- Ultra-high sensitivity and low read noise for autoguiding and imaging
- IMX185 sensor with 3.75um pixels works well for imaging planets, Moon and Sun, and brighter deep-sky objects
- Data transfer rate of 100fps at full resolution of 1920x1200
- Compact, thermally efficient housing fits in 1.25” eyepiece holder
- Robust aircraft-spec 5-pin socket for secure connection to external devices
1. Fast Data Transfer
The QHY5III-series are fast and sensitive astronomy cameras and autoguiders. They use a 5Gbps USB3.0 interface and have a maximum 350MByte/s transfer speed of image frames, ideal for high speed imaging of fast-rotating planets.
2. Advanced Heat Design
QHY5III-series cameras incorporate an advanced thermal design that helps transfer heat generated by the sensor and electronics to the metal case of the camera quickly. Heat is dissipated by the cooling fins and by the eyepiece holder of your telescope.
3. Compact Robust Design
Like the QHY5II-series, the QHY5III-series cameras feature a compact body that slides into a 1.25” eyepiece holder. Each camera also includes an adjustable location ring to make it confocal with an eyepiece. The QHY5III-series also includes an extremely robust and stable 5-pin aircraft-spec socket for a secure, solid connection between the camera and other devices. The cameras come with a 5-pin-LEMO-to-RJ11 guide cable for autoguiding.
4. Ultra-high Sensitivity and Low Read Noise for Solar System and DSO Imaging
The QHY5III185C is a 1/1.9inch format, 1920 x 1200, USB 3.0, color CMOS Camera with ultra-high sensitivity and very low read noise. With a pixel size of 3.75um, this camera works well for color imaging of planets at longer focal lengths, the Moon and Sun, and brighter deep-sky objects. The maximum data transfer rate is 100fps at full resolution. The CMOS sensor is a SONY IMX185 noted for its very good SNR1 score.
Software support includes: EZPlanetary, SharpCAP, FireCapture, Native WDM, BroadCast WDM and ASCOM.
