Color Planetary And All Sky Camera

QHYCCD is pleased to announce a new addition to its line of high speed, high QE, low noise, planetary cameras.

The QHY-5-III-485C uses Sony's new IMX485, back-illuminated, 8.4 megapixel color CMOS sensor with an array of 3864 x 2176 pixels at 2.9um. This new camera makes a great planetary combo with the newly released QHY-5-III-462C and doubles as a high-resolution 8.3 MP All Sky camera with the included 2.5mm fisheye lens.

Catalog for Baader Standard domes

New Catalog, important informationen and contact form

Since we were not able to present domes at trade fairs this year, we used the time to realize the first complete catalog for Baader standard domes (AllSky and Classic Slit-Domes) in the company's history.
Are you seriously interested in a Baader dome? We have also created a page with further information on the requirements for the installation of Baader domes, including starting prices and contact form.
This and further information, also about our new dome production facilities, can be found in our blog.

High quality camera sets with QHY-5-III-462C camera

Especially interesting for deep sky and planetary imagers: QHY 462C camera (VIS/NIR) with Baader FlipMirror II Star Diagonal. Center a planet in the eyepiece and switch to the QHY for planetary photography with the flip mirror - or connect the QHY to the Off-Axis-Guider and use it as autoguider for deep sky photography with a DSLR or CCD camera!

Our planetary bundle with the Baader Q-Turret Eyepiece Set deliver outstandig sharpness and contrast. With one twist you can switch between the three high-quality Classic Ortho eyepieces, which are the first choice of planetary observers because of their image sharpness, and the QHY. Also in the set: A 32mm Classic Plössl and a 2.25x Barlow.

New Location, cheaper Pricing

Significant price decreases for many products

The increased capacity on the new 57-acre campus, reduced overhead, and manufacturing innovations allowed PlaneWave to take a fresh look at pricing.
