Camera ASI 130 MM

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

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

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.

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

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

This camera takes not just one picture, but a certain number per second. Often this value is given the abbreviation "fps" or frames per second. With a high number of images, you can use the advantage of "freezing" the image and the seeing and thus later creating the perfect image.

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.

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.
