep-sky work
\u2713 No active cooling required<\/strong> - Perfect balance between speed, detail and compactness<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This camera is compatible with SharpCap, FireCapture, PHD2 and other recording and guiding software via ASCOM or native drivers. With a 1.25\u2033 mount, C-Mount AND 1.25\u2033 filter thread, it can be flexibly used with virtually any telescope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
