Kamera G-1200-KMB Mono Guider

Indicates the type or construction of the chip.

Specifies the total number of pixels. With this handy value you can compare the resolutions of different cameras.

Colour cameras produce quick results, monochrome cameras capture more detail.

The bit depth is also referred to as the dynamic range of a chip. The number of bits in a picture also determines how many different shades of grey can be displayed. The depth of the image information depends directly on it. In an image taken with 1 bit depth, you will only see black and white dots. In this case, you can hardly call it a picture. Many details that the naked eye can discern are missing. 16 bits means the presentation of more than 65.000 shades of grey.

The maximum exposure time in minutes that is possible with this camera.

A camera that takes over the automatic tracking control during exposure, and corrects it independently.

Specifies the product's connection or connection thread on the telescope connection end. The same adapter dimension must always be available on the telescope.

A thread common to video cameras. To connect to a telescope a C mount to 1.25" adapter is required.

Each CCD camera tends to produce image noise, an interference that appears as a kind of unattractive grain on the image. The issue is especially important with longer exposure times. In addition to the general noise, there is also a noise generated by the process of reading the image: the read noise.

The range of outside temperatures at which the instrument optimally operates.

This refers to whether a filter wheel is integrated in the camera housing, or is included in the scope of delivery as an external filter wheel.
