The Levenhuk T300 PLUS digital camera is a recommended accessory for all astronomy enthusiasts. If you install it on a telescope, you can take photographs of the night sky and record videos of your observations of the planets and the Moon. This camera is compatible with any type of telescope that has a 1.25'' focuser.
To start taking images, simply place the digital camera in the focuser of your telescope and connect it to your computer via a USB cable. The camera will use this cable to transfer the image to the screen in real time and to recharge the camera while taking images. To further process images, you will need to install special software (included) that will allow you to edit and enhance the images you have recorded.
This 3 Mpx digital camera provides images with a resolution of 2048 x 1536 pixels. Thanks to its high sensitivity, images always appear sharp and bright, even when photographing star clusters and nebulae.
It is delivered with a CD that contains special software to edit the images you have previously saved: enlarge them, crop them, change the contrast, etc.
Make sure your computer meets the necessary system requirements. Compatible with Mac OS, Linux, Windows.
In the event that the software does not run on your computer, please contact us and indicate your operating system and its version (for Linux: platform and kernel version).
