QHYCCD QHY5III715C: Ultra-High Resolution Color Camera for Precise Imaging
Key Features:
Exceptional Resolution and Sensitivity: The QHY5III715C features an ultra-high resolution, back-illuminated color sensor, offering remarkably low read noise for superior image quality.
Compact Sensor Size: Equipped with a 1/2.8-inch optical format sensor, making it particularly suitable for smaller, short focal length refractors.
4K Resolution with Fine Pixels: Boasts a 4K resolution with tiny 1.45um pixels, providing detailed images and making it ideal for capturing intricate celestial details.
Advanced NIR Capability: The latest sensor technology includes deeper photodiode pixel wells, enhancing sensitivity to red and near-infrared (NIR) light and equalizing peak sensitivity across visible and NIR spectrums.
Large DDR3 Image Buffer: Comes with a 512MB DDR3 image buffer, effectively reducing computer transmission pressure, which is vital for planetary photography involving extensive data capture.
Versatile Top Adapter Design: The top adapter glass can be easily switched, offering flexibility for using different filters, even when using lenses.
Convenient Filter Compatibility: Includes a basic top adapter with 1.25-inch threads, compatible with standard filters for various imaging requirements.
Enhanced USB Interface: Utilizes the USB3.2 Gen1 Type-C interface for improved durability and flexibility, a significant update from the previous USB3.0 Type-B interface.
Quality Cable Recommendation: Advises using QHYCCD's official standard Type-C data cable to ensure reliable camera performance and prevent issues caused by inferior cables.
Universal ST-4 Guiding Interface: Features a universal ST-4 compatible guiding interface, allowing for easy replacement of guiding cables if needed.
Status Indicator LED: Includes a multi-colored status indicator at the back of the camera for easy diagnostics of operational statuses, designed to be non-intrusive during normal imaging activities.
