Camera Deep Sky Astro 26MP

Indicates the type or construction of the chip.

Specifies the edge length of the mostly square pixels that make up a camera sensor.

The resolution of a sensor is expressed as the total number of pixels. In digital cameras it is usually specified in megapixels. However, the specification of the number of single pixels in a vertical and horizontal row is more precise, for example 2048x2048.

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 interface is the type of connection or cable between the device (e.g. a camera) and computer, such as: USB, RS232, firewire or analogue video.

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

The minimum exposure time, in seconds, that is possible with this camera.

Used to connect a filter to the accessory.

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.
