Furthermore, this \u003cb\u003eultra-modern\u003c\/b\u003e camera can also be used as an \u003cb\u003eautoguider\u003c\/b\u003e, for example, to actively track the main astro camera with SLR or CCD. Therefore, it is an \u003cb\u003eall-rounder camera\u003c\/b\u003e that provides \u003cb\u003esuper sharp and high-resolution planetary images\u003c\/b\u003e. The high \u003cb\u003e4K resolution of 3840x2160 pixels\u003c\/b\u003e ensures the best possible image results.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\n\nSensor\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe secret to the high light sensitivity lies in the new \u003cb\u003eback-illuminated Exmor CMOS sensor\u003c\/b\u003e. This boosts the \u003cb\u003equantum efficiency up to 77% at 533 nm\u003c\/b\u003e, which means extremely high light output and thus particularly bright and high-contrast photos. In addition, the particularly low noise level of this new chip generation provides exceptionally high brilliance, and active cooling is not required. However, this astro camera has an elaborate internal aluminum structure for heat dissipation and a fan that can be activated by software. The high native pixel resolution of 3840x2160 allows detailed planetary images as well as very beautiful overview images of the moon in combination with suitable telescopes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\n\nSolar Photography\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThis camera is also highly recommended for solar photography. In particular, Lunt LS40 THa solar telescopes with their short focal length, in combination with this planetary camera with a large sensor, allow excellent overview images of the sun.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eImportant note: Always use a suitable solar filter or a special solar telescope for observing and photographing the sun. Otherwise, there is a risk of immediate blindness and damage to the camera\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\n\nSoftware\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe included professional Explore-Capture software not only offers the necessary basic functions for image and video recording, but also many useful special functions for post-capture image processing and guider setup. Functions such as live viewing, exposure settings, white balance, dark frame subtraction, stacking, time-lapse recordings, and much more can be individually configured. It is precisely the very mature software that truly facilitates your entry into astrophotography. With the automatic settings, you can already generate absolutely presentable results without extensive prior knowledge. If you wish, simply disable the automatic settings and gradually experiment with individual professional settings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\n\nAutomatic Tracking Control\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nConnect the camera directly to the ST4 port of your telescope mount, and you will have fully automatic tracking control. In this way, multi-minute exposures are possible without the stars generating unwanted streaks due to the always-present tracking fluctuations of a telescope mount. An appropriate ST-4 connection cable is even included with the astronomy camera. Due to the high light sensitivity of the camera, you will always find a suitable guide star, even with very short exposure times.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\n\nConnections\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFor connecting to telescopes, guide scopes or off-axis guiders, the camera has a 1.25\" barrel with a 1.25\" filter thread (M28.5x0.6) and a large T2 connection thread (M42x0.75) directly on the body.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\n\nNotes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot a standalone camera. A computer with Windows 10 or 11 is required for photography and autoguiding.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAutoguiding software is not included. PHD2 Guiding, GuideDog, Metaguide, Guidemaster (free) or AstroArt, MaxIm DL (paid) can be used, among others. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDOWNLOAD PHD2-Guiding\u003c\/b\u003e: https:\/\/openphdguiding.org\/\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\n\u003cb\u003eDOWNLOAD GuideDog\u003c\/b\u003e: http:\/\/barkosoftware.com\/GuideDog\/index.html \u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDOWNLOAD the latest camera software and drivers\u003c\/b\u003e: https:\/\/www.touptek-astro.com\/downloads\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eExample Photos\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nCreated by Lóránd Fényes in Hungary:\u003cbr\u003e\n\nhttps:\/\/fenyeslorand.hu\/naprendszerunk\/\u003cbr\u003e\nhttps:\/\/fenyeslorand.hu\/explore_scientific_4k_review\/\u003cbr\u003e\nhttps:\/\/fenyeslorand.hu\/asztrofotok\/\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nHighly light-sensitive 4K USB 3.0 color camera\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nCamera type: EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC G3CMOS08300KPA color\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nSensor: IMX585 Exmor CMOS, back-illuminated\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nSensor size: 11.14 x 6.26 mm\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nImage diagonal: 12.86 mm\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nPixel size: 2.9 µm x 2.9 µm\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nMegapixels: 8.3 MP\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nST-4 compatible autoguider: Yes\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nHousing: Aluminum, CNC machined\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nCamera connection: 1.25'' (31.7 mm)\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nCamera connection thread: T2 (M42x0.75 mm) and 1.25'' filter thread\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nPC connection: USB 3.0\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nCamera weight: 0.3 kg\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nSoftware: EXPLORE Capture included\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nCamera drivers and ASCOM, and SDK included\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nOperating system: WINDOWS 10\/11\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\nINCLUDED\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n4K Astro Camera\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nCamera Cover\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n2m USB 3.0 Cable\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n2m ST-4 Autoguiding Cable\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nEXPLORE Capture Software\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nDrivers and SDK\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nManual in English and German\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n?","brand":"Explore Scientific","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52791586554199,"sku":"510535","price":520.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/6198\/6860\/files\/0510535_M_1.jpg?v=1770989617","url":"https:\/\/astrotelescopios.com\/en-uk\/products\/camara-guider-8-3-mp-ii-explore-scientific-4k-deep-sky","provider":"Astro Telescopios","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
