Altair Hypercam 294C PRO Camera w- 4GB DDR3 Buffer
The fan-cooled Hypercam 294C Colour camera is the preferred alternative to a DSLR camera when it comes to astro-imaging, due to it's higher sensitivity to Hydrogen Alpha light. The 11.6mp Sony IMX294 is a 4/3rds sensor (23.2mm diagonal) capable of 14bit depth. It is Back Side Illuminated (BSI) with both Starvis and EXMOR-R ratings, making it ideal for low light imaging applications such as astronomy and microscopy. The Hypercam features fan cooling with 4GB DDR3 RAM, and amp glow reduction for easier image capture and processing. Due to it's low read noise, the Hypercam 294C is suitable for both deepsky and solar system imaging with ROI, as well as "frame stacking and averaging" in microscopy applications. The PRO Version has the following features: 4GB DDR3 RAM Memory Buffer for better performance. Amp glow reduction - practically zero amp glow. Temperature sensor, with data available in realtime, temperature written to .FITS files for easier processing. ROI
