CELESTRON NIGHTSCAPE CCD CAMERA FOR ASTROPHOTOGRAPHYCondition – NewNightscapeCCD camera combines the simplicity of a one-shot colour imaging camera with thesophisticated features and software of more expensive astronomical imagingsystems. Using a Kodak 10.7MP Colour Sensor and regulated TEC cooling system,Nightscape can give you instant results in just a single exposure. Coupled withthe internal mechanical shutter and control software you can also automaticallycombine multiple images and dark frames to create images comparable to thosetaken with  professional grade cameras costing thousands more. With theNightscape you get:
VersatilityWith compact 4.75 micron x 4.75 micron pixels and2x2 and 4×4  binning, the Nightscape is perfectly matched for optimalresolution at multiple F-numbers. With an F/10 system and 2×2 binning,Nightscape gives you a large image scale while still providing sub-arc secondimage sampling; ideal for bringing out fine detail in planets and compactdeep-sky objects.  Or take advantage of the high resolution 4.75micron x 4.75 micron pixels at f/2 to capture your favourite wide fieldobjects while maintaining resolution better than your “seeing”conditions. Nightscape gives you the versatility to match all the configurationof your EdgeHD, SCT or other optical system.Fidelity
The KodakKAI-10100 Colour Sensor offers both light sensitivity and a balanced spectralresponse for capturing true colour fidelity in a fraction of the time as with acolour filter wheel.
CoolingRegulated Thermoelectric Cooling (TEC) andvariable fan control provides a vibration free laminar air flow todramatically reduce thermal noise inherent in all imaging sensors. Form FactorCompact fourinch diameter design provides minimal obstruction needed for Fastar f/2 imaging.The round symmetrical aluminium cast body resembles the obstruction of thesecondary mirror of a Cassegrain telescope ensuring round star with minimallight diffraction. Additionally the spacing to sensor is the same distance asmost DSLR cameras allowing compatibility with most standard DSLR t-adapters.
Full ControlCelestronAstroFX software takes you step-by-step from taking images to processing thefinal result. AstroFX gives you full control of your camera from temperatureregulation, exposure control as well as computer assisted focusing for easyimage acquisition. AstroFX knows just what to do with your images andcalibration frames to create a final master image that’s been stacked,stretched, sharpened, saturated and ready to share with your friends in a snap.
