QHY533 M/C CMOS Camera (various versions available)
The monochrome version scores with a quantum efficiency of over 90% at 450 nanometers with the narrow band photographers, because here are the interesting wavelengths of O-III and H-Beta. A new filter wheel is available and also the monochrome version with filter wheel can be focused with telephoto lenses at the standard backfocus of 55 mm.
CMOS technology, which is characterized by low noise and high readout speeds, has revolutionized astronomical imaging technology in recent years. The QHY533M/C sets a new generation of back side illuminated sensors with a pixel size of 3.76 x 3.76 µm, which belong to the same family of sensor technology as the much more expensive QHY600 and QHY268 models. They feature non-existent amplifier glow, very low dark current and readout noise while maintaining extremely high sensitivity. The IMX 533 a 9 megapixel CMOS image sensor with 15.97 mm diagonal (11.3 mm square) and 3003 x 3003 pixels, which are read out with 14 bit data depth via the AD converter and is available in both monochrome and color versions.
