The monochrome all-round camera for deep-sky objects and planets, with 6.4 MP resolution
The Touptek EP3CMOS06300KMA is a monochrome camera for deep sky and planetary photography. It is a 'universal talent' for any astronomical object that you would like to photograph. The sensor's 6.4 megapixel specification means you can use maximum resolution. Even higher image quality is achieved, unlike a colour sensor. This camera is suitable for all amateur astronomers who value seeing a wealth of detail in monochrome or who want to compose beautiful colour photographs using LRGB filters. The new back-illuminated sensor ensures higher photosensitivity and extremely low noise.
The all-round camera for deep-sky and guiding, with 6.4 MP resolution
The Touptek EP3CMOS06300KPA camera is an expert deep sky instrument, but can also be used universally for any other astronomical object. A Sony IMX178 chip and 6.4 Megapixel resolution deliver consistently brilliant colour photos. The CMOS sensor is equipped with state-of-the-art technology, providing superior light sensitivity and extremely low noise - your best shots will be more than good enough to hang on the wall.
The advantages in a nutshell
- high-sensitivity and low-noise CMOS sensor
- rolling shutter for fast and brilliant images
- perfect for deep sky exposures and guiding
- high resolution and large image field of 3096x2080 pixels
- 2.4ìm pixels - ideal for high-precision guiding
High-performance CMOS sensor with 6.4 megapixels
The heart of this camera is Sony's IMX178 sensor. It functions using STARVIS and Exmor R technology, which make exposures of faint nebulae possible in previously unimagined ways. But what is behind this? - the special technology involves a back-lit sensor with extremely high sensitivity and less noise. Your exposures provide extremely clear images that are rich in detail. In contrast to conventional sensors, the photodiodes are completely free of any shadowing - that all means more light is available and you will be able to expose faint astronomical objects in a shorter time. The extensive 14 bit dynamic range means you will benefit from enormous contrast, making your deep sky objects uniquely beautiful.
Better photos thanks to the rolling shutter
The CMOS sensor is equipped with a rolling shutter. The image is globally exposed, but every line of the chip is rapidly scanned so light continues to reach the pixels. This increases the sensitivity, reduces the noise of the image, and makes image exposures faster.
