ASI 6200 MC Pro Color Camera

The updated version The ASI6200 series offers the following improvements:

• Improved motherboard, improved performance thanks to reduced read noise and faster image speeds
• New matte surface for a more professional and higher quality look

The ZWO ASI 6200 MM/MC Pro : a powerful, state-of-the-art astronomical camera

ZWO has taken another step forward with this new camera. Thanks to its full-frame sensor with a With a diagonal of approximately 43 mm , astronomical photographs with huge image fields can be taken.

One of the most outstanding features of the ASI 6200 MM/MC Pro is its sensational light sensitivity. Its QE is 80% thanks to the technology BACK ILLUMINATION and the amplifier has very low brightness. This makes this camera a very suitable choice for all astronomical applications, but especially for deep-sky astrophotography.

Other advantages and features of the ASI 6200 MM/MC Pro camera:

• USB 3.0 for fast download (also works with USB 2.0)
• DDR3 buffer memory for stable data transfer with USB 2.0: minimizes amplifier brightness
• Powerful Peltier cooling up to 35°C under ambient conditions
• One of Sony's most light-sensitive CMOS sensors
• High resolution thanks to the 3.76 µm pixels, making it ideal for fast and sharp telescopes, such as apochromatic, Hyperstar, Celestron Faststar or fast Newtonian telescopes.
• High sensitivity (QE of approx. 80%) makes it an ideal astronomical camera for faint objects
• 16-bit ADC, which allows achieving the same depth as CCD cameras, but with much greater sensitivity.

Areas of application for the camera:

• Deep-sky photography (nebulae and galaxies): Thanks to its high sensitivity, images of nebulae and galaxies can be obtained in just a few seconds. The camera can be cooled to 35°C below ambient temperature, further reducing the already low noise. By increasing the gain, exposure times can be reduced to less than 30 seconds, eliminating the effects of tracking inaccuracies.
• Lunar and planetary photography: Extremely short exposure times, thanks to the camera's high sensitivity, freeze distortions caused by atmospheric effects. The sensor's high resolution allows for capturing a wealth of detail, even with shorter telescope focal lengths. It can also be used for video astronomy.

ZWO ASI cameras with active cooling require an additional 12-volt power supply. If you do not have a suitable power supply, you will find it in the accessories recommendations.

A 12V, 3A–5A DC power supply with a 5.5×2.1mm plug and center positive terminal is required, or an 11–14V lithium battery. Please note that using a power supply outside this voltage range will likely cause irreparable damage to the camera.

Advantages:

• Sony IMX455 CMOS sensor
• High sensitivity to light
• No amplifier glow (Amp Glow)
• Resolution: 9576 x 6388 Pixel
• Full format: 36 x 24 millimeters
