Why do I choose ASI185MC?
ASI85MC cameras are designed for astronomical photography. The slightly larger sensor,
extremely low read noise , high sensitivity and high frame rates make this new camera a very good
choice for planetary imaging, it also comes with a 2.5mm all sky lens which can provide a nearly
170
°
view of the sky.
The excellent performance and multifunctional usage will impress you a lot!
TEC cooling will help to reduce dark current noise for long exposures. For short exposures, such
as under one second, the dark current noise is very low. However, cooling is recommended for
DSO imaging when long exposures are required.
