ZWO ASI2600MM-Pro 26 Megapixel USB3.0 Cooled Monochrome Astronomy Camera for Astrophotography

Features

• ZWO ASI2600MM-Pro cooled monochrome astronomy camera for capturing high-resolution images of deep-sky objects such as nebulae, star clusters, supernova remnants, and galaxies through a telescope on a motorized equatorial mount; Using color or narrowband astronomy filters (not included), this camera can also be used to create color astronomy images with standard image processing techniques
• Advanced APS-C (23.5mm x 15.7mm) CMOS sensor with 6248x4176 (26 megapixel) resolution to capture fine detail in astronomical objects; Integrated TEC cooling reduces sensor temperature to 35C below ambient to enable low-noise imaging of fainter deep-sky objects
• Fast USB3.0 transfer at up to 3.5 frames per second at maximum resolution; 256MB DDR3 buffer for quick and stable data transfer and reduced amp glow; includes separate USB2.0 hub for powering accessories such as autoguiding camera and electronic focuser (not included)
• Compact and attractive red anodized CNC aluminum body stands up to heavy field use; Connects to telescope focuser or accessories with included T-threaded adapters
• A separate 12V@3A power supply (not included) is required to power the camera and TEC cooler; all software and drivers are available from the manufacturers website; compatible with Mac OS X and Windows (32-bit and 64-bit)

Description

The ZWO ASI2600MM-Pro is a highly sensitive monochrome astronomy camera for advanced deep-sky and solar system imaging through a telescope. The camera incorporates an advanced APS-C 26-megapixel CMOS sensor with a 28.3mm diagonal and high quantum efficiency to help you extract maximum detail in your astrophotos while keeping noise and exposure time as low as possible. The camera also features TEC-cooling to reduce sensor noise for superb performance when imaging faint astronomical objects. This camera is ideal for capturing images of astronomical objects like nebulae, galaxies, supernova remnants, and star clusters, as well as solar system objects. Using color or narrowband astronomy filters (not included), this camera can also be used to create color astronomy images with standard image processing techniques The camera includes an internal 256MB DDR3 memory buffer for quick and stable data transfer. The USB3.0 port offers a fast capture rate of 3.5 frames-per-second at the full resolution of 6248x4176, and much faster rates at lower resolutions. NOTE: This camera is best used with a refractor or reflector telescope mounted on a solid equatorial mount that can accurately track the motion of the sky. It is not intended for taking images through the eyepiece of a telescope. You may require additional accessories such as an autoguider or focal reducer to get the best results. All software and drivers for this camera are available from the manufacturer’s website.
