Imaging Source DMK 21AU618.AS Monochrome USB CCD Camera C/CS Mount DMK21AU618AS

Well suited to black and white astrophotography, The Imaging Source DMK21AU618.AS Monochrome USB Astronomy Camera aids in capturing very fast imaging sequences. Capturing loss less and uncompressed images sequences is made possible with the IC Capture.AS which is a comprehensive software package. With this comprehensive software you can also write the image sequences to a disk as AVI files or as a series of singular bitmaps.

Included with the DMK21AU618.AS is a monochrome Sony ICX618ALA progressive scan CCD chip. This CCD chip produces a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels with its 1/4" format and can assist in very long exposure time, up to 60 minutes, with minimal noise. Because of the tremendously high quality Sony ICX618ALA CCD chip, it can also be used in other scientific, medical and industrial image processing applications.

The Imaging Source DFK 21AU618.AS Color USB Astronomy Camera with IR Cut Filter, 640x480 Pixel Resolution, C/CS Mount

• Color Interpolation: For visualization applications, it does not make sense to view the RAW image stream from the CCD chip. It must be interpolated, before it may be viewed or saved in common formats. IC Capture.AS perform color interpolation, thus reducing the load on the DFK 21AU618.AS's processor
• IR Cut Filter As Standard: Unlike the human eye, CCD chips are sensitive to near infrared light (wavelengths over 700 nm). The DFK 21AU618.AS ships with an IR cut filter as standard and is thus suited to applications in which these wavelengths would lead to interference or undesirable results
• High Speed Data Transfer Via USB: In order to transfer the vast amount of data created by the stream of uncompressed and lossless color images to the host PC, you need a very high speed bus. Hence, the DFK 21AU618.AS is fitted with a fast USB connector

The Imaging Source DFK 21AU618.AS Color USB Astronomy Camera is ideally suited to color astrophotography, in which very fast image sequences should be captured. The camera ships with IC Capture.AS, a comprehensive software package with which you can capture lossless and uncompressed images sequences and write them to disk as AVI files, or as a series of singular bitmaps.The DFK 21AU618.AS ships with the color Sony ICX618AQA progressive scan CCD chip. With its 1/4" format, the CCD chip produces a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels. Even at very long exposure times - up to 60 minutes exposure are possible - noise is minimal. Thanks to this extremely high quality, the Sony ICX618AQA CCD chip is also often used in other scientific, industrial and medical image processing applications.
